The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

I just left the Venezuela briefing. It's worse than you thought. Oil company executives seem to know more about Trump's secret plan to "run" Venezuela than the American people. We need public Senate hearings NOW.

Their idea of “can’t afford it.”
A tweet from the Democrats’ official account includes a chart titled “MATH” with a Republican elephant logo. The chart contrasts what Republicans “CAN AFFORD” versus what they “CAN’T AFFORD.”
Can afford: $40B bailout for Argentina, Trump’s golden ballroom, Qatar jet upgrades, National Guard takeover.
Can’t afford: Health care for Americans, children’s cancer research, SNAP/WIC benefits, and special education programs.

If you want a grimly poetic illustration of what scholars of fascism and imperialism call the 'Boomerang Effect', look no further than the emblematic vehicles of the Global War on Terror, hulking MRAPs and BEARCATs, that now stalk the streets of the US Capitol to securitise civilian populations.

Agreed, and the more we amplify what Booker is doing, the more we make it matter, in public perception and as an example to other elected officials. On the other hand, the more we disparage and tear it down, the more we make it not matter. It's not all up to him.

It isn’t just about the national security implications— it’s about the law. The law says records of gov’t decision making must be kept. Even P2025 knew using Signal is unlawful for gov’t work. If you want to set disappearing messages to decide on a lunch spot— fine. But NOT official business.

I hear you. Bernie Sanders: ‘These are the scariest times in my life.’ Musk controls media. Trump defies courts, freezes funds, and guts agencies. This isn’t just politics—it’s oligarchy and authoritarianism merging into one. If this isn’t a warning, what is?
