The same Brendan Carr who wanted to investigate NBC because Kamala was on SNL? The same Brendan Carr who wanted to dismantle independent fact checking and accused them of being a “censorship cartel?” Periodic reminder that the corruption is a feature, not a bug.

Arlington Cemetery is hallowed ground. A final resting place for our fallen heroes who were brave enough to serve. How dare this five-time draft dodger dishonor them by trying to erect a monument to his own vanity? Veterans will not let him get away with it.

Subverting democracy isn't new to John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, or Amy Coney Barrett. All three were on George W. Bush's "Florida Recount Team," which lay the groundwork for stopping vote counting in Florida—and Bush v. Gore, the politically-motivated SCOTUS decision that gave Bush the election.

US military spending isn't just DOD. As David Vine writes in @motherjones.com, it is spread across at least 15 other federal agencies, and the total likely exceeds the combined military budgets of every other nation on Earth. These figures are "likely to stun most Americans,” notes one expert.

Think Trump’s $1.5 trillion Pentagon budget request is outrageous? This'll blow your mind.
We already spend at least that much on the US military each year, and maybe a lot more.
