Years and years of fighting to get a plaque installed honoring the officers who held the line on January 6th. Last week a federal judge dismissed our lawsuit. She said we have no standing. I'm used to losing. I'm not done. www.standingourground.us/p/they-dismi...

YOU NEED TO SEE THIS Rob Bonta (California AG): “We think it’s limitless what he (Trump) will try and what he is capable of. So, if you can imagine it, we have thought of it and we have a plan.” Every attorney general should be planning for this.

The U.S. owes $40 trillion in debt. Everyone has an opinion about why. But there’s one question you almost never hear asked: Who’s actually getting paid?

Shooting Latino immigrants because they’re undocumented is fascism. Being undocumented is not even a criminal offense. It’s civil, like expired plates. But police don’t shoot people for that. Oh—they do if motorist is Black. So, no surprise MAGA supports ICE fascists who shoot Latino immigrants.😐

Zelenskyy: "For first time in Russia’s history, we now hear that its oil industry is running on fumes. Our target is Russia’s ability to finance this war, to drag it out, to make it more brutal & destructive. Russia’s finances & Russia’s production are what must be stopped if Putin is to be stopped”

In 1971, Henry Fonda played the Vietnam War in a TV ad. Last week a Russian actor took the role. Nikita Kukushkin, in exile since condemning the invasion of Ukraine, faces the camera: I am war. Help me kill. Don't protest. Don't follow the news. Have a latte on Patriarch's Ponds.

A fuel supplier says $4M in gas vanished from its reserves, unpaid. Some allegedly ended up at "Freedom Fuel" stations Trump pitched as cheap gas amid his Iran conflict spiking oil prices. Sound familiar? I fought against Trump's lies when he turned them against our democracy. (Link in reply)

Applebaum explains the reasons of the war on Ukraine: "Putin wanted to rebuild the Soviet Empire, but he was also seeking to prevent the democratization of Russia, following a revolutionary change in the nature of the Ukrainian government. This is the revolution Putin is most afraid of at home."

remember when candidates campaigned for votes based on their policies. Now, pundits use words like “disunity,” “division,” “chaos,” and a “fight for the future of the Democratic Party” to describe a process that is more commonly known as “a primary.” open.substack.com/pub/roberthu...

As I've said many times, Republicans want to frame the election about a choice between parties' policies while Democrats' best election strategy is to make the election a referendum on Trump. Reporters and pundits focused on the few DSA candidates are providing in-kind contributions to Republicans
