Today we got access to a smoking gun document from ICE that shows how it is weaponized against progressive groups registering voters while building a voter suppression database.

Famed Lawmaker Slams Trump Over Outrageous New Obsession
President Donald Trump has ignited a political firestorm with a controversial new initiative aimed at revisiting the historical narrative surrounding Richard Nixon and the Watergate scandal. This latest maneuver has prompted sharp criticism from Elizabeth Holtzman, a former congresswoman renowned for her role in Nixon's impeachment, who labeled the effort as "beyond stupid." Sources report that Trump’s Justice Department is undertaking an effort to argue that Nixon’s resignation following the Watergate investigation was the product of prosecutorial misconduct.

If Epstein did nothing wrong, if it is all lies, if everyone named is innocent, full transparency costs nothing. Instead: redacted files, a prosecutor who resigned rather than manufacture charges, and Trump's own ally saying he personally ordered a cover up. Innocent people do not need secrecy.

Have to imagine it's a coincidence that a president with historically low levels of approval and an open disdain for democracy is turning the White House into a fortress and building structures with snipers and drones and championing omnipresence surveillance and directing murderous secret police.

Something is deeply wrong when Trump’s net worth is skyrocketing but families across the country can’t afford gas, groceries, and health care. Donald Trump’s culture of open corruption is leaving Americans out to dry while he and his friends get rich.

"Clean energy is an expensive luxury favored by wooly-headed liberals" has a 30-year head start & the full weight of the RW media machine behind it. A few Dems saying "clean is cheap" a few times -- even as other Dems back off from their clean-energy commitments -- is not going to turn that around.
