Now seems like a swell time to point out that Frontline just released this excellent 11-minute mini-documentary about what happened inside CECOT.

Their closing message to Indiana: change your maps to artificially benefit the President's political party or 'roads will not be paved' as punishment. They are openly saying this. Who would want to live in a country that works like that?

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

Senator Mark Kelly speaks at a press conference amid Hegseth's court martial threat:

"When Trump was driving the Taj Mahal Casino into bankruptcy, I was being shot at over Iraq... When Trump was writing birthday greetings to Epstein, I was the first on the scene to recover the bodies of my fellow astronauts...When Trump was peddling conspiracy theories against President Obama, I was sitting next to my wife's hospital bed...I've been through a lot worse in service to my country. The President and Pete Hegseth are not going to silence me.

Impeachment isn’t an option, it’s a necessity. I know firsthand the lengths Trump is willing to go in order to silence dissent. Impeach, convict, remove. And if our current leaders won’t do it, they need to step aside for people who will: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jo54...

Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone. Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work. Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.
