Trump ordered the Supreme Court to retroactively rewrite its ruling to erase his $159 billion tariff disaster, then called Democrats "Dumacrats" like a fourth-grader. This is the man with nuclear launch codes.

Watch all of it. And notice at the end that Greg Bovino is right there. It's not a rogue patrol, this is the operation as conducted under the direct supervision of senior DHS officials.

It’s easy to take democracy for granted. It’s easy to assume that the Constitution is in stone. It’s not. This is a moment when your courage and your activism are most needed.

I'm not a business owner, but if my sales are down and I'm making more than what I'm selling, then surely that means operating expenses are higher because your inventory goes up, which means more up-front spending, lower income less profit. Yet stock is up 🤔 finance.yahoo.com/news/tesla-s...

Gavin Newsom’s bullseye: “I know many of you are feeling deep anxiety, stress, and fear. But I want you to know that you are the antidote to that fear and that anxiety. What Donald Trump wants most is your fealty, your silence, to be complicit in this moment. Do not give into him.”

Everyone should say it: The thing about Stephen Miller is not that he is the brains behind Trumpism. Yes, he is one of the people who conceptualizes the impulses of the Trumpist movement and translates them into policy. But that's not what's interesting about Miller. It's not brains. It's bile.

For years we've heard from the right about "welfare queens" and other so-called "freeloaders" pulling one over on the government. But actually, it's the wealthy who are the real freeloaders — pulling one over on us all by skirting their taxes. Where is the outrage over that?
