Kash Patel is taking credit for Biden-era FBI work and an operation led by Ghana. Ghana called him out, and his $17 billion seizure claim is bogus. The FBI director is supposed to investigate fraud, not perform it in clown makeup.

This warning from David Letterman to the media from just a year ago feels sadly too relevant today. He is right: You can't appease a tyrant.

The future of the Democratic Party must be rooted in investing in the American people — not Wall St., corporations, and consultants. Otherwise, Trumpism will continue to use cynicism, racism, and distrust to divide America.

My Latest: Contrary to many doomsayers, it is not too late to protect the midterm elections. There are steps Democrats can take now — at both the state and federal levels — to safeguard our elections. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/its-...

democracydocket.comIt’s not too late for states and Congress to stop Trump from subverting the midtermsWith only nine months before the midterm elections, Trump is plotting to prevent Democrats from taking control of Congress.

It’s the responsibility of government to protect its citizens. This Trump fascist regime is a danger to all of us. They want this violence. They want escalation. These murderous ICE thugs and their bosses must be held accountable.

The deadly shooting in Minneapolis today was a straight-up execution of a protester by Trump's federal brownshirts. The thugs wrestled him to the ground. They pistol-whipped him, then shot him multiple times. They murdered him.

Some perspective: The S&P opened down -1.3% on Trump's Greenland saber-rattling. That's $750 billion of wealth destroyed -- roughly equal to estimates of the value of Greenland. And so ~in dollar terms~ his shenanigans have already cost the US one Greenland, and we've got nothing to show for it.

Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists. Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election. Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot. It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.

Giving a bully your lunch money is only a temporary downpayment for future bullying. We ALL need to step up for the first amendment. By-the-way, for the record, this ex-Disney employee finds Jimmy Kimmel very talented and funny. mh

The Department of Justice is pretending it needed to talk to notorious liar Ghislaine Maxwell to know the truth about Jeffrey Epstein, when it is concealing thousands of documents about him that don’t lie. It’s a sick farce.

📌It's absolutely incredible that our media is STILL giving a guy who has done nothing but lie his entire miserable life any benefit of the doubt, or bare minimum, point out in their shoddy reporting that he has done nothing but lie his entire miserable life. This isn't journalism, it's sponsorship.

🚨🚨The White House is pissed off about this ad so you know what to do, share it everywhere! ICE is disappearing people just because of the color of their skin! No Warrant! No Due Process! This is not who we are as Americans! #MAGAKidnappers want an all white America, fuck that‼️

And there you have it. ICE didn't target migrant workers in Kristi Noem's farms or Sarah Huckabee Sanders' meatpacking plants because they wanted to create a riot in LA as a pretext to declaring martial law. They don't care about undocumented migrants, they only care about controlling US citizens.

Pentagon announces that it has formally accepted the "palace in the sky" jet from Qatar. Plain and simple violation of the Emoluments Clause without congressional approval. Don't think this is over.

Be more like Marc Elias. He exemplifies what it means to be a “fighter.” It’s that attitude of acknowledging the fear, flipping the source of it bird, and then walking toward it, 100% invested in victory. There are only a handful of people in politics right now that inspire me. Marc is #1

Just keep in mind: The day will come when America is no longer held hostage by a sociopath, a convicted felon, an arsonist and a vengeful, narcissistic sadist who revels in the pain and suffering of others and builds his fortune on the ruins of public liberty. May it come soon.

News: AOC had her strongest ever quarter, raising over $9.5m from 266k individual donors for an average of just $21. AOC doesn’t take a dollar from lobbyists or corporate PACS. Our top donor professions are teachers and nurses. 64% were first time contributors.

I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff
