Senator Kelly’s remarks in the video are “a 100% accurate representation of what the law says." “No American citizen should have to deal with this type of preposterous investigation.” - Professor Eugene Fidell, leading military justice expert in Wall Street Journal www.wsj.com/politics/mar...

100% this. 100%. Take them ALL down.
"This could take down Democrats, too." I know. And I frankly wouldn't give even an itty bitty damn if it implicated every Democratic man in Congress, every Democratic hopeful for 2028 and every Democrat who has even thought about running for office. Down with the sex predators, wherever they are.

Truth. Many linger on Xitter because of real-time sports content. I miss that during March Madness and various playoffs.
Well-meaning folks on Bluesky who dismiss sportsball as some kind of distraction to What Matters Now are missing a key point in creating an alternative to X: Sports for better or worse dominates American culture. You ignore enormous swaths of potential allies when you dismiss sports.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

The Trump administration will do anything to rid this country of the slightest hint of anti-Semitism, unless anti-Semites have a million dollars available to bribe the president, of course.

This. And it’s why the next person cannot be Vance.
The next president has to do two things: 1) right the wrongs of Trump and go after those who broke the law and were corrupt. 2). Then spend time divesting power from the presidency and building real guardrails and passing laws like, “the president is not immune” etc. And get the money out

Rep. Julie Johnson to Noem: "Are you aware that ICE agent jackets are available on Etsy for $20? Anybody can throw a mask on and run around and terrorize people of color without any regard for the law because your agency does not have proper protocols to make sure your agents are clearly identified"
