Trump stopped the FBI investigation of Susan Collins. Think of it this way: every vote she made was approved by Trump because Trump stopped the investigation. The votes of Susan Collins did not represent her constituents. Corruption.

ProPublica dropped the first story in a new series on corruption in Congress, and it starts with Sen. Susan Collins. A defense contractor illegally funneled $150,000 to a pro-Collins PAC. The company’s CEO later pleaded guilty to unlawful campaign contributions.

Basically, the only reason why it is playing out like this is because China is not yet ready to step into the role of global leader, even as America surrenders the position.

Buttigieg in Texas: Many Texas Democrats, and a lot of independents, and quite a few of what I'm fond of calling the future former Republicans, are fed up with the carnival of chaos and corruption going on in Washington and in Austin, and are ready to make change in just a few weeks.

The USG crusade to destroy the ICC seems primarily motivated by a desire to shield Israeli officials like Netanyahu and Gallant from accountability. Worth recalling that those two face charges related to using starvation as a method of warfare in Gaza.

Hegseth has spouted off too many times about getting rid of restrictions on "war fighters" and wimpish sensitivity about civilian casualties for me to give him any benefit of the doubt. He did exactly what he said he'd do, hit a soft target that he hoped would break the hearts of the Iranians. /1

25 years ago today, George W. Bush signed the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force into law. Barbara Lee was the only member of Congress to vote against it, warning it would be a blank check for forever wars. History has proven her lonely and courageous vote right.

Dear Journalists, Against conventional wisdom do not immediately fight to get your First Amendment right restored. File a TRO PREVENTING Trump from speaking to ANY MEMBERS of the media until a judge can review the case. If Trump can't speak, he will cave.

George Bush and his administration knowingly misled the public into a wrongful, immoral, and illegal war. The main difference between then and not with Trump’s war, is that the Bushites busted their butts to try and convince people that the war was justified.

So prescient. Who can look at the disastrous and unnecessary Iran War, with its crippling of the world economy and its U.S. war crimes, and not conclude that we have indeed—at least at times—“become the evil that we deplore.”

I’m so damn tired of people saying that others “pushed” Trump into going to war. The “neocons” pushed him, his “advisors” pushed him, or even Netanyahu pushed Trump into this war. Bullshit. HE is the President. HE has agency. HE decided to go to war. HE launched this war. The buck stops with HIM.

Green Street Friends Meeting, a Quaker congregation in Germantown, pledged to spend $50,000 a year for 10 years as part of its reparations work. It’s helping Black Philadelphians become homeowners.
