The head of the DOD is more worried about how he looks in photos than about his war.

It’s a given.

The SAVE Act is a major attack on voting rights. It is not a genuine voter ID reform, but rather an attempt to suppress turnout in future elections.

NBC’s Richard Engel: “The White House meme campaign is outraging many former US military commanders… they say only someone who has never really seen combat would think it’s a joke and put out material like this.”

I understand why Putin wants to destroy America, and I can guess why Trump is helping him do it. But I'll never figure out why Congress is letting him get away with it.

They spent billions on regime change in Venezuela and left the Maduro's head of torture in charge.

They are now spending billions on regime change in Iran, knowing the most likely outcome will be harder line leadership.

We do not have serious people running our country.

You have clearly not read the War Powers Act, Mike. Everything you've written is totally wrong.

The War Powers Act SPECIFICALLY PROHIBITS military action unless: a/ there is a prior congressional authorization; or b/ it's a response to an attack against the U.S.

They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).

Whether you love or hate Trump, this wasn’t the promise. He ran as the guy who wouldn’t start new wars. Now we’re in one. The war comes with the occupation.

Donald Trump started a war and quickly blamed Iran for his defeat in 2020. He is plotting to steal the 2026 election. And his buddy David Ellison just won control of CNN.

Susan Rice is right. Now Netflix must choose. The institutions and individuals who betrayed democratic principles will bear that mark of shame well into the future.

Susan Rice saw this moment coming. She described it plainly, and she was right.

Now, Netflix must decide which side of history it wants to be on.

The right choice is obvious. The only question is whether Netflix has the courage to make it. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/susa...

According to the New Yorker, Donald Trump and his family profited off the presidency by an estimated $4 billion in 2025 — mostly through shady crypto deals.

That amounts to $456,621 per hour.

But how are you doing?

The message from the DOJ is unmistakable: Justice is no longer the objective.

Retribution is.

$4 BILLION — So corrupt.

There is no debating this. Anyone who says otherwise is telling on themselves.

All I see on my Twitter timeline are reporters parsing every quote from AOC in Germany, trying to mock them for incoherence or inaccuracy, while a demented old man who can’t string sentences together or stay awake sits in the Oval, while the legacy media happily sanewashes his quotes.

The New York Times reports that the Department of Homeland Security has sent Google, Meta, and other media corporations subpoenas for the names on accounts that criticize ICE enforcement. The department wants to identify Americans who oppose what it’s doing. I’ll save them time.
