NEW AD: Three years ago today, Ken Paxton’s impeachment trial began. He was impeached by his own party for corruption. But don’t just take our word for it — listen to what his fellow Republicans had to say about his abuse of power.

Today, I was informed that the Department of Defense is firing me for insubordination after I told a CBS reporter that I work for Stars and Stripes - not the Pentagon, not any administration, and not any policy maker.

I consider it a great privilege to live alongside members of the military and share their stories. It's a shame for the institution and service members, who swore to defend the Constitution and deserve right to a free and independent press.

Epstein co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell has custom meals and a comfort puppy in prison. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick kept his job after lying about his ties to Epstein. Todd Blanche was OKd as AG after his Epstein files cover-up. Clearly, Republicans think the rape of children is no big deal.

Think about this position, even if you took it at face value: "After ICE shot and killed two Americans in the streets, I voted to give them more money for 'training' (which led them to shoot and kill two more people) & for body cameras (that they didn't wear when they killed those people)."

Hey, #voters! What are your favorite voting guide sites? I use a few, but one of my favorites is Ballotpedia, especially for local races where info is scarce, and sometimes I'm forced to "choose one" from 3R's, or "non-partisan" candidates (who are never non-partisan). #Florida #PrimaryElections
