Donald Haase

There is nothing clever or funny about this image, Mr. President. We just buried our beloved Pope Francis and the cardinals are about to enter a solemn conclave to elect a new successor of St. Peter. Do not mock us.

Oh wow.

Note: This response (below, which is real) to Trump’s tweet depicting himself as pope is from the New York State Catholic Bishops, who represent the collective bishops of the state.

Among them is Cardinal Dolan of NYC, who Trump appointed to his new religious liberty commission this week.

The Courts Must Stop Presuming Donald Trump is a Regular President Read more here.

The time has come for the judiciary to scrap the presumption of regularity. It is yet another outdated norm that we can no longer afford. Those fighting to preserve democracy already face a daunting task without judges reflexively giving Trump the benefit of the doubt.

The conman who was forced to shut down his fake "university" because its operation was consumer fraud, is trying to undermine America's oldest, most prestigious, legitimate university through an abuse of presidential power.

What an embarrassment. It’s wild that the official position of the US Government is now pro-Nazi.

Human rights nightmares show ‘the crazies’ who wanted to abolish ICE were right | Will Bunch The nightly parade of horror stories about an American secret police proves the current system is broken beyond repair.

In Reagan's 1980s, America had just 35 undocumented immigrants behind bars. Today, nearly 48,000 sit in squalid detention, many thrown there by a mask-wearing U.S. secret police that smashes homes, cars and violates human rights

It's time to abolish ICE. My column www.inquirer.com/opinion/ice-...

Here’s a judge actually writing for the ages (albeit in a footnote)

A screenshot of the Wisconsin Right Now story. It reads: Wisconsin Judge Monica Isham Threatens Not to Hold Court Over Hannah Dugan Arrest A picture shows a photo of both Judge Monica Isham and Judge Hannah Dugan side by side.

🚨NEW: Wisconsin judge threatens to go on strike in support of Judge Hannah Dugan, arrested by the FBI.

Monica Isham: “I have no intention of allowing anyone to be taken out of my courtroom by ICE & sent to a concentration camp without the due process the constitutions we swore to support require.”👏

If you needed any further proof that the arrest of Judge Dugan was a propaganda opportunity and a fear tactic, here you go.

Nothing about this is normal—it’s authoritarianism!

Autism isn’t an epidemic. It's not a disease. It’s a natural variation in how people think…which, frankly, is a relief in a world where most people don't think at all.

Rolling Stone headline: Trump has now deported multiple U.S. citizen children with cancer

Donald Trump isn’t just illegally removing U.S. citizens from the country without due process.

He’s illegally removing U.S. citizens who are literal children undergoing care for cancer.

An Open Letter to Hateful White Americans Dear Hateful White Americans,

I wonder how someone with so many advantages and so much privilege still manages to feel oppressed, still imagines they are marginalized, still feels perpetually under siege by the world around them—a world that has always favored them.

Last minute additions to the budget dismantle tenure, take aim at public universities One Democrat said higher education institutions are "slowly being destroyed."

Indiana University has served the young people of the state and the country and the world as a model public university. These measures, passed without review or discussion, destroy IU’s independence and will if allowed to stand undo its essential character. (1/3)

To everyone shouting “no one is above the law” referring to that Milwaukee judge: We have a criminal in the White House. A guy who’s proven to be utterly lawless. And you’re perfectly fine with that. So take your “no one is above the law” bullshit and shove it up your ass.

If somebody came and took your property, and was busy trying to kill you to take even more, getting back the property they took isn’t a “ridiculous request,” it’s the bare minimum. This president is unwilling to push back against RUS. I’m beyond caring why. We aren’t RUS’s bitch, he is. He must go.

The President said of the U.S. economy: "We are a department store, and we set the price. I meet with the companies, and then I set a fair price, what I consider to be a fair price, and they can pay it, or they don't have to pay it."

And then... I lost it.

What a topsy-turvy traipse into authoritarianism when judges are afraid to arrest Trump administration people for clear contempt of court but Trump administration people are unafraid to arrest judges for no good reason whatsoever.

DOJ personnel don’t comment on anything beyond the four corners of a charging document in order to avoid prejudicing a defendant’s rights. Here’s the policy. The Attorney General of the United States violated it yesterday.

Trump is and always has been Putin's putty.

Jimmy Carter had to get rid of his peanut farm because it might look like he made an unseemly profit from being president. But Donald Trump is being allowed to shake down foreign countries to personally pay him protection money with his cryptocurrency to stave off his insane, illegal tariffs.

Website For MAGA-Friendly Businesses Backfires As People Use It For Boycotts Social media posts about PublicSquare have gone viral as Trump critics use it to find companies not to support – the opposite of what the site was set up for.

NEW: PublicSquare, a website that lets you search for businesses in your community that explicitly want you to know they endorse Trump/MAGA values, is backfiring as people use it to boycott those businesses. www.huffpost.com/entry/public...

Lawyers Seek Return of Migrants Deported Under Wartime Act An updated lawsuit filed in Washington was the latest in a flurry of suits challenging the Trump administration’s use of the Alien Enemies Act to send migrants to a prison in El Salvador.

Judge Hellerstein noted that no law authorizes the government “to hire a jail in a foreign country where people could be subjected to cruel and unusual punishment not allowable in United States jails.”
