This morning, the Justice Department went after nearly an entire state's federal bench, all at once. The judges had said the government wasn't following court orders. The response was to try to remove the judges. Here's why every American should be paying attention. www.jackhopkinsnow.com

Inciting a coup against your own country is the very definition of TREASON, full stop. There should be a law that prevents traitors from running for office.

Abbott created the Texas data center gold rush w/massive tax breaks. Now, during an election, he suddenly wants to act concerned. Gina Hinojosa calls bullshit: “Greg Abbott is messaging different… Everybody knows that come November 4th, the day after the election, he’ll sing a new song.”

A simple Google search says Jamie Raskin, Richard Blumenthal, & Gary Peters all took oversight actions last year re treatment of Tate brothers. Then Yassamin Ansari wrote a letter on July 23--again more oversight. None of those efforts made Moira Donegan's July 27 column claiming Dems were "silent."

Here is a fact: Lindsey Graham was an early proponent of the Iraq invasion and a vocal, steadfast supporter of subsequent troop surges, thereby making him responsible, in part, for several hundred thousand unnecessary deaths. A monstrous legacy.

Donald Trump is mentally deranged. He’s a danger to the U.S. He’s a danger to the globe. He does not belong in this position of power—in control of the massive U.S. military—and he should be removed from office. This is not a joke. And his GOP enablers are responsible for abdicating their duty.
