A drug addict usurped congressional power, and unilaterally gutted US soft power. Members of the administration knew about, and were disturbed by, his drug use (WSJ). Isn’t this a cover-up?

When Trump tried to stay in power after losing in 2020, the military stayed out of the fight. He won’t make that mistake again. He’s purging generals, installing loyalists, and “encouraging rank-and-file service members to side with him against anyone who stands in his way, including the courts.”

As my scheduled time as a Special Government Employee comes to an end, I would like to thank Trump for the opportunity to steal your data, rig the government and dismantle democracy. The DOGE mission will only strengthen as Russell Vought carries it forward, completing the coup I helped jumpstart.

When a Government is scientifically illiterate, but doesn’t know it, then its actions (or inactions) can be a recipe for the dismantling of an informed and enlightened Democracy. #ScienceMatters

What do I think of Trump decision to revoke Harvard's right to enroll international students? I say it violates First Amendment. See big-name First Amendment expert Eugene Volokh's explanation why. I add only that govt shouldn't have right to control student visas at all. reason.com/volokh/2025/...

In addition to defunding Planned Parenthood, the bill the House passed this a.m. includes a last-minute change that would make it difficult-to-impossible for private plans on the Obamacare exchanges to cover abortion. Some states, including NY and CA, require such coverage.

Trump admin taking a page out of Orban's playbook w this ongoing harassment of the country's best-known university. Harvard is rich enough to weather the hit and challenge this in court but the fight will be yet another stress test for the rule of law and a diversion of resources away from research.

Right now, Republicans in Congress are trying to push through a bill that would put millions of Americans at risk of losing their health care. They want to cut federal funding for Medicaid, take away tax credits that help more people afford coverage, and raise costs for working class families.

Republicans just made their big bad billionaire tax bill worse. They just added a provision that pressures health exchange plans to drop most abortion services—EVEN if federal funds aren’t used to pay for them. Millions of women will lose access to basic health care if the GOP gets their way.

Kristi Noem, the homeland security secretary, bungled answers about habeas corpus, incorrectly asserting that the legal right of people to challenge their detention by the government was actually the president’s “constitutional right” to deport people.

Olszewski: We’re still learning in real time what this bill even includes. Taking out fees on gun silencers? Making tanning easier—while they’re gutting food benefits and taking away healthcare from people. They’re turning their backs on veterans. It also adds trillions to the deficit.

Warnock: You literally have, in real time, the leader of another nation-state—in this case, South Africa—there to talk to him about trade, and he’s saying, “Sorry, Mr. President, we don’t have a plane to offer you.” And you see why we have an Emoluments Clause in the first place.
