Who could’ve foreseen that after the Supreme Court gave Trump immunity from prosecution for committing crimes while in office he would commit lots of crimes while in office?

A federal judge blocked a state’s age‑verification law. Constitutional boundaries matter, even when politics tries to blur them. It is encouraging to see the document still has some force and lends guidance.

The worst part of this is the multiple health care workers saying people aren't coming in for treatments. And this is before the Medicaid work requirements hit. This is what's really going to get that excess mortality counter spinning.

The SEC’s warning on AI‑driven market manipulation is a sign that financial risk is evolving faster than oversight. That said, the SEC enables manipulation, cherry picking who to pursue, usually snagging lower level fraudsters....but rarely looking into the abyss of Fortune 500 heavyweights.

This has been said of many leaders, that mere association with them tarnishes the entirety of a party. We have not witnessed this happen in modern political history. However, it is impossible to imagine the damage to reputation of the Republican Party will be reversed for decades.

Trump reveals location of US snipers and drones, makes his future Triump Arch a legitimate military target for any adversary the US is at war with.
At the strong request of the United States Military, and for National Security purposes, I have agreed to convert the magnificent Triumphal Arch, planned since the Civil War Era many years ago, at the Receptive Circle adjoining the Arlington Memorial Bridge, into a top grade Military Complex/Triumphal Arch, to house, store, and have the rapid ability to use large numbers of drones, plus Snipers, on both the roof and plaza areas, and additionally have and hold large quantities of sniper ammunition in storage. There will be no facility like this anywhere in the World.
Out of the 59 top cities and Capitals, Washington, D.C., IS THE ONLY ONE IN THE WORLD THAT DOES NOT HAVE A TRIUMPHAL ARCH, but it will now and, by far, the greatest of them all! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP
