Hat tip to MSNOW and Rachel Maddow for highlighting the alternative SOTU events which are competing for their viewership. It's nice to see a media platform support democracy rather than being entirely mercenary. Well done. #RachelMaddow #MSNOW #uspol

#japaneseamericans (including #GeorgeTakai) were in camps during #WW2 because of bigotry, fear, hatred, but the ⭕ facts behind the decision to lock them up, was covered up

The US govt and Office of Naval Intelligence knew damn well the 120,000 in the US were pro USA. And the Jpn Imperial Military did NOT trust them. This evidence was put in the Burn Bag. But in 1982, 1 document was discovered😀. Listen to #BurnOrder

Sen #MarkKelly has responded to the #Pentagon / #Hegseth / #Trump threat.

When I was 22 years old, I commissioned as an Ensign in the United States Navy and swore an oath to the Constitution. I upheld that oath through flight school, multiple deployments on the USS Midway, 39 combat missions in Operation Desert Storm, test pilot school, four space shuttle flights at NASA, and every day since I retired - which I did after my wife Gabby was shot in the head while serving her constituents. In combat, I had a missile blow up next to my jet and flew through anti-aircraft fire to drop bombs on enemy targets. At NASA, I launched on a rocket, commanded the space shuttle, and was part of the recovery mission that brought home the bodies of my astronaut classmates who died on Columbia. I did all of this in service to this country that I love and has given me so much. Secretary Hegseth's tweet is the first I heard of this. I also saw the President's posts saying l should be arrested, hanged, and put to death. If this is meant to intimidate me and other members of Congress from doing our jobs and holding this administration accountable, it won't work. I've given too much to this country to be silenced by bullies who care more about their own power than protecting the Constitution.

Senator #MarkKelly, in an interview with #RachelMaddow, emphasized his view that "it's almost comical" that #Trump & #PeteHegseth are calling it a violation of the Uniform Code of Military Justice that he cited part of the Uniform Code of Military Justice in a recent video. Kelly explained his participation in the video in the context of protecting members of the military from a president who "doesn't seem to care about the Constitution, the rule of law."
