We’re up to at least 97 cases in which district courts have blocked Trump policies—from 73 different judges (appointed by seven different presidents) in 25 different district courts across 10 circuits. Today’s “One First” looks at what critics of these rulings are leaving out of their narratives:

New piece: Most Trump voters did not "vote to deport moms." They voted bc inflation was high under Biden, to deport criminals, or something else. Many do not support Trump's policies. Welcoming those voters back into the tent is key to future Dem victory. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/many-trump...

SERIOUS QUESTION: What is going on with all these “officers” in tactical gear for a routine traffic stop—with no clear identification? They seem like imposters. And what’s up with that ball cap?

"The White House has viciously lashed out at anyone who has voiced concern about the debt snowballing under Trump, even though it did exactly that in his first term after his 2017 tax cuts."

Trump and Republicans wants them homeless or in jail‼️ Job Corps funding eliminated but prison funds increasing‼️ FFS

What infuriates me so much about this new operation is that it is literally punishing people for following the rules and showing up to their court hearings. It is so toxic to the basic concept of following the rules. It is an operation designed by people who hate the concept of the rule of law.

They were waving “Mass deportation now” signs at the Republican national convention

This is why due process is indispensable.

Oh My God. They are really scraping the bottom of the Barrell now.

This is a political time to wake up EVERYDAY prepared to Speak Truth to Power!......

MUST WATCH: ICE kidnapped a disabled American citizen. Her name is Alma Bowman. Born in the Philippines while her dad served in the U.S. Navy. She’s lived here 48 years. They crashed her wheelchair, denied meds, cut her off from her lawyer—and jailed her. She. Is. A. Citizen.

The secretary of transportation literally goes on tv every day to talk about how pants-pissing terrified he is of public transportation

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

“I voted for Donald Trump, and so did practically everyone here,” said Vanessa Cowart, a friend of Ms. Hui from church. “But no one voted to deport moms. We were all under the impression we were just getting rid of the gangs, the people who came here in droves.” www.nytimes.com/2025/05/28/u...

I don’t condone violence. Usually.

Facts,

Scott Pelley—American author and reporter for CBS News for more than 31 years, did not hold back

They pretend that the USA was founded as a Christian nation. Then they pretend and insist they’re Christians. Then they govern like the motherfucking antichrist.

Donald Trump marked Memorial Day with a bitter, grievance-filled screed attacking judges, immigrants, and his political rivals—and did not even mention the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.

If Joe Biden posted this Memorial Day message, the mainstream media and Republicans would say he is completely unfit to serve, with many calling for the invocation of the 25th Amendment. Because it's Trump, everyone remains silent.

President Trump says Putin has “gone absolutely CRAZY,” and then blames the war on Zelenskyy, Putin, and Biden.

Well payed, Harvard, well played. Harvard offers FREE American Government course.

Yes exactly if by "respecting us" you mean we're an international pariah and the laughingstock of the world.

Having most of the world think you're an a$$hole doesn't make you a victim, it makes you an a$$hole.

Wait, what?!👀😳 I don't think that's how democracy works.

Trump: The whole stealth thing—I'm sort of wondering. We shape a wing this way, they don’t see it but the other way they see it? I’m not so sure.

Trump's West Point commencement audience is totally silent as he rants about trophy wives and yachts

Republicans in Utah commissioned an investigation into gender-affirming care for trans youth after banning it in 2023. They're now rejecting the findings of that investigation which showed access to care reduced suicides and improved "positive mental health and psychosocial functioning outcomes."

“I will end that war in 24 hours. I’ll stop all those lives from being lost. There will be no more bombing of Ukraine and everyone will be happy. It wouldn’t even be tough because I know just what to say to each of them. It may not even take 24 hours.”

Sooo….Trump’s new head of social security administration (who sounds drunk) says he’s the best googler in the east coast. “I’m a great googler. I’m googler in chief.” Lucky he has this skill set because he says he had to google what his new job is!! What is happening, skylights?

When are white people going to grasp the fact that there, but for my blue eyes and white skin, go I?! He's a US citizen just like the rest of us here, dammit!

📌 GOOD READ The killer wrongfully used the atrocities of the HAMAS-Netanyahu war as "a pretext to harm Jews." 1) HAMAS is evil 2) Netanyahu is a tyrant 3) All Harm against innocents is WRONG But Jews in 🇺🇸 aren't responsible for ANY of that! 🛑 STOP THE HATE! 🛑 www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/...

LIE; Jews Say People Speaking Against Genocide In Gaza Are Hiding They Are Anti-Semites. TRUTH; Jews Committing Genocide In Gaza Are Hiding Behind The Words Anti-Semite To Commit Genocide In Gaza

Chicken who voted for Col. Sanders is now part of a meal deal at KFC...

"How many deaths will it take till they know, too many people have died..." Enough children die, people may start to pay attention. Even in Texas.
