In 2024, Biden signed into law a $105 billion measure designed to end a shortfall in air traffic controllers. In 2025, Trump came in and instead began firing hundreds of them. So you can see how clear it is that Biden is to blame for the shortage now.

The Suspension Clause: 1) Doesn't allow the President to unilaterally suspend habeas, especially when Congress is in session; 2) Applies only to cases of invasion or rebellion (this is quite clearly neither); and 3) Even then, applies only "when the public safety may require it." (It doesn't.)

This new Texas law copies anti-Jewish legislation in pre-war Nazi Germany. That legislation consisted of a series of restrictive laws passed in 1933, then the Nuremberg Laws of 1935. This is not an exaggeration.
