We cannot accept the reckless use of deadly force by federal agents as normal.
There is a pattern of this administration misleading the public and withholding key facts after these killings.
The public, and all who knew and loved the victim, deserve a full, independent investigation.

Evidence has mounted that the supposed “gash” in the Reflecting Pool is...
...tire tracks Trump caused by insisting his many-ton presidential convoy drive on the pool’s fragile surface.
Why? He was too lazy to walk.
Per his own edict, he must now do 10 years in federal prison.
Buttigieg: So let me ask you a version of the question that I asked everybody when I was running around this state eight years ago, when nobody could say my name right, which is: What’s it going to be like the first time the sun comes up over this country and the current president has permanently left the political scene?
It’s an appealing thing to remember that that day will come, but it also represents a huge challenge. Because what do we do then? Then what?
The answer to that is what we’ve got to hold in our minds right now to campaign and to win—and, most importantly, to govern. Because we need to immediately get to work to build something better.
Like a political system where everyone’s vote counts the same, and the person who gets the most votes wins the election. It looks like a Supreme Court that is legitimate and trustworthy in the eyes of the American people. It looks like a Congress composed of representatives who actually represent the people they serve, capable of standing up to abuses from other parts of the government. And it means state and federal governments capable of standing up for people’s rights.
The right to live your life as you see fit, so long as you’re not hurting anyone else. The right to carry a sign or write an op-ed or criticize your government. The right to make your own health care decisions. The right to be who you are and love who you love and raise your family in peace.
That’s what it looks like. And it’s not too much to ask. And it’s not too much to ask for public integrity.
Communism explained to kids:
- Communism fell in 1989 after proving itself a failed system completely incompatible with human happiness.
- No credible person in their right mind is a communist anymore.
- Falsely bringing back communism as a current existential enemy of the United States is the cynical move of an empty political party devoid of ideas.
-It's the kind of thing you do when your party itself is an existential enemy of the United States.
You want to send MAGA spinning out of control today? Show them this and let them know that Bad Bunny's amazing Super Bowl halftime show was nominated for 9 Emmys (a record). Then ask how Kid Rock is doing 😂.
Don't fall for Elon Musk's gaslighting.
There is a massive, life-or-death difference between well-planned budget cuts and a sudden, reckless halt to promised medical aid.
Musk is actively lying about the fatal consequences of his USAID cuts. The US is not obligated to fund healthcare for the entire planet, but if a nation decides to pull back its global aid, it must be done responsibly. Ripping away funding mid-treatment means you are directly responsible for the preventable deaths that follow.
Instead of owning up to the fallout, Musk is flooding X with dishonest spin. He first challenged critics to name even one person whose death he caused. When people actually did, he immediately moved the goalposts, claiming that any spending cut inevitably causes deaths.
He is a dishonest charlatan trying to hide the fact that his chaotic decisions got thousands of vulnerable children and adults killed. That will be his lasting legacy
Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas was caught sneaking out of speaker Mike Johnson’s office.
A Supreme Court justice should not have a private meeting with the speaker of the house.
What were they talking about?
Trump has turned the White House into a 24/7 corruption operation. This is a national crisis.
Trump thinks the public will stop paying attention.
So I went to the Senate floor to call his bluff. I told the ENTIRE STORY of his 500 days of corruption.
