🏴‍☠️💰 They're not even hiding it anymore. Trump hosts crypto investors at his golf club with the presidential seal while his officials dump stocks before tariff announcements, Vance declares courts shouldn't check executive power, and the Senate illegally overturns California's climate rules.

🌍💲✈️ While House Republicans spent today negotiating baby bond names and appeasing budget holdouts, Trump's government violated court orders to deport migrants, fired independent oversight boards, and accepted a $400 million jet from Qatar that he'll personally keep in three years.

🎭 Every Trump policy comes with its opposite. They deport legal immigrants while claiming to target criminals. They dismantle surveillance oversight after condemning it. They promise billion-dollar defense systems with no plans.

👑 Trump was never subtle about wanting things his way. He is spending his days remaking America in his own image, using the system to settle grudges while elevating his preferences.

🔍 Even on a quiet Sunday, the machinery of power grinds forward. Trump's budget bill advances behind closed-door deals while Americans form a 30-mile human chain of resistance spanning Chicago suburbs.

🕵️🥊 Threats and intimidation are the Trump administration's playbook. Trump officials target judges, artists, and even their own employees who stand in their way.

📺🎖️ The government that should protect you is being weaponized against you instead.

🏥🚑🩺 Your health secretary refuses to give health advice while your surgeon general nominee promotes illegal psychedelics. Meanwhile the Houston weather office has no managers and a Kansas office can't stay open 24/7 as extreme weather season begins.

🏴 They shook hands with dictators and sold out America while you were working for a living. Trump lifts sanctions on Syria's al-Qaeda-linked president and pockets a $400 million Qatari jet while Musk cuts Saudi deals and Tesla's board dumps stock.

💸 $148 million for dinner with Trump. That's what 220 anonymous crypto buyers finally paid today while white South Africans got refugee status and millions fleeing actual genocide remain blocked. America is dying off and being auctioned to the highest bidder.

💰 While Qatar gifts Trump a $400 million flying palace and China buys tariff relief, everything in America is for sale except mercy for a mother torn from her child or healthcare for those who can't afford $35 copays.

100 Days of GovBrief What started as me behaving like an old man yelling at a cloud has turned into a necessary chronicle of this administration's chaos: arresting mayors, threatening Congress members, detaining students and professors.

👩‍👧 While many were planning Mother's Day brunches, Trump's team is planning to dismantle constitutional protections. A federal judge blocked his sweeping government overhaul for 14 days, while sources revealed discussions in the White House with him about suspending habeas corpus.

⚖️ When Supreme Court justices break their typical silence to defend democracy, we're beyond normal politics. It's happened four times in the past three months, a shocking public display for the usually taciturn jurists.

🚨 The Trump regime is building a dystopian surveillance state, but they're so incompetent they can't even protect their own passwords and chat groups. Your taxes, medical records, & Social Security data are merging into one hackable system, overseen by amateurs who leak national intel on Signal.

🛑 34 headlines in one night is double the 60 day average. All of today's important news wouldn’t fit on a normal GovBrief so it had to be redesigned. They're daring you to notice and don't care what you try to stop them. They have no idea how much all of us pulling together can change.

⚠️⛰️ The avalanche is roaring; Newark’s radar fails, FEMA stops knocking, health labs go dark, and wind energy stalls while the White House hollers about migrants. Courts pulled a few people from the slide, yet the mountain keeps charging toward us all.

😳 “I don’t know.” That’s what Trump said multiple times on TV when asked if he has to uphold the Constitution or guarantee due process in the U.S. Believe him. He’s told us over and over: he’s your retribution, he’s here to get rid of people, and now he’s not even sure the law applies.

🇲🇽 🇩🇪 🇦🇺 ✝️ Today, the world said enough. From bishops to border neighbors and longtime allies, it was a Find Out Day for Trump. Mexico rejected his call for a soft military invasion. Germany held Rubio accountable for defending an extreme far-right group...

📻💸 This is how authoritarians punish. This is also how authoritarian regimes fund their activities. Trump’s team is gutting health, housing, education, & science. Not to save money, but because courts will not let them completely erase these programs established by the co-equal legislative branch.

🎖️📺🕍 They renamed a holiday, planned a loyalty parade, and put Dr. Phil on a national religious commission. And why does a country with separation of church and state enshrined create a state-run religion committee?

📉 The economy shrank during his first months in office, but Trump blamed Biden. He took credit for last quarter’s growth, but that was before he took office and before voters chose him. Then he called into a televised townhall where he claimed that he had made no mistakes during his second term.

🚧💸 Trump’s default playbook today is clear: fortify the border with troop-policed “defense strips,” mass-deport declaring Haitian migrants as terrorists, and even using postage images as clues to their whereabouts.

🧱 America is being divided in two. The split isn’t coming. It’s already here. Inside the gates, loyalty buys you protection, wealth buys you access, and history is rewritten by decree.
