Trump’s new AI website is kinda fun, it turns out.
Can the president use taxpayer funds to air his old campaign ads on TV?

No. Federal appropriations law has long barred using taxpayer funds for political advertising.

Fed. judge holds that Trump's IRS lawsuit and purported "settlement" which created the Trump slush fund and IRS liability waivers were a fraud on the court. Trump's lawyers sanctioned and referred. Acting AG Blanche catches an ethics complaint for his role. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
These facts lead to the inexorable conclusion that the “settlement” terms, the individuals who signed the “settlement” as well as the putative beneficiaries of the “settlement,” demonstrate a shared, unitary interest. And the unilateral revision and renunciation of the “Fund” component of the “settlement” demonstrate the fact that all Parties were aligned, and ultimately, undifferentiated. This action was never about a party seeking judicial resolution of a legal issue or a factual dispute. The nature of the suit itself and the conduct of the Parties and counsel from its filing make plain that this was an attempt to use the Court to provide some legitimacy to an agreement to confer immunity to people and entities affiliated with the President and to earmark billions of dollars from American taxpayers to redress grievances not defined in the law. The President may be the functional “dominus litus” of the Executive Branch, but as a party to a civil suit, he, as well as all the parties and lawyers before a court, are bound by the rules. Ensuring that our courts are used only for the express purpose created by the Constitution is the obligation of every judge and an obligation that this Court must discharge in light of the matter before it.

New in PN: Are voters finally realizing that GOP presidents are disasters? "The last 3 R presidents have handed their D successors an economic catastrophe, & the last 3 Ds have had to do their best to clean it up. Why don’t Ds ever say that? I think it would make a difference" — @mjtoma.bsky.social

At this point, how can you argue against Trump being an intentional plant to destroy the USA from the inside? Absolutely nothing he has done has benefited the country. Not one single thing. Every single thing he has done is exactly what a foreign government trying to harm the country would do

The national message should be super simple: "Trump's made billions since he went back to Washington. How are you doing?" This was Péter Magyar's approach to ousting Viktor Orbán: focusing not on his insults to democracy, but rather on the corruption & economic exclusion that have been the result.

BREAKING: The plaintiffs in two of the challenges to Trump's Jan 20, 2025 effort to end birthright citizenship (CASA and Barbara) went back to court today over Trump's new August executive order seeking to limit birthright citizenship.
12. Based on these various aspects of the August 2026 Executive Order's text, it may

be interpreted to immediately deny citizenship to members of the certified class, without regard
to this Court's class-wide injunction. The Court should therefore lift the stay of proceedings and
order an immediate status conference to seek clarity from Defendants on the meaning of the
August 2026 Executive Order and its potential impact on the certified class.
13. In addition, it is unclear whether the August 2026 Executive Order rescinds the

January 2025 Executive Order, or whether the latter would remain operative but for the
preliminary injunctions barring its enforcement.
14. On August 7, 2026, Plaintiffs asked Defendants to provide clarity on the issues

outlined above related to the scope of the August 2026 Executive Order. Plaintiffs advised
Defendants that if they could not provide clarity, Plaintiffs would move the Court to lift the stay
and to set a status conference to discuss these issues, and Plaintiffs asked Defendants' counsel
for their position on such a motion. On August 10, 2026, counsel for Defendants replied and said that they could "confirm that the new EO operates only prospectively and is not effective until
guidance is issued," and that they "therefore think it is premature to approach the court at this time." Counsel did not provide any statement directly from Defendants to substantiate this
assurance, nor did Counsel respond to the other questions Plaintiffs posed.That should have been the end of this issue. But on August 6, after the Supreme Court's
mandate issued, President Trump signed a new executive order. See Continuing to Protect the Meaning and Value of American Citizenship, The White House (Aug. 6, 2026),
https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2026/08/continuing-to-protect-the-meaning-
and-value-of-american-citizenship/ ("EO2"). Despite the Supreme Court's clear direction, the
1
Case 1:25-cv-00244-JL-AJ Document 80 Filed 08/11/26 Page 3 of 19
President continues to claim for himself the power to "identif[y] ... categories of children" whose
citizenship he intends to deny. Id. § 1.
This new Order violates the Court's existing preliminary injunction, as it purports to strip birthright citizenship from members of the provisionally certified class despite the Supreme
Court's recent decision. To avoid any doubt in this regard, the Court should underscore that the government may not strip away class members' citizenship through any executive orders or other
similarly flawed assertions of Executive power over birthright citizenship. Accordingly, Plaintiffs
respectfully request that the Court now clarify that its preliminary injunction currently forbids any
denial or infringement of class members' constitutionally guaranteed citizenship or, in the
alternative, modify its injunction or issue a new preliminary injunction to explicitly so provide.'

The way things are going in America, it should be clear we don't have much time. We certainly don't have three years. We need to help ourselves by pushing for impeachment and removal as hard as we can and carrying it out as soon as humanly possible.
