Putin is the one who started the war by invading. He's the one who should have and could have stopped it at any time.

What did ask Putin to stop doing?

From the peaks of JFK "ask not" speech to this weak and embarrassing drivel from Lutnick. How far we have fallen...

I used to have a sort of reverence for the Supreme Court - even when I disagreed with a decision. But no more. This court is so partisan and corrupt, it's disgusting. I can't wait for some accountability so we can return to a place where the rule of law and real justice matter.

Sad manifestation of how weak Hegseth and others are making the US. Truth used to be something we valued (even when we didn't fully live up to the ideal). Now we run from the truth and try to hide it from others and ourselves. That's what cowards and weaklings do.

I agree. I used to be a strong supporter of ADL. Not that long ago they fought against bigotry in general, including against Muslims. I no longer give to ADL because of their turn against their own proud history. It's very sad to see.

The assurance should be that no payouts will go to insurrectionists related to their prosecution - whether there's a formal fund or not.

Masked government agents kidnapping and killing people off the streets... Massive corruption and self-enrichment by Trump and his gang.. Weaponization and corruption of DoJ.. But Trump's popularity down only because of war and inflation? Wow

The same idea applies - Russia needs to withdraw to its own borders and stop attacking.

It's clear that CBS doesn't want to do "News" anymore. People interested in actual news will need to get it from another spot - likely independent media.

Totally agree about the movie "Pressure". It was fabulous. Your other point is on target too. The movie was about competence and character -- two things our current DoD leadership do not exemplify.

Is idiocy now one of the required criteria for right-wing types? Before MAGA, it didn't used to be. I remember people like Buckley, for example.

It's not just about this one ruling. The amazingly bad reasoning in the ruling by the 4 GOP members indicates that they valued partisanship over the law. On that basis alone, we should look at removing them. Even if it doesn't help with the redistricting itself.

Whether Trump is a traitor or just acts like one is not as important as the fact that he's betraying America in favor of Russia with amazing regularity.

Virginia resident here and, man, is the advertising for this weak on the Dem side. They should make a Contract for America style promise to enact a nationwide ban on gerrymandering (plus other restore democracy items). That will help reassure those against gerrymandering and help them vote yes.

Trump called for genocide. His acceptance of the ceasefire doesn't change that. He needs to be removed from office.

Saying your vote for a racist or bigot doesn't make you one is the modern day version of "I bought Playboy magazine for the articles."

All of my group chats are responding to Homan’s announcement by asking everyone to double down because: 1. ICE is still out there and abducting people today. We can’t trust the occupation is over until we actually see it. 2. People are going to be in an economic crisis for a very long time.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Come on - this is ridiculous. ICE needs to be disbanded and you don't even want to push the obvious things? Like arrests only with warrant, no masks, no blocking of congressional visits and, yeah, compliance with law by releasing all the Epstein files.. Do better.

@markwarner.bsky.social @kaine.senate.gov This is why we need to disband ICE not just add a few rules. This administration is totally lawless and ICE is just the worst of the bunch. You add a few rules and they'll just violate them.

If ICE is too cowardly or embarrassed to identify themselves, then they should disband. Even the Nazis weren't masked.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free
