Trump's election to the Oval Office should and will be viewed as the biggest con job in American history.

James and I have much in common. My mom didn’t go to college (my dad died when I was 12). But thanks to public schools and public school teachers, I got to attend and graduate from the University of Texas at Austin. I’m forever grateful to the Texas Public School System and public school teachers.

Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Jon Meacham says the founders arranged for elections to be state-run, not β€œnationalized,” as President Trump recently asserted.

β€œThe key insight of the American founding is that most of what we would want to do as human beings is wrong. Most of it's selfish.”

With Trump, every accusation is a confession.

Did Bessent make this comment because he knows that Trump has already stolen all of the Tariff money collected?

Why? Because Trump already stole the money and pocketed it?

Neal Katyal: "In America, the chief justice said only Congress can impose taxes on the American people, and that's what tariffs are. Tariffs are taxes."

The question is so poorly phrased that it compromises any validity the poll might have had, assuming it ever had any validity in the first place, which remains in serious doubt.

Another loss for the prosecutor who can't indict a ham sandwich! She'll be drinking another box of wine (or three) after this latest loss.
