OSSOFF: Trump has cemented his legacy in American history as a failure and a disgrace. J.D. Vance will go down as a footnote in that disgrace.

Cooper: I've seen governments and dictators rise and fall, people and places torn apart by lies and hate and war. And I've seen people do things and heard them say things that I could never have imagined. I've seen what we humans are capable of when everything else is stripped away. Yes, great acts of barbarism and brutality. But we are also capable of remarkable acts of heroism and kindness. It's a choice, and the choice is up to us Let's hope 50 years from now, someone standing here or somewhere on the eve of the 300th anniversary of this republic will look back and say of us: they didn’t know if they would make it through but they did.

Thank God these visitors are seeing the real American… beyond the image Trump projects.

The cost of your flight went up because you searched for it twice. Your rideshare costs more because your phone battery is dying. This is surveillance pricing – corporations using your own data and behaviors against you. In the US Senate, I’ve got a plan to ban it.

You can remove a flag, as at Stonewall; you can try to ignore history, as in Philadelphia; you can even try to humiliate people, as with racist tweets; but you can't erase people's innate human dignity. It can withstand anything. It is inalienable. nytimes.com/2026/02/10/us/pr…

If Jeff Bezos had any strength of character he would pay someone to take the newspaper he's destroyed off his hands and contribute money to a trust to restore it.

After paying $40M for the Melania movie, Bezos is firing hundreds of Washington Post reporters who tell us actual facts. All while turning the editorial board into a billionaire-defense operation. Too often, the billionaires who control our biggest media outlets are selling out our country.

More and more Americans are voicing their outrage at the tactics being deployed by federal agents in Minnesota. But it’s important to understand the broader implications of what this administration is doing, and the threat it poses to the basic freedoms of every American.

We’ve come to a horrible place: - Fed “Agents” Can Murder You for Holding a Cell Phone - Fed Officials Can 100% Lie About it + Smear Innocent Victim - Fed Govt Now Unable to Hold Fair & Honest Investigation + Blocks State Action - This is a National Crisis. 🇺🇸 Take a Stand.

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump. Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

The Nobel committee reminding Americans what an actual prize winner sounds like:
"I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war." Watch Martin Luther King Jr.'s Nobel Peace Prize speech, where he accepted the award on behalf of the American civil rights movement: bit.ly/3bJCQuc #MLKDay

Five years ago, our great American democracy was put to the test, and Donald Trump failed it. The danger he poses was clear then, and it remains clear now. We must never forget that.

One of the most heartbreaking things I read so far this year is the statement from the children of Mark and Melissa Hortman begging the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES to stop spreading lies about the brutal murder of their parents.

Running Venezuela and the Pentagon is apparently going so well that @PeteHegseth still has time for trolling. @SenMarkKelly is many things Hegseth never will be: a decorated Navy combat pilot; a courageous astronaut and a serious and stable human being.
Six weeks ago, Senator Mark Kelly — and five other members of Congress — released a reckless and seditious video that was clearly intended to undermine good order and military discipline. As a retired Navy Captain who is still receiving a military pension, Captain Kelly knows he is still accountable to military justice. And the Department of War — and the American people — expect justice. Therefore, in response to Senator Mark Kelly’s seditious statements — and his pattern of reckless misconduct — the Department of War is taking administrative action against Captain Mark E. Kelly, USN (Ret). The department has initiated retirement grade determination proceedings under 10 U.S.C. § 1370(f), with reduction in his retired grade resulting in a corresponding reduction in retired pay. To ensure this action, the Secretary of War has also issued a formal Letter of Censure, which outlines the totality of Captain (for now) Kelly’s reckless misconduct. This Censure is a necessary process step, and will be placed in Captain Kelly’s official and permanent military personnel file. Captain Kelly has been provided notice of the basis for this action and has thirty days to submit a response. The retirement grade determination process directed by Secretary Hegseth will be completed within forty five days. Captain Kelly’s status as a sitting United States Senator does not exempt him from accountability, and further violations could result in further action. These actions are based on Captain Kelly's public statements from June through December 2025 in which he characterized lawful military operations as illegal and counseled members of the Armed Forces to refuse lawful orders. This conduct was seditious in nature and violated Articles 133 and 134 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice, to which Captain Kelly remains subject as a retired officer receiving pay.

“Anyone who helps me try to steal an election gets a pardon” is perhaps the most corrupt thing to happen in American history. That “conservatives” have simply accepted this as the price of admission is the greatest moral and intellectual humiliation.
BREAKING: President Trump has pardoned Rudy Giuliani, John Eastman, Mark Meadows, Christina Bobb, Boris Epshteyn and dozens of false GOP electors and other key figures involved in his effort to overturn the 2020 election results, per pardon attorney Ed Martin >>>
