I had high hopes that somehow, we'd survive as a Democracy... Is there NO legal way to stop this guy??? I humbly beseech the Universe to PLEASE do what America seems unable to accomplish: STOP our descent into a remake of 1930s Germany & dictatorship!
This is just astonishingly great reporting.
All of the crises the White House has claimed over the last 14 months were planned in advance. All of them.
And however much contempt you have for media outlets who reverently relayed Trump's claim to have no relation to Project 2025, it isn't enough.
Newsweek: As the U.S.–Israeli bombardment of Iran continues with no end in sight, the economic shockwaves are already hitting American farmers, with some struggling to buy fertilizer and gasoline prices rising.

Are federal officers really being assaulted? Or is the government lying to us about the numbers?
You guessed it. They are lying.
Call Congress at 202-224-3121 today and demand accountability.

How fitting.
This week the Senate is going to vote on Joshua Rudd to be Director of the NSA. He's a dangerous nominee to lead an agency with a history of abusing domestic surveillance capabilities. Here's why:
Can I just say: As weary as you may feel, do not turn away from the degradation and desecrations, the violations and the violence. This is what the lawless Trump regime hopes--that our fatigue will make it easier for them to consolidate their power.
BREAKING: Former military lawyers say use of JAG lawyers in Minnesota violates the Posse Comitatus Act.
Although recent litigation has focused on troop deployments to American cities, a new challenge in Minnesota looks at DOJ's use of JAG lawyers in non-military cases.
New, at Law Dork:
Reporter: You just suggested that Iran somehow got its hands on a Tomahawk and bombed its own elementary school on the first day of the war. Why are you the only person saying this?
Trump: Because I just don’t know enough about it.

Trump bragged Putin was “impressed” by his moves in Iran. Hours later the Kremlin embarrassed him. Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Trump didn’t even ask about a ceasefire in Ukraine during their call.

Elizabeth Warren: "I am a hard no on a supplemental. This is not a war the American people want us to engage in. This is not a war that makes us safer ... No. No more money. The only thing Congress has the power to do is to stop actions like this through the power of the purse."
Oh, look, another NY-12 internal poll (conducted before ours) has us in second place ....

Greens Senator Nick McKim lashes out, Calls Trump a "Fascist War Criminal" and saying Anthony Albanese should be embarrassed for tying Australia 'to the hip' with the US by entering the War with Iran.
MERKLEY: So when the VP said 'ICE agents have absolute immunity' in violating people's civil rights, he was effectively correct?
BIER: Effectively, yes. Right now as the law stands.
Bier: "Over the last 30 years, we looked at all the government budgets -- federal, state, and local combined. Immigrants reduce deficits by $14.5 trillion."
Mamdani: "Extremism and hatred of any kind will not be tolerated in our city. What we want to deliver to New Yorkers is a city that is safe."
This is how our government has been corrupted:
1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat
We must get big money out of politics. It’s the root of all evil in Washington.
"Do you want to want for the party that wants to return to transgender mutilation surgery for children? These are the choices" -- with the economy reeling, Mike Johnson is leaning hard back into culture war issues
A surviving senior Iranian leader issued a chilling threat against Donald Trump in response to his own warning of "Death, Fire and Fury."
Jared Kushner helped cover up the murder of Jamal Khashoggi.
During Covid he seized PPE to stockpile & took millions in PPP loans.
Then he got $2B from the Saudis.
I'm not suggesting Jared's corrupt as fuck, I'm saying it outright!

WATCH: Spineless Speaker Johnson sanewashes Ogles’ unhinged racism 👇🏽
He talks about equality as he defends Pinocchiogles literally saying an entire religion should be banned. Shameless, unserious nonsense.

EISEN: How do you see this war ending?
WITKOFF: I don't know
The inept Trump administration is on a spending spree with our tax dollars.
Mr Trump is blowing thru $3B a day for an unpopular WAR and Hegseth spent $93B in 2025 on furniture, steaks, and fruit alone.
And they want more‼️
trump just told the world that Iran somehow fired U.S. Tomahawk missiles at a girls’ school.
It’s either staggering incompetence or a blatant lie about a potential war crime.

If incompetence were a sport, this cabinet would be undefeated.
Last week, Minnesota’s top federal prosecutor appeared before two federal district court judges and asked them to not hold the Trump administration in contempt for violating court orders. The judges, Biden appointee Jeffrey Bryan and Clinton appointee John Tunheim, had both directed the government…
