Today is the Day of the Endangered Lawyer. For the first time, it is focused on the United States. Countries that have been the focus in the past include Iran, Afghanistan, Turkey, and Belarus. This is a stinging indictment on the US. 1/2 prod.cdn.everyaction.com/emails/van/T...

Watch this quick explainer on the Hatch Act and you’ll see just how far the regime has gone—propaganda in airports, partisan emails, and political orders from the top. It’s not “messaging,” it’s a full-blown assault on the law that keeps our government nonpartisan.

Shapiro: I filed that amicus brief last night to make it very clear that the Pennsylvania National Guard is under my command. The way the President has chosen to deploy the Guard in other states—and, in at least one case, deploy the Guard from one state into another—is extremely dangerous.

Jayapal: It is a strange and bizarre time when we literally have a president thinking about plating the ballroom in gold—while he’s thrown 15 million Americans off healthcare, fired over 150,000 federal workers, and is threatening to fire even more if we go into a shutdown.

Why would the DOJ scrub the fact that right-wing extremism is the #1 domestic terror threat in America? Why not acknowledge and confront it? Also why haven't they released the Epstein Files? Also why did Ghislaine Maxwell get a sweetheart deal transfer? These problems won't go away.

They cry “free speech” when it’s hate, violence, and lies. But the second we tell the truth or call them out, suddenly we’ve gone too far. That, my friends, is what you call selective outrage.

I know these “interviews” with Justice Barrett are carefully scripted. But if she’s going to keeping urging Americans to “read the opinions,” and not just commentary, it sure would be nice if someone would ask her what we should do when—as is so often the case these days—there’s no opinion to read…
