Let's be clear: Trump is thinking of entering a war against Iran without Congressional authorization or legal basis because his birthday parade was a dud and he thinks the war will produce arousing pictures for him to look at on Fox News.
it's all great replacement conspiracy theories and election denialism. he's attacking cities and immigrants because he thinks that anyone who votes against him is unamerican and deserves to be deported.
Get ready.
Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today
For those of us who’ve spend the last 6 months discussing how the Trump would use deportations to create chaos is the Blue states and then use that chaos as an excuse to declare a national emergency and seize total power, things are right on schedule.
After #Springsteen criticized the administration, the president said he should “KEEP HIS MOUTH SHUT.”
Undeterred, Springsteen included his comments on a new release, which begins with his remarks that America “is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent and treasonous administration."
House GOP leadership has apparently decided to give Texas $12 billion dollars, in a transparent plan to reimburse Greg Abbott for Operation Lone Star, the Texas border wall, and the migrant buses, as a way of winning over holdouts on reconciliation.
This gets the story wrong on a fundamental level because it assumes DOGE was about what Musk claimed.
DOGE was about stealing data, getting Musk contracts, shutting down investigations and regulations of Musk’s companies, and terrorizing federal workers. On that front, it succeeded.
The FBI has *ARRESTED* a sitting judge in Milwaukee, over allegations it obstructed immigration enforcement.

My eldest daughter Claudia once asked me why there isn’t a provision that says that convicted felons can’t be president and this was *exactly* my answer

“I could march for democracy down the middle of Fifth Avenue and nobody would stop me” is more like it.
Trump’s Tariffs would be held illegal if the Constitution’s separation of powers were taken seriously. Hell, they’d be struck down by Trump’s Supreme Court if its Major Questions Doctrine and its commitments to original meaning and textualism were consistently applied to Article I and IEEPA. 🔥

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble.
For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity.
What will you do?
If you haven't figured it out, Trump is seeking an arctic partnership with Russia, in order for Russia to declare total control of the region and its resources, Canada, Greenland, and Nordic Europe (all in NATO) need to be taken out. Trump's invasion threats make more sense if you piece it together.
ICE stripped a German green card holder naked, drove him from Boston to Vermont to Rhode Island, put him in a cold shower, deprived him of medication, sleep and food until he collapsed.
No one knows why he was detained.
