House GOP is holding a hearing on their tax bill at 1:00 AM because they don't want us to know about their scheme to strip 13.7 million people of health coverage & they think no one will stay awake for it.

I’ll be there, testifying & offering amendments to protect our families.

Kristi Noem incorrectly defined habeas corpus as the president’s right to deport people. Huh? That’s… not even close.

Rand Paul on Fox Biz: "I do think the jet probably sends the wrong signal, and I don't like the look or appearance of it, so I would hope he would reject it. The Constitution specifically says you can't take gifts from foreign leaders."

Just the U.S. president introducing his top donor to a brutal dictator. Totally normal. Nothing corrupt at all.

Rule of law is ‘endangered,’ chief justice says Speaking at Georgetown Law, Chief Justice John Roberts denounced “ad hominem” criticism of the justices.

It's almost as if granting a criminal blanket immunity was a bad idea.

Just FYI because evidently Fox or OAN or whatever is pushing the lie that America accepted the Statue of Liberty and that’s equivalent to the plane.

Congress VOTED to approve receiving the statue. So congress should vote on the jet

US and China reach a deal to slash sky-high tariffs for now, with a 90-day pause U.S. and Chinese officials said they had reached a deal to roll back most of their recent tariffs and call a 90-day truce in their trade war for more talks on resolving their trade disputes.

China continues dog-walking Trump in negotiation, and “ongoing talks” do not promise any stability. We’re still barreling towards a summer of empty shelves.

The Constitution disagrees. The Emoluments Clause, part of Article I, Section 9, Clause 8, bans office holders from taking ANY gifts from foreign countries. There is no mention of quid pro quo. That is because the Founding Fathers knew that even the *appearance* of corruption promotes corruption.
