Americans and feeble American media have allowed their country to become a corrupt autocracy, a faded rose from days gone by.

Many judges do in fact unblinkingly genuflect at Trump's incantation of national security, particularly on the Supreme Court.

Trump doubling down on "craziness" is a euphemism for inciting insurrection and torching the rule of law.

Republicans in Congress and aspiring Senate Republicans such as Mike Rogers in Michigan wants war in Iran so long as they can deny the reality of its impact on the US.

More confirmation, if any was needed, that Trump has completely politicized the intelligence community.

One in a continuing series of reasons why control of the Senate by Democrats - with unblinking leadership - is an essential step towards reclaiming democracy.

Republicans wrecked the free market with tariffs and another stupid war and are now looking for government intervention and bailouts to fix the problem but the Democrats are communists.

All will likely proceed according to the rule of law, until the appellate phase where the panel composition will guide the outcome, and if an outcome unfavorable to Trump is still in force after that, Trump's friends on the Supreme Court will perform their usual work for him.

Not mincing words anymore in Michigan. Calling the dunce the dunce was something Establishment Democrats had been loathe to do, and it allowed the dunce to get re-elected.

Susan Collins is the tip of the iceberg that sank when Trump wiped out anti-corruption investigators at the FBI and prosecutors at DOJ and installed political hacks at the top. www.forbes.com/sites/alison...

Pete Hegseth is a dangerously incompetent SecDef who's done more harm to the US military than anyone else in modern history. His political purges ⬇️ of highly experienced and qualified leaders will take decades to overcome and make America MUCH LESS SAFE. His Iran war is a DISASTER. Impeach Hegseth.

Going to need to bring back the J6 Select Committee-style of inquiry, but on steroids. And to bring back inherent contempt enforcement power, in both chambers. Not sure if establishment Party leadership is cut from the right cloth for that.

I have a trade deficit with woman who used to own my house. I paid her thousands of dollars for her home and she paid me nothing. Now, all I have is a house worth thousand of dollars. I could have saved those thousands of dollars if I lived on a bench in the park. It's just simple Economics.

Correction - Trump, not American, security guarantees have been demonstrably unreliable. A briber has no recourse in law or in public opinion to force the bribe taker, or bribe takers family, to endorce their perceived bargain.

There have been so many impeachable offenses, but lying about how you were a hero on a day that 2,753 people died in NYC in the 9/11 disaster—when you were on the other side of town, safely calling local media to brag about how you now had the tallest downtown building—is such a despicable one
