It's so bad that we've reached a point where members of Congress casually discuss stripping citizenship from and deporting people because they don't like their views.

Installed in the middle of the night.

No ceremony. No recognition.

5 years late.

The Republican majority continues to disgrace the brave law enforcement officers who put their lives on the line to defend our democracy on January 6, 2021.

Zero in on Stephen Miller as a supervillain Democrats should make Trump’s unlikable adviser the face of the GOP

Stephen Miller is a fascist promoting a dictatorship. He's an offputting creep, too – the GOP's Dr. Evil. Republican Sen. Thom Tillis says he's a β€œbig problem” for Trump. But that's true only if Democrats take advantage and tie Miller to Republicans in the midterms.

The footage coming from Glasgow city centre tonight is very upsetting. I was there only a couple of weeks ago and still consider myself a Glaswegian born and bred. That corner of Central Station is absolutely iconic. Thankfully no one appears to be hurt but small businesses and livelihoods are lost.

A dry Los Angeles day, a pair of teenagers are about to hug each other, the girl is in running clothes, it’s the start of a race.
