Donald Trump's deployment of California's National Guard in Los Angeles was an unlawful and unconstitutional abuse of power. It was done over California’s objection — all in an effort to intimidate peaceful protestors advocating for immigrant rights.

Per a new report from House Democrats, Trump's DOJ is withholding evidence of his ties to Epstein and slow-walking the complete release of the Epstein files. It's time to end the cover-up and expose the truth. Remember this when you cast your ballot. www.ms.now/news/house-j...

The Democrats’ focus on affordability seems to be a winning strategy. But we mustn’t lose sight of the moral squalor at the core of the Trump regime and the necessity of ending it. My latest for The Guardian. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/oct/23/trump-moral-squalor

Gaslighting 101: The AG is literally calling us crazy for thinking Trump will use the levers of government power to overturn the results of an election, when he has a documented history of doing just that. That’s tyranny.

BASH: The worry is that we end up in a situation where President Trump tries to overturn the election and the result of that could be like what we saw after January 6-- BLANCHE: Stop it! You gotta stop it with that! That's crazy BASH: This is a president who has a history

OBAMA: "Trump is focused on enriching himself & his family/friends. A Venezuelan billionaire wanted a pardon, so he paid a Trump lawyers $50 million — and lo & behold! The pardon falls out of the sky... We’ve never seen a president straight-up grifting on your dime like this."

Muslims didn’t storm the Capitol on January 6, try to steal an election, or overthrow our government. White Christian nationalists, racist militia groups, and rabid Trump supporters did. We need to stop pretending the biggest terrorist threat to this country is coming from somewhere else.

Todd Blanche wants us to shove the Jan. 6 insurrection into a vault as ancient history alongside the Tilden-Hayes Compromise of 1877. But it was only 5 years ago that Trump tried to steal an election!

Blanche is not the people's attorney general. He's Trump's fascist enforcer.

BASH: What's the crime? AG TODD BLANCHE: What's the crime? Well it depends. There *could* be a crime. But the real wrong here is that Alaskans are gonna be confused. BASH: The Alaskan Supreme Court ruled 4 months ago on this matter

ICE said Antonio Moreida jumped onto the hood of their vehicle. Now a local police investigation concludes that an ICE agent struck him with his SUV. The routine lying by ICE is the result of the example set by leadership of the Department of Homeland Security.

Our nation is in grave danger. But across America I’m seeing stirrings of a giant backlash. People rising up and hitting the streets. People getting out the vote. Our fight — for democracy, the rule of law, social and economic justice, and decency — is gaining ground. I believe we will win.
