New in PN: Retire in peace "McConnell would never be allowed to drive a car, babysit young children, or file his own taxes. Why, then, should a cognitively incapacitated 82-year-old retain one of the most important positions of power within the national government?"
publicnotice.co
Retire in peace
McConnell is the latest example of an incapacitated politician refusing to let go.

I love my community. People are seeing the reality of this reckless police force and they see what it is doing to communities, to children, and to our own sense of faith and trust in our institutions and it cannot continue.

Ross started out video taping with his cell phone in his right hand. When and why did he switch it to his left hand. I think that is the moment he decided to draw his gun. I would like to know exactly when in the time line that switch occurred.

Trump Isn't "Failing Fast" and It's Dangerous to Believe He Is
Courts keep ruling against Trump. Critics mistake this activity for success, the same error that allowed Hungary's Orbán consolidate power while opposition celebrated.

Republican states have ignored federal authority for years without consequence. Democratic states must be equally willing to act first and litigate later. We must dare the federal government to try enforcing its unconstitutional will against half the country at once.

How extreme is the June 7 Memorandum on federalizing the National Guard? One of several issues: It has NO geographic limit. None. No mention of California or any other state. It's open-ended. Now this from President Trump: "Well, we're going to have troops everywhere."⬇️

This isn’t about spending or waste or even policy. They are shrinking the government so it’s easier to control and there’s less accountability.

When asked if he was going to visit the crash site he said, ‘what site? The water? You want me to go swimming?’ This is one of the last pics of the young skaters who died. He’s a sociopath. Anyone who voted for this monster should be ashamed at best.
