They were stupid to come after Markos and his community. Which they found out. www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...dailykos.comThe DOJ came after Daily Kos. Here’s the full story.Last year, on June 26, I wrote a story headlined, “Trump’s DOJ is targeting Daily Kos.” At the time, I couldn’t explain what was happening. A gag order prevented it. Now I can. 053
