We must now start calling this what it is: Trump’s Invasion. It started with federal agents, it will soon include deploying federalized members of the Illinois National Guard against our wishes, and it will now involve sending in another state’s military troops.

It's already time for a new SCOTUS term. Or, the summer that wasn't. A look back, a look ahead. And, for paid subscribers: Closing my tabs.

Will Chief Justice John Roberts and the Republican appointees end the notion of co-equal branches by raising the executive above all else in backing Trump’s unending desire for more power and fewer limits?

That is the question of this term, and Law Dork will be covering all of it.

The issue before is now is very simple and clear. There is a large and growing movement of leftwing terrorism in this country. It is well organized and funded. And it is shielded by far-left Democrat judges, prosecutors and attorneys general.
The only remedy is to use legitimate state power to dismantle terrorism and terror networks.

It's bad enough if President Trump is demanding authoritarian powers in violation of the Constitution ...

But if his unelected aides are manipulating him to get their own authoritarian policies in place, that's sort of a bigger deal.

The richest man on earth and the White House are calling for suspension of our Constitution and an authoritarian seizure of our co-equal Judiciary branch by our Executive branch.

Americans, Conservative and Republican, reject dictatorship. We know the poison it brings and we do not want it.

Trump: Why is FoxNews and Peter Doocy putting on Democrat Senator Mark Kelly to talk about, totally unabated or challenged, Healthcare? The FAKE SPIN is so bad for Republicans that it is hard to believe that we WIN. It will be very unfair, in the future, when they don't have "TRUMP" to fight for them. Therefore, we should fix it, NOW!
I'm watching this Interview. It just doesn't end.
Fox should either get on board, or get off board, NOW, but at this point, it just doesn't make any difference to me. They suck up the Ratings because of us, and then spin them in the Democrats' direction. They refuse to put up Polls that correctly show me at 65% in Popularity, a Republican RECORD, but if I have a fake bad
"Poll," many of which are done by Fox (One of the worst "Pollsters" out there is the FoxNews Poll), they put them up immediately, and with gusto.
Republicans are so tired of this fight with Fox always trying to be so "politically correct!" Thank you for your attention to this matter.

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.
