Donald Trump is deporting legal US residents to a foreign gulag, and he has stated publicly that he is moving on to citizens next. This is a Constitutional crisis. Will a single Republican stand up for our Constitution?

Every elected official should be demanding that the administration follow SCOTUS's order and return Garcia to the U.S. immediately.
The President is not a king, and court orders are not optional.
If they can bypass courts for him, then they can try to do the same to any of us.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.
We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.
They own what happens next.

Putin and Russia are the bad guys.

Trump has us siding with the bad guys.

DOGE is inflating its savings claims. DOGE counts fully paid contracts as βsavings.β
Elon Muskβs U.S. DOGE Service says it has saved $55 billion by cutting jobs, canceling contracts, and renegotiating leases. But a closer look suggests that number is misleading.

Congress was denied entry to both the U.S. Department of Education and the Treasury, where Musk staffers blocked the doors. Along with its appropriations responsibilities, Congress holds oversight authority over federal agencies. Blocking congressional access to these agencies is illegal.
