OPINION:

Lawrence: Trump looking away from a man in need should be the portrait for his second term

@ Lawrence O’Donnell details how Trump demonstrated his ability to “completely ignore a person in need.”

How can that be legal!?

When he loses, he claimed it was rigged.

America’s judges are creating a record Trump can’t erase Federal judges across the country are issuing extraordinary warnings as Donald Trump tests the limits of presidential power and pushes the nation toward authoritarianism. In a rare move, Judge Susan Graber urged Americans to “retain faith in our judicial system for just a little longer,” as lower courts work to restrain Trump’s overreach. These judges aren’t just issuing rulings— they’re preserving the factual record at the very moment Trump is trying to erase history, collective memory, and truth itself.

Breaking tradition, judges are now speaking to the public through their rulings to warn of democratic backsliding. As Trump bulldozes history in real time, judges across America are putting the facts into the permanent record– where he can’t touch them. #Velshi

Food Stamp Cuts Expose Trump’s Strategy to Use Shutdown to Advance Agenda The president has stretched the limits of his powers to help those at the heart of his agenda, not the many in greatest need.

News Analysis: President Trump has used the federal shutdown to help those at the center of his agenda, not for the millions of Americans relying on food stamps.

Analysis: How much could the federal government shutdown cost the economy? In past shutdowns, estimates of lost economic activity have reached into the billions of dollars. In the context of a $30 trillion economy, that's not a lot. But on the margins, economists say it can have an effect.

The federal shutdown — one month long and counting — has an obvious economic impact for government workers who aren’t receiving paychecks and food aid recipients who didn’t get their benefits Nov. 1. But what about the broader economy? (via @politifact.bsky.social) https://to.pbs.org/4qTLURA

Kash fired the guy he thinks outed him for taking another private jet flight to see his girlfriend sing.

This is disgraceful, and a reminder that the republican party lacks any moral authority whatsoever. #restoresnap #republicanshutdown

Republicans are in control of all three branches of government. It means they are responsible for governing. They have to talk with Democrats to create a compromise. Failing 13 times to pass the same uncompromised piece of legislation may feel good to MAGA supporters, but it's not governing.

How a Former Trump Golf Club Worker Was Mistakenly Deported to Mexico

NEW: How ICE mistakenly deported Alejandro Juarez to Mexico.

Alejandro was detained in NYC, put on the wrong ICE plane and sent to Mexico.

He never saw a judge, no deportation order - a likely violation of law.

Trump's approval ratings are tanking. He's flailing on the economy. He hasn't done squat to help working people. The Epstein scandal haunts him.

Remember that every authoritarian action Trump is taking must be understood against the backdrop of his declining popularity.

The Senate passed a resolution aimed at ending President Donald Trump's tariffs on Canada, with four Republicans joining Democrats to rebuke the administration's trade policies a day after they voted to terminate tariffs on Brazil. https://cnn.it/3WuHEKo
