DOJ confirmed that 47,635 Epstein files have been removed.

That’s ANOTHER 47,635 reasons why we need ACCOUNTABILITY!

I Could Be Wrong.

The Constitution splits the war powers for a reason. The president commands the military. The Congress decides when the nation goes to war. Read: cbwrong.blogspot.com/2026/03/most...

AOC: They wanted to issue this statement as though we’re just going after these 30-year-old men on Medicaid playing video games in their basement, right? This was the narrative that we heard.

First of all, I think everyone should have healthcare in America, regardless of who you are

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.

Make no mistake: the AI boom, and data center construction it requires, is nothing more than a massive giveaway to Big Tech oligarchs at the expense of our environment and our states’ public resources.

Our leaders should put communities before Big Tech's bottom lines.

Every ICE officer who has broken the law should be arrested, tried, and imprisoned for their crimes.

Kristi Noem Ran DHS Into the Ground. That’s Not Why She Got Fired. Kristi Noem just found Trump’s red line, becoming the first cabinet member to be fired in his second term. But it wasn’t for the reasons you’d think.

Sunday thought: We will prevail Finding courage in a dark time

It’s been a hard week. If you’re feeling angry, you’re not alone. I see it in your comments. I’m struck by how you are fighting back against this tyranny, nonetheless.

You are giving me hope.

A wise administration wouldn’t start another war in the Middle East.

A competent administration wouldn’t bomb an elementary school full of children on day 1 of the war they started.

They are neither.

I’m just curious if any of the disgusting juvenile delinquents making the ridiculous war glorification videos for the White House ever served in combat. Or even served in the military at all.

Chris Murphy: "I think it's likely the United States that carried out this attack on this school. I think it's unforgivable under any circumstances, but the fact this was one of our first targeting decisions speaks to the incompetence of our leadership at the Dept of Defense."

Donald Trump ripped for behavior at dignified transfer: ‘Take your (expletive) hat off’ It will be interesting to see if Trump responds to the criticism.

He is too old, corrupt, selfish, dumb and nasty for this job.
