The Courts Must Stop Presuming Donald Trump is a Regular President Read more here.

The most dangerous legal doctrine right now is a "norm" the courts developed to presume good faith and regularity from presidents and their administrations.

For the sake of democracy, the courts must stop presuming donald Trump is a regular president. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/the-...

I have lived through unstable economic and political times before. Tariffs and isolationism are breeding grounds for fascism. We are at strong risk of repeating history.

You ever notice how when right-wing terrorists commit terrorist acts, the police go really quiet on the motives and you never hear about it again?

We need to hear more about what drove the rightwing terrorist who tried to burn Josh Shapiro and his family in their home to commit terrorist arson.

What we all just witnessed had all the earmarks of a criminal conspiracy to deprive Abrego-Garcia of his constitutional rights, as well as an impeachable offense. The fraud scheme was a phony agreement engineered by the US to have Bukele say he lacks power to return Abrego Garcia and he won't do it.

Bukele’s Offense Against the American People Here’s how I look at today’s White House spectacle. I don’t really...

Any Democratic politician who doesn't understand Nayib Bukele's grave offense against the sovereignty of the American people and constitutional order and say as much publicly should have no future in elected office. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/bukel...

For those of you keeping score:

When President Biden left office, the stock market had risen to a healthy 43,487.

Since trump launched his stupid trade war, the stock market has plummeted to 37,958, just 77 days later.

He is a fucking IDIOT.
Any questions?

My guess is Trump will figure out some facesaver for the tariffs. Where his people will be able to say he’s a genius despite not really doing anything

"The implication...is that not only noncitizens but also U.S. citizens could be taken off the streets, forced onto planes, and confined to foreign prisons with no opportunity for redress if judicial review is denied unlawfully before removal. History is no stranger to such lawless regimes..."

We fight to give hope β€” a reminder that there are still those within the government standing up for what’s right. Since Saturday, we’ve faced relentless attacks. We know there will be consequences for our actions, but we will not back down.
