Federal law says only the deceased can appear on U.S. currency. But on Monday, the Trump administration defended its plan to mint a $1 coin bearing the image of President Trump.

If #trump holds his end of the bargain up, I am willing to put him on a coin.

Be better, media!
Ghislaine Maxwell is a convicted trafficker and child abuser, not Epstein’s former girlfriend.

If your Congressperson is a Republican, call 909 321-5643 and get transferred to leave a message for them to sign Discharge Bill to #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles.

I don't think it's reached critical mass yet. As the holidays approach, more people are going to become pissed off enough to feel it necessary to act in some way, and holiday pressures, made worse by the economic situation, may just light the fuse. Please. 🙏

Psychiatrists call for RFK Jr. to be replaced as health secretary Two groups are calling for new leadership at HHS after Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s actions on substance abuse treatment and mental health medications, among other issues.

Two psychiatry organizations have released statements saying that the actions of the RFK Jr have increased stigma, instilled fear and hurt access to mental health and addiction care.

Trump increasingly angry as judges he hired hit him with 'stark rejections': report Donald Trump is growing increasingly frustrated that some of the political initiatives of his second term are running into legal roadblocks — particularly as some of his judicial appointees are the on...

Remember every time he insulted judges during the first go-round? This was a predictable result. Most judges take their position and reputation seriously. With every insult, he squandered any good will he thought he'd bought by appointing them.

Precisely. Good call.

The regime reeks of desperation right now, y'all. This is like how your abusive ex was his most controlling and dangerous right before you broke free of him. These are scary times bc they are desperate to scare us. They see the American people rising in opposition and they're panicking.

There it is

Rough and Tough Puppy-Killer can't go just anywhere.

The ONLY times any president can federalize the National Guard
is
when:
- a state asks for it & THEY HAVEN'T!
- to enforce federal law to supress a rebellion & there's been NO REBELLION!
- to protect civil rights & INSTEAD he's SUPPRESSING OUR CIVIL RIGHTS to PROTEST!

It's MAGAT UNCONSTITUTIONAL!

“I don’t know this woman, Ghislaine Maxwell — never met her. My lawyer only coached her for, what, eight hours? Then she gets transferred to Club Fed’s Yoga Camp. Total coincidence!” - DJT

If you're coaching someone for 8 hours, you're doing more than "coaching."

That's not rocket science. That's states' rights - based.

Buried in the polls, with every American screaming for the Epstein files, the walls are closing in on Tangerine Palpatine.

Sending troops to every city you can in a desperate attempt to make martial law happen is not strength. It’s the last gasp of a dying regime.

Using helicopters and chemical agents, immigration agents become increasingly aggressive in Chicago Activists, residents and elected leaders say increasingly combative tactics used by federal immigration agents are sparking violence and fueling neighborhood tensions in the nation’s third-largest cit...

"Illinois and Chicago filed a lawsuit Monday aiming to stop President Donald Trump’s administration from sending hundred of National Guard troops to the city."

Good. What in God's name took so long? Suits for injunction are meant to be put together fast.

The entire country is walking on eggshells because a madman is hallucinating about crime sprees and burning cities.

What do the Moms of Liberty have to say about that, I wonder.

Atty for woman shot by Border Patrol claims officer said 'Do something b----' before shooting. Body-camera video appears to contradict the government’s claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Sat. morning in Brighton Park, her atty claimed.

So completely not shocked, I feel sick.

So, the guy who is starting wars in his own home cities thinks he deserves a Nobel Peace Prize.

Did I get this right?

Yes!

Sounds like the equivalent of warfare to me. Time to go gloves off.

Byron used em-dashes copiously in his correspondence. They communicate more than simple punctuation. AI writing, like AI art, is an oxymoron. AI can't replicate human choices with emotional content. I personally find parentheses ambiguous, and overused when breaking the sentence would more clear.

...and the horses 🐎 they rode in on.

Some things are state matters with few exceptions, (health, safety and welfare). The issue is the faux administration's ignoring of these boundaries. But as long as the administration is trying to give its actions the color of law, it needs court approval. Why isn’t Chicago/IL suing for injunctions?

Multiple videos from this weekend show ICE tear-gassing Chicago police officers.

Things feel like they’re spiraling fast across the city.

I could write several blog entries about this, but I’ll just focus on one here: No, Dems aren’t putting anyone earning 4x the poverty level on Medicaid; the cutoff under the ACA is 138% FPL.

And if they were, that could actually cost less than the subsidies provided to enrollees earning 138-400%.

Someone in the DOJ with access to the Epstein files has a conscience and enough love for this country to leak them. Where is this generation’s Deep Throat?
