Fox News: Tim Walz: “We've got a feeble-minded, trigger-happy president who plunged us into a war where no threat was present, with no clear objectives and no exit plan. We need to call that what it is. That's fascism.”

Just got out of a roundtable at #OAH2026 on Gilded Age corruption and now it's time to see what's in the news and

Christian Nationalist Pete Hegseth has come up with a way to motivate Iranians to kill more American troops. Instead of framing the war as being against the Iranian regime, which many Iranians dislike and wouldn't fight for, he talks of the war being against their Islamic faith. He's smart that way.

Vote every single GOP trump sycophant out of office!
None of them should ever have a peaceful day. Ever.

Men, We Need to Talk About "Rape Academy" This isn’t about women. This is about us. And it’s long past time we had this conversation

This article is for men.

In just the past few weeks: a wife murdered. A community leader killed. Multiple women alleging assault from another congressman. A survivor died by suicide. "Rape Academy" has 140 million visits in two months.

The pattern is horrifying, and the solution starts with us.

Lawfulness. A general order or regulation is lawful unless it is contrary to the Constitution, the laws of the United States, or lawful superior orders or for some other reason is beyond the authority of the official issuing it.

A traitor to both his party and his country.

Clarence Thomas ruled in favor of Citizens United.

Harlan Crow's political contributions then went up 862%.

Then we later find out Thomas let Crow take him on lavish trips, buy his mom's house, and help fund his wife's conservative nonprofit.

But go on about how "progressivism" is a problem...

Once again for the folks in the back: IMMIGRANTS ARE NOT TAKING YOUR JOBS. Technology is taking your jobs. And your government is doing absolutely nothing to re-train the segment of our workforce whose jobs are becoming obsolete.

Far-right troll account followed by JD Vance on X unmasked “HowlingMutant,” who jokes about rape and the Holocaust, is Alexander Norden of New York City

NEW: We’ve identified the man who runs the far-right troll account on X “HowlingMutant,” whose jokes about rape and the Holocaust have earned him nearly 200,000 followers, which include Vice President JD Vance. His name is Alexander Norden, from Rockaway Park in New York City.

Hegseth's Pentagon prayer sounds like 'Pulp Fiction' line; here's why During a prayer at the Pentagon on Wednesday, Pete Hegseth appeared to paraphrase "Pulp Fiction" rather than the real Ezekiel 27:17 Bible verse.

Really getting tired of these faux Christians defaming my religion. Not only is Hegseth misquoting Bible passages to justify military aggression, he apparently has not read the New Testament at all.
