They had lawyers, trials, most were given pretrial release, allowed to testify in their own defense, got discovery, could call witnesses, could cross-examine witnesses, could present mitigation at sentencing, and had a right to appeal.

Pete Hegseth is clearly ill-equipped to handle the role of Secretary of Defense. His repeated failure to follow basic operational security procedures jeopardizes the safety and security of our armed forces. He should resign.

We often look back on the seminal moments in our history and wonder "What would I have done?" This is our moment. This is our time. We must stand up. We must speak out. We must do everything we can to stop a President who has every intention of destroying our democracy.

AG Pam Bondi, released a statement saying that attacks on Tesla property were “nothing short of domestic terrorism.” But the people who stormed the Capitol, killing and injuring law enforcement and trying to overthrow an election were "tourists" and "beautiful people."

You guys remember when President Biden revoked Secret Service protection from Don, Eric, and Ivanka? NO? It's because he didn't. Because he's not a petty ass. trump, on the other hand, has removed it from Hunter Biden and Ashley Biden, because being President was never about helping Americans.

The richest man in the world took over $5K out of this guy's bank account, claiming he was dead. The richest man in the world said he was saving money. He was not dead.

I found a ‘dead’ person collecting Social Security in Seattle

“Dead” Ned Johnson turns out to be very much alive. It took him weeks to convince the system he was breathing and to start clawing his benefits back.

The GOP has been told not to host in-person town halls—what are they so afraid of? Hearing from their own constituents? Meanwhile, leaders like Tim Walz are stepping up. He’s hosting a town hall in Iowa, not even in his own district, making sure Americans’ voices are heard.

As predicted, women in New Hampshire had a hard time voting yesterday because of the new proof of citizenship law: “It doesn’t have my married name on it,” she said. Town voting officials then sent her away a second time, to get her marriage certificate. www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2025...

nhpr.org

NH’s new ID requirements send some would-be voters home to grab passports, birth certificates

The law requires all new voters to show proof of their U.S. citizenship. For some, that meant making multiple trips to and from the polls before finally casting a ballot on Tuesday.

Now you actually have a terribly moving economy, and people are hurting. There’s no amount of things that Sean Hannity can say that’s going to pay the bills
