Past crimes must be normalized and those who held criminals accountable must be demonized: the old authoritarian story.
GOP Rep. Moore on Watergate: "Richard Nixon was absolutely couped out of office and was framed. All of this was fake."
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Nixon was not couped, and Watergate was not fake. White House tapes released after a unanimous Supreme Court ruling proved he ordered the cover-up. Facing bipartisan impeachment, Nixon resigned voluntarily, and dozens of officials were convicted.

We already heard Mike Johnson admit they're waiting until after the midterms to cut Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security. And new reporting revealed Trump wants to further restrict reproductive care now too.
They know this isn't what the American people want, so they're hiding it until you can't vote them out.
The only thing standing between this administration and more reckless cuts is a BLUE Senate. Let's make it happen.

After the latest jobs report, Black unemployment has jumped up a whole point in one month from 6.0% to 7.0% … Black women’s unemployment rose from 5.6% last month to 6.8% this month 😮😮😮 Black men increased to 6.0%.
What’s ironic is the demographic which people claimed would be most impacted by getting rid of DEI (WW) have a 2.9% unemployment rate, which is the lowest in the country alongside Asians.

A new VA report has a shocking revelation: more than half of all VA medical centers are now reporting severe staffing shortages. 97% of facilities can't fully staff their doctors, and 58% can't hire enough psychologists.
This didn't happen in a vacuum. The Trump administration has cut roughly 30,000 VA jobs. Now, Veterans are paying the price. @RepVindman

BREAKING: Twelve countries issued a joint statement announcing national bans on trade in goods from illegal Israeli settlements:
🇫🇷 France
🇬🇧 United Kingdom
🇨🇦 Canada
🇩🇰 Denmark
🇪🇸 Spain
🇫🇮 Finland
🇮🇪 Ireland
🇮🇸 Iceland
🇳🇴 Norway
🇵🇱 Poland
🇵🇹 Portugal
🇸🇪 Sweden
Macron, UK PM Burnham, and Canadian PM Carney agreed the situation is deteriorating with "unprecedented" settler violence and settlement expansion, specifically calling the E1 project "inadmissible."
They salute measures already taken by Ireland, Spain, Netherlands, Norway, and Belgium.
The statement demands Israel immediately stop settlement expansion, hold violent settlers accountable, and investigate allegations against Israeli forces.
They "firmly oppose any action resulting in the annexation of Palestinian lands or forced displacement."
