The Trump Administration cited a "national security emergency" to increase tariffs on Canada when the governor of one province showed a video of former President Reagan making his signature free trade pitch.
A National Security Emergency.
That's how detached from reality Trump is.
Um, "Trump pardoned the guy who helped fund Hamas" probably sounds like shitposting, but so does describing so much of what this regime is doing.

Under Mike Johnson, the US House of Representatives has sunk to the level of the State Duma under Putin -- a pure rubber stamp that exists only to enrich and protect those who enter and to serve the interests of the dictator.
MAGA Mike has no morals and detests American freedom. He craves power.
Trump, who desperately wants a Nobel Peace Prize, is now gearing up for two invasions -- Venezuela and Nigeria -- at the same time he orders the extra-judicial killing of dozens of civilians on the high seas.

Donald Trump has released a new EO to "eradicate anti-Christian bias."
What is one of the examples of "anti-Christian bias" cited in his order? The recognition by Biden of Transgender Day of Visibility, which fell on the same day as Easter Sunday last year.

1. Show up. Go to the places Musk is taking over, bring cameras, demand to find out what's going on and where it breaks the law.
2. Refuse to allow standard business to continue unimpeded. Deny unanimous consent, delay votes, etc.
3. Be public about how illegal all of this is
4. Lay out a plan

In Restoring Accountability, President Trump used his authority under the Constitution and 5 U.S.C. Β§Β§ 3301 and 3302 to directly nullify these regulations. Section 4 of Restoring Accountability provides that, until OPM effectuates their formal rescission β5 CFR part 302, subpart F, 5 CFR 210.102(b)(3), and 5 CFR 210.102(b)(4) shall be held inoperative and without effect.β This presidential directive immediately superseded OPM regulations issued using delegated presidential authority. In conducting their reviews of policy-influencing positions agencies shall accordingly disregard the provisions of 5 CFR part 302, subpart F, 5 CFR 210.102(b)(3), and 5 CFR 210.102(b)(4). The U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board lacks authority to hear appeals pursuant to the nowinoperative subpart F for the same reason. OPMβs October 25, 2024, guidance document entitled βImplementing Guidance for Upholding Civil Service Protections and Merit System Principles Regulationsβ is hereby rescinded in its entirety.
New OPM memo on Schedule F: very broad categorizations of who can be reclassified from career civil service to political appointee.
Also: Ignoring the Biden rule limiting Schedule F. The President does not have to follow the APA when it comes to rulemaking on personnel.

I think the liberalish law professors insisting that their hobgoblin FedSoc buddies are acting in good faith and the Senate Ds being quietly polite are suffering from very similar brain worms
No one wants to admit their colleagues are bad people
it is very telling of these guysβ conception of how power works that they see issuing a flurry of executive orders as evidence of presidential strength and vigor and not a sign that the president is too weak to pursue a serious legislative agenda

Direct govt control over broadcaster speech exceeds FCC authority and is incompatible with free speech.
FCC Chair Brendan Carrβs resuscitation of these three complaints is the latest example of his willingness to wield the FCC in a partisan manner.
The FCC is not the presidentβs speech police.
This is a profoundly important point. Itβs one thing to do wrong believing you are right. That is an error in reasoning, to which weβre all liable. Whatβs really damnable is simply not caring whether what youβre doing is right. And that distinguishes Trump & MAGA from traditional conservatives.
