There were multiple votes last night to make the $1.8 billion cop beater fund illegal and Republicans blocked every single one, paving the way for Trump to resuscitate his slush fund.
Increasingly our culture and economy have become void of virtue. Profit obsession robs work of dignity. Consumerism replaces citizenship. Corruption becomes normal. That’s why I wrote Crisis of the Common Good - to explain that the solution is bigger than just beating Trump.
This is true and I’m glad he said it. But our economy has become valueless. It teaches us that a “good” company is one that abuses its workers and makes poisonous products - as long as it makes a huge profit. It’s hard to build a moral nation without a moral capitalism.
I'm demanding information from ICE on what happened in Danbury today. Contrary to their statement, ICE is not targeting criminals - they are targeting peaceful, law abiding immigrants. In Connecticut and everywhere else. They are a lawless agency.
I understand why towns put police in schools, but there is a really dark side to this when it’s done wrong. This expose about Texas is damning. Kids being slammed against walls for vaping. A disabled student hogtied.

The heart of our constitutional crisis in one exchange between me and Sec. Mullin. When asked a simple question - if he will obey court orders - he says he will not because some court orders are "politicized".

That’s the actual truth.
This war has been humiliating for Trump and American power generally. And when Trump announces he is going to call Netanyahu and tell him not to retaliate, and within hours Netanyahu retaliates, the humiliation just compounds.
The biggest story in America is a president who has completely lost touch with reality. Who thinks the FBI let all the January 6 rioters into the Capitol, that he really won the 2020 election, that the Iran War is going well. Who, when occasionally confronted w reality, panics.

WOW - Trump crashes out & cuts his interview w/ Welker short as she presses him on his lack of evidence for claiming elections are rigged
"You're either crooked or you're stupid. I've had enough. Thank you darling," he tells her"
"I traveled all the way to Wisconsin for this interview," she pleads
