January 6th participant Pamela Hemphill, who refused President Trump's pardon: "Once I got away from the MAGA cult and started educating myself about January the 6th, I knew what I did was wrong...I am guilty, and I own that guilt...I had fallen for the president’s lies."
Five years ago, our great American democracy was put to the test, and Donald Trump failed it.
The danger he poses was clear then, and it remains clear now. We must never forget that.
This Administration is increasingly using the weight of government power to suppress lawful expression.
But that does not give the FCC the authority, the ability, or the constitutional right to police content or punish broadcasters for speech the government does not like.
Free speech. Separation of Powers. The Rule of law.
Our Constitution is the foundation of our nation.
We can not—and will not—allow anyone to trample on it.

Learning that three officers were killed in York County where I worked for many years as a prosecutor, and still call home, is unfathomable.
This loss is a heart-wrenching reminder of the sacrifices police officers and other first responders make every single day.
NPR obtained bodycam footage showing Jared Wise beating police officers on Jan. 6 and yelling “kill ’em” as rioters attacked.
He now works as a senior adviser in Trump’s DOJ.
“Back the blue,” right?
Jan. 6 resulted in more than 1,600 people charged, including 600 for assaulting/ impeding law enforcement. 140 officers were injured, one who died the following day. And 4 responding officers have since died by suicide. This week’s pardons do not honor those officers’ sacrifice.
In 2020, we mapped out the danger zones that will close in on Americans over the next 30 years — combining climate data with wildfire projections by US Forest Service researchers.
See what changes are in store for your county.
