Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say βSend meβ wherever we have a chance to make an impact.
How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.

And just like that weβre back to βDepartment of Defenseβ
Massie on Newsmax: "We're not getting the answers we need from Pam Bondi. I just spent 3 hours at the DOJ this week looking at the unredacted files. And I'm finding evidence of files they haven't released yet." (Note that the Newsmax anchor agrees with him!)
I am frankly more concerned about the apathy of the American public and even more importantly the lack of leadership in the Democratic Party.
This is not a dress rehearsal. Every single American must speak out against this Facist administration.

Seems less than ideal.
Like clockwork.
Of course, Kristi Noem deserved to be fired. But rather than spend energy celebrating this Trump setback, let's recognize that the disaster of todayβs DHS runs much deeper than the (former) Secretary's incompetence - and keep stepping up the political pressure.
Kristi Noem has been fired. Good riddance.
But letβs be clear: one personnel change does not fix a broken system.
Until this out-of-control agency is held accountable, I will not vote to give it another dollar.
Huge slap in the face to democracy. Democratic Colorado governor, @colorado.gov, just publicly signaled clemency to Tina peters, convicted of election interference. If election crimes have no consequences, why would the next denier stop?

NEW: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says the United States has asked Ukraine for help intercepting Iranian-made Shahed drones, citing Ukraineβs battlefield expertise. Zelenskyy said any assistance will come only if it does not weaken Ukraineβs own defenses.
BREAKING: New York City reports the lowest levels of shootings, shooting victims, and murders ever recorded for the first two months of a year. Major crime is down nearly 8% citywide, burglary hit a record low, and retail theft dropped 25%
47 years is the *opposite* of imminent (which means "something that will happen soon"). These people are so stupid.

Kelly: "You could pick a random group of people off the street tonight here in DC and they could probably do a better job than our government is doing right now. They don't have a goal, there's no strategic plan. And what this is likely to lead to is, again, a long war with a lot of dead Americans."
We have learned - the hard way - how launching a reckless war of choice with no clear endgame can put Americans in greater danger.
The president should spend more time worrying about our constitution and the safety of Americans serving our nation, and less time thinking about a ballroom.
"I don't mean to short circuit this whole exercise here, but watching people who voted to confirm her suddenly get all chesty about 'I had no idea' β go fuck yourselves."
@jvl.bsky.social and @samsteindc.bsky.social discuss Kristi Noem's appearance before Congress.
What's shameful is: Speaker Johnson is not loyal to the constitution of the United States. He should be investigated for falsely swearing his oath of office

The official military operation of the Iran war.
NEW -- Remember in Trump's war video where he warned about the chaos that attacking Iran would unleash, the tanking stock market, the spiking gas prices, the tens of thousands of Americans stranded overseas...
Oh, he forgot to mention that part?

Our nation is again at war, not because we had to but because the president recklessly chose to.
Now we must recognize who pays the price: not the president and his wealthy allies, but service members and ordinary Americans.
Secretary Noem is either completely incompetent or violating our rights with impunity, she should be removed from office.
President Trump routinely lies to the American people. While he and his family profit in the billions off his Middle East partners, he cuts health care and student lunch programs and leads the US into a costly war with no congressional authorization.
I predict this man has a very bright future.
