If Obama or Biden had said this, it would be rightfully understood as them arrogating dictatorial authority to themselves, it would be the only thing anyone in the media or opposition would talk about for a year, and it would probably end their presidency. For Trump, it’s literally just Tuesday.

🚨BREAKING: Trump just announced at his cabinet meeting that they'll seek the death penalty for anyone killing someone in the Capitol building.

Families of the police officers who died at the Jan 6 insurrection and saw their murderers walking free would like to have a word.

So will Utah obey, or will it go the way of lawless legislatures like Ohio and Alabama when ordered to redraw maps? Tired of the GOP not obeying the law.

What’s Life Like in Washington, D.C., During Trump’s Takeover? Late-summer days and nights amid troops on the streets of the nation’s capital.

Trump’s federal takeover of D.C.’s local police is unprecedented. β€œThe last person who asserted the authority to use military personnel for routine law enforcement anywhere in the country for any reason was King George,” a legal scholar said.

Whenever I think about Trump supporters and wonder, "How could they be that stupid?" I remember this and recall, yes, easily, they *can* be that stupid.

Paxton tells Texas schools to follow Ten Commandments law despite court ruling Attorney General Ken Paxton's guidance comes days after U.S. District Judge FredΒ Biery sided with 16 families who sued their school districts to stop the law from going into effect.

My current favorite bit of right-wing Christian hypocrisy is Ken Paxton, a man whose wife is divorcing him for adultery, forcing Texas schools to unconstitutionally post "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery."

Will it? Who's gonna stop them, now? Congress? No. The courts? No. We're finished.

Judge orders Trump administration to explain why order to restore Voice of America wasn't followed A U.S. District Court judge ordered the Trump administration to explain why it is apparently not following his order to restore operations at the government-run Voice of America.

A federal judge warned Kari Lake, an outspoken Trump ally who oversaw the effective shutdown of Voice of America, that she could be held in contempt for failing to comply with his directive to resume broadcasts at the taxpayer-funded news outlet.

They'll just ignore it like they did before the election.

'We're going to continue': MAGA attorney general vows to defy 'Alligator Alcatraz' order A MAGA attorney general is openly defying a court order to close a federal immigration detention center in their state. Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier told a local news outlet that he plans t...

Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier has declared that he will not be following the court order to shut down the so-called "Alligator Alcatraz."

Apparently court orders are optional now if you're a member of the "Law and Order" party.

I’m convinced Trump could announce he’s bringing back human sacrifice to assure the harvest and the Times headline would deem it β€œunconventional plan for farmers.”

If Trump wants to throw the book at people who commit β€œviolent crime” while desecrating the American flag, why did he pardon people who on Jan. 6, 2021 violently assaulted our cops with American flags-on-poles, calling them heroes and rewarding their bloody flag desecration?
