Why is the Deputy Chief of Staff being interviewed by CNN? Why id the Deputy Chief of Staff commenting in public at all? His job is to advise the President, who---in a real universe---would then grant an interview to explain his decision to the American people.

Speaker Johnson continues to stall the swearing in of Rep.-elect Grijalva so as to avoid having to deal with the Epstein discharge petition. Why shouldn’t Dems make support for reopening the government contingent on adding to the funding measure a provision mandating release of the Epstein files?

Do the right-wing anti-abortioners call this murder?

I'm so unsure how I feel about this. Except for the lying, he seems to be a great guy. Unlike, say, the president, who lies on the daily and is NOT a great guy. The former has harmed no one and the latter has harmed the entire nation.

Serious question: What's stopping the State of Illinois from arresting Stephen Miller & charging him with incitement?

The Senate didn't confirm him. He's just a guy.

At some point, the states MUST use their authority to prosecute, because the federal government certainly will not.

This is a breathtaking abuse of the law and power by the President of the United States.

America is on the brink of martial law.

Do not be silent.

you! are! a! lawyer!

I fear that the legal community will act like Trump admin's lawyers are normal lawyers--like they'll get nice firm jobs and their law schools will invite them to talk to students, etc--but the lawyers facilitating Trump's lawlessness should be professionally and socially shamed

It hasn't been said enough. We'll see if it amounts to anything, but good for the judge here.

Thank you for sharing this! Incredibly well written. "The President’s determination was simply untethered to the facts" describes every single thing tRump does.

JD VANCE: "My mother got the drugs that almost killed her from Mexicans."

REALITY: JD's mother got the drugs that almost killed her from her hospital patients, whom she stole from.

If Trump is allowed to murder civilians at sea, he is allowed to murder civilians in your streets. Charges need to be drawn up for his actions in the Caribbean and presented to a US court, military court, and international court. Everyone involved must also face charges.

18,000 Minnesota federal employees have been furloughed thanks to Trump’s shutdown.

Republicans are prioritizing tax breaks for the rich while defunding Minnesotans’ health care and leaving them without pay

After the embarrassment of the Dept. of War meeting (a complete waste of time and $) Gov. Pritzer of Ill. called out the crazy conduct of tRump saying that the 25th Amend. must be invoked - Not Impeachment, but rather a removal from office for his Mental Decline and Demensia; its gaining support.
