It may be time for the governors of blue states to hire the recently fired or retired military brass to come to speak to the their respective national guard troops to explain why it is illegal to accept an unlawful order from the commander-in-chief and is completely lawful to refuse to accept one.

Every Dem governor should offset the tariffs by lowering sales tax. It’s almost a guaranteed way to get republicans behind them.

It’s funny how Trump is not sending troops to red state cities. Further, let’s not pretend that crime is solely a urban thing.

It is a rare show of unity but ultimately undermines itself by being a mere condemnation rather than a declaration of intent to resist. We need strong leadership, not weak-kneed rhetoric right now. Nice to see my Gov on board but it's so half hearted it doesn't count as opposition.
