Trump will defend Biden’s abortion pill rules in Texas case The filing over the regulation of mifepristone indicates an emerging pattern: An effort to preserve executive power.

The Trump administration is *defending* FDA rules allowing abortion pills to be prescribed online & sent by mail in a case it inherited from the Biden admin. Not only that, the DOJ had some pretty spicy things to say ab the challenge brought by Idaho/Kansas/Missouri. www.politico.com/news/2025/05...

Yikes. He shared it himself not long ago… and already forgot… Trump now claims he β€œhad nothing to do with” a depiction of himself as the pope, even though it was just posted on his and the White House’s accounts. It was offensive, un-American, and disgraceful and that’s putting it mildly.

Yeah this is what I’d say. I don’t think you can in conscience vote yes on cloture knowing that amounts to singing off an anti-constitutional putsch. And but it’s also the case a shutdown is risky and could be bad! But what grown up politicians should do is publicly, transparently communicate this.

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. β€œWhat can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

The actual trajectory of Democratic opposition to Trump since 2016 is that Democrats first engaged in #resistance and cultural progressivism, won the House in 2018, defeated Trump and won a trifecta the year of the George Floyd protests, tacked right under Biden, and lost in 2024.

The concept of a plan is ignoring all the fundamental lessons of modern economics? The concept of a plan is economic catastrophe for most of us while billionaires get richer, get huge tax cuts, loot the government for their own benefit?

Not such a great concept of a plan if you ask me.

The market is tanking, Trump just launched a trade war, we told Cyber Command to stand down against Russia, Trump is rolling out a massive crypto scam, and drug dealers have started selling eggs because the profit margin is better. You aren’t distracting us with culture war BS.

Establishing the President's Make America Healthy Again Commission By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, itΒ isΒ hereby ordered: Section 1.

This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a β€œdire threat to the American people and our way of life”.

This is a manifesto against disability.

This is the language of eugenics.

I saw someone on Reddit call the flood of EOs a rich man's DDoS attack, and that seems apt.

reporting that omits or downplays the perfect record of TRO's in stopping Musk-Trump is irresponsible and wrong. DO BETTER. enjoined: fork in road, treasury access, FBI name collection, birthright citizenship, spending freeze.

After vowing to protect DOGE workers, Trump prosecutor is silent on employees targeted by 'DEI watch list' Ed Martin, a former "stop the steal" activist, has offered Elon Musk the services of his office. But he had no comment on a list targeting other government workers.

The offer by a top Justice Department official to protect a specific group of government employees was notable, in part because of his silence as another group of federal workers is also being targeted.
