The nonexistence of mass voter fraud is an empirically proven scientific fact. It is equivalent to knowing where the sun rises, or whether water has both adhesive & cohesive qualities or whether the Earth is spherical. Political journalists need to start acting based on that known empirical reality.

Good. Love to see it. May every airport in America become a nightmare of lines.

Maybe the TSA admin should call for the arrest and prosecution of the ICE agents who murdered Alex Pretti and Renee Good. That’d be a start.

US oil dependence is about empire, but it also necessitates alliances with authoritarian states the American people would not otherwise tolerate. The wind industry is a threat to the Saudis, it’s a threat to Israel, and it’s a threat to the military industrial complex.

NYT on Feb. 13, 2026:

The visit also demonstrated the relative foreign policy inexperience of Ms. Ocasio-Cortez, who has made a few overseas trips since taking office but does not sit on any House committees devoted primarily to world affairs. She struggled at times to formulate succinct answers at a nighttime panel session, during which she was asked probing and specific questions about how to respond to international crises.

Questioned about whether the United States should send troops to defend Taiwan if China invaded the island, she stalled for roughly 20 seconds before offering a substantive response.

“I think that, uh, this is such a, a — you know, I think that — this is a, um — this is of course, a, uh, a very longstanding, um, policy of the United States,” Ms. Ocasio-Cortez said, before saying that the country should try to avoid reaching that point with China in the first place.

On Monday, Mr. Trump claimed that “numerous countries have told me they’re on the way,” noting that President Emmanuel Macron of France would most likely help in the Strait of Hormuz and was an eight out of 10. “Not perfect, but it’s France,” he said.

Others are not demonstrating sufficient enthusiasm for his demands, he said.

Last month the NYT said AOC "struggled" to give an answer on Taiwan and quoted her with "uhs" and "ums" to make her look stupid

Yesterday talking about Hormuz Trump claimed he's heard from "numerous countries" and said "uh" four times. The NYT deleted the "uhs" and paraphrased him to look smarter:

"We started a war of aggression for no reason & commenced it by accidentally bombing an elementary school & killing over 100 kids."

That simple fact is so horrific that it's just kind of bouncing on the surface of our collective consciousness. We can't absorb its full implications & significance.

I am back in D.C. to hear from cruel Kristi Noem on why she is complicit in the chaos happening at DHS, vote on a War Powers Resolution to rein Donald Trump in, and vote against a DHS funding bill that does nothing to address the reckless actions we’re seeing from ICE.

The work continues.

First Venezuela, then Iran, and there's rumbling about Cuba. When will Democrats learn their lesson and stop talking about the Epstein files?

A lot of arguments Trump and his supporters use for the Iran War really depend on you not knowing he had an earlier term in office from 2017 through 2020.

funny though that swing voters were incandescently furious at Biden for inflation largely caused by a global pandemic, because they imagined him pressing the "make prices go up" button. then they elected Trump who is literally doing that. getting a little chuckle out of that

Again, this is not a problem that can be solved either with new laws or more court orders. There is only one solution, & everyone knows this, & it would be better if we could focus on the two dozen people in America who can actually make it happen:

Ilhan Omar: Five steps to take in response to Operation Metro Surge "Nothing about what we witnessed was normal," U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar writes. "Where do we go from here?"

Trump’s “Operation Metro Surge” was a militarized campaign of fear that treated immigrants as criminals and weaponized the federal government against U.S. citizens.

We need independent investigations, real accountability, and to abolish ICE.
