There are two things that have always been true about Trump. 1. He doesn't now, or at any point in his life ever given a shit about you. 2. He doesn't now, or at any point in his life know what the fuck he's talking about.

I'm curious how Pence's livelihood depends on him trashing Trump. How exactly is his "complete fiscal future" dependent on this?

Well-said! Trump can't be a dictator on his own. Those politicians who stood by and did nothing own this fall into Fascism just as much (if not more) as Trump does.

We're now at the "use the military to enforce the law" phase of America's Rise to Fascism. Said another way, he's gearing up to authorize the use of the military against American citizens.

Happy Easter to all those who celebrate. And friendly reminder that Jesus said "Verily I say unto you, inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these My brethren, ye have done it unto Me."

If there's a God, Trump is fucked.

Can we stop talking about Trump deporting people? He is not deporting people. He is sending people who have not been convicted (or even charged) with a crime to a prison in another country. That's not deportation. Trump is disappearing people. Call it what it is.

Imagine if a CEO used a social media app to talk about trade secrets and accidentally added a journalist to the chat? The shareholders would be calling for him to be fired immediately.

You want to run our country like a business? Then call for Hegseth to be fired immediately.

It doesn't bother me to see him helping a little kid up the stairs. That's a nice, human thing to do. What does bother me is that Musk and his kid are routinely flying on Air Force One and Marine One. Musk shouldn't be using government assets and flying on the taxpayers dime.

Right?? "Judge, you should rule in my favor because the highest court in the land is also going to rule in my favor on a different but related issue." Doesn't sound shady and ominous at all....

Outlawing the Opposition Learn about Hitler’s early measures against "enemies of the state," including the Enabling Act and the first concentration camp at Dachau.

Trump isn't original. We've seen these moves before. Hitler also used "National Security" as an excuse to go after political dissidents or anyone he deemed an enemy to his agenda. #FreeMahmoudKhalil #BringBackHelyehDoutaghi #TrumpisaFascist

#Musk is raiding the federal government for all its worth. Which was, of course, always the plan. Greed is a disease with no cure, and Musk is terminal.

Of course mistakes were made! That's what happens when a bunch of unqualified people hack through agencies with a dull machete with their eyes closed.

If a key aspect of what President Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and others are doing right now is seeing what they can get away with β€” and what they can convince people that they can do β€” then a key part of pushing back against that needs to be challenging everything that can be challenged.

And, multiple strategies might be taken to challenge certain actions, some of which will be more successful than others.

From a litigation perspective, in other words, not suing is sometimes β€œobeying in advance.” Actions need to be challenged.

The mere fact of litigating can change implementation of policy to improve its application to those affected. Even a loss can advance awareness about oppressive steps being taken by the administration.

"The reality of litigation challenging the Trump administration is that it isn’t all going to win.

That’s OK.

Forcing the administration to defend its actions, on the record and in public, is important.
