Thomas Paine said it in 1776 and it is still true: in America, the law is king.
That is not a Democratic value or a Republican value. It is the founding premise of this country.

Article I of the Constitution is unambiguous: no titles of nobility.
No kings. No lords. No rulers above the law.
Reposted byMike Levin
Abraham Lincoln saw this coming. A people who grow accustomed to trampling the rights of those around them lose the genius of their own independence. They become, in his words, “the fit subjects of the first cunning tyrant who rises.”
We are living that warning.
Tomorrow we answer. #WeSayNoKings
We are surrendering global scientific leadership voluntarily, deliberately, and one resignation letter at a time.
Meanwhile, China and Europe are recruiting our scientists, funding their labs, and making long-term bets on the industries of the future while we gut the research infrastructure that took generations to build.
NASA’s own administrator just said studying climate change isn’t part of NASA’s mission.
The agency that first warned Congress about global warming in 1988 now treats that work as a distraction.
We lost them because this administration defunded their work, shuttered their offices, and made clear that finding out the truth is no longer a government priority.
An estimated 95,000 scientists and researchers have left federal agencies since Trump returned to the White House.
These are the people tracking hurricanes, studying pediatric cancer, and modeling the climate tipping points that determine whether we can still prevent catastrophe.
This is absolutely infuriating and completely idiotic.

In 1776, our Founders rejected the rule of kings and built something the world had never seen: a Republic governed by the many, not the one. We have sustained it for 250 years. That is the result of ordinary people refusing to give it up.
Today, be one of those people. Show up. #NoKings

This is your daily reminder that Trump and Republicans are spending billions of your tax dollars on an unauthorized war in Iran and Stephen Miller’s ICE agenda while gutting Medicaid, slashing SNAP, and driving up your health care costs.

It's pathetic. What history will remember is what he destroyed to feel significant and the people who let him.
Every American who pulls a dollar from their wallet will soon see Donald Trump’s name on it.
He’s the first sitting president in history to put his signature on U.S. currency.
A desperate, insecure man branding everything in sight because he knows history won’t remember him kindly on its own.
DOGE fired its State Department oil and gas experts in July.
Six months later, Trump bombed Iran, the Strait of Hormuz closed, and gas prices spiked nearly a dollar a gallon.
You can’t make this stuff up.
Our service members will do anything we ask of them. They are the best of the best. The least we owe them is a honest answer to the same question General Petraeus asked about Iraq in 2003: tell me how this ends.

Meanwhile our servicemembers are being hunted by Iranian forces after being displaced from bombed-out bases, and their families deserve to know why they’re there and when they’re coming home.
Donald Trump launched an unauthorized war, and four weeks in, his stated goals shift almost daily. He and Hegseth have shared no plan, no strategy, and no end game.
Congress has received no clear answers.
