The Secretary of the Navy, John Phelan, went to pay his respects to the servicemembers and civilians lost in Pearl Harbor on “June 7th, 1941.” It looks good, except Pearl Harbor happened on December 7th. It seems Mr. Phelan skipped that part of history class. Only the best people, right?

Trump is abusing his power to punish truth-tellers like Chris Krebs & Miles Taylor—issuing executive orders calling for DOJ investigations against them. This is authoritarian retribution, plain & simple. I warned this would happen & that he would falsely claim “treason.” This is deranged.

Sometimes, when he fails badly enough, Trump can be forced to do the thing he says he never does: back down. Today is just one more turn on the roller coaster - but it is more evidence of why we can't give up or let up.

It is the second confirmed measles death in the U.S. in a decade. If the outbreak continues at the current pace, the nation may lose its “elimination” status.
