The most amazing part of the legal "analysis" provided by Trump's DOJ is the assertion it is not a constitutionally-prohibited bribe as long as it passes to Trump's personal use before he leaves office. Just amazing.

I didn't hunt down terrorists around the world so that Mike Lawler could have seniors dragged out of town halls like criminals. NY-17 deserves a real leader, not a coward.

Our next Surgeon General seems a little fraudy and unqualified but what else is new for current federal leaders? 🚩 lied about where she earned medical degree 🚩 lied about military service 🚩 zero public health experience 🚩 no published research 🚩 lied about board certifications

As we’ve said before now confirmed. FOIA requests reveal that DOGE employees are pulling in six-figure salaries, with many holding the title of “Expert,” a specific Office of Personnel Management (OPM) designation that pays around $190,000 a year.

If Axios is doing this, it's because they know there's no risk to the Trumps in exposing this ridiculous corruption—another John Roberts production.

Republicans are pushing to restrict abortion pills based on a garbage new 'study.' We’ve seen fake data like this reach SCOTUS—but if we make it politically toxic now, we might stop it before it spreads. Feel free to steal these images, or read the full debunk in my newsletter

Walz: You have a situation where the Secretary of Health basically said it and was speaking with the language of eugenics, that some people just don't matter. People like Deanna's son or my son or those of you listening tonight. So look, this is a fight we must win.

Just to be clear, we reached the arresting-judges-and-deporting-US-citizens-without-due-process stage of the slide into authoritarianism today. And the citizens in question included a toddler and a child with cancer who needs treatment in the US.
