Hernandez: Why is there always money to bomb children in Gaza, but not enough to make sure every kid has a safe place to sleep in this country. We don't have a budget crisis. We have a crisis of our values

This is Pete Hegseth in a nutshell.

Gomez: They got a simple plan defund, defraud, and lie. They're gonna defund Social Security, Medicaid, education, anything that helps the man and woman who's trying to get by to put food on the table or to pay rent. And then they're going to lie about it.

Just in case those of us fighting for democracy in court didn't need another challenge, Big Law turning collaborators is here and growing. My firm and others continue to fight. We will never back down. We will never bend a knee. We will never obey.

Pretending to have a heart

Megyn Kelly roasting Kristi Noem for her hair extensions and makeup is peak hypocrisy. They’re both insufferable.

The real impact.

Surprise! Just as he did when he was in the WH the first time. If it’s not good for his personal pocketbook he quickly backs down: Trump Exempts Smartphones, Other Electronics From Chinese Tariffs - The Wall Street Journal

"What the U.S. is doing now is not reform. It is rejecting the very system it created." - Singapore's Prime Minister Lawrence Wong (April 8, 2025)

Ayep!

If you are a law student or associate who joined one of the Big Law firms that is now collaborating with Trump to do pro bono, ignore the bullshit management is telling you. Here is what Trump has in mind for you. Your spineless leaders will never say no to him.
