The Trump administration ignored the court’s instructions again. Over 400 trees were chopped down at D.C.’s public East Potomac Golf Links over the holiday weekend without proper advance notice even after government lawyers promised the judge ample warning before any irreversible work.

A lot of MAGA influencers on X are seeing their engagement PLUMMET today. Even official White House accounts are seeing far fewer defenders in their comments. Why is that?

When I tell people that Donald Trump hates me, they often assume I mean it in a generic sense — that he hates Democrats and people who fight him in court. No, I correct them: he hates me personally. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/trum...

Trump hates me personally. Now he’s taking it to the Supreme Court

As usual, Trump does whatever he wants without permission and then says, "Well it's too late now, the trees are already down. You have to let us finish so we can clean up the mess." Just like with his stupid ballroom.

Walmart is the largest private employer in America, yet 16,055 of its employees were on Medicaid in just 6 states, and 15,515 were receiving food stamps in 9 states. Mostly red states. And those aren’t even national totals. #RepublicanAffordabilityCrisis

Trump just threw a massive lifeline to Vladimir Putin. And to do it, he’s breaking the law. Back in 2022, Congress banned Russian energy imports. I voted for it. The law says the president has to consult Congress before he changes anything. He didn’t. Illegal. Deadly. Disgraceful. Link below!

Donald Trump made a deal with Putin for 36 million barrels of Russian diesel, but that amount won’t move US fuel prices lower. It’ll only fund Putin’s bloody war machine in Ukraine. Putin continues to play Trump like a fiddle.

Justice is one thing. Turning an execution into entertainment is something entirely different, and not something anyone should want to participate in.

Because of the Texas state government's error, Texas "counties are now dealing with nearly a year of backlogged voter registration tasks to process. They could include new registrations or simply updates to voters’ existing records, like a change in address..." www.votebeat.org/texas/2026/0...

Tens of thousands of Texas voter registration applications likely ensnared in state error
Democrats are calling for investigations into why voter registration applications submitted via a DPS portal weren’t forwarded to counties.
