WELKER: Your secretary of state says everyone who's here, citizens and non-citizens, deserve due process. Do you agree? TRUMP: I don't know. I'm not a lawyer. I don't know. WELKER: Don't you need to uphold the Constitution? TRUMP: I don't know

I do not understand how this isn’t the lead for every US media outlet this morning with push alerts to every phone. The President of the United States, when asked if he was required to follow the US Constitution, said “I don’t know”.

I wonder how many Americans realize that Bribery is one of just two impeachable offenses specifically enumerated in the United States Constitution and the case that Donald Trump has now committed that crime dozens of times in his second term is a legal slam dunk. So shall we get started?

The goddamn cruelty seems to be such a motivating force behind their actions. How can any human being do this to another person and especially to a newborn child???

The cruelty is exactly what the Felon-in-Chief intends. Trump is a sadistic bully and is unhappy if he is not hurting someone.

Trump announced he wants to cut $163B that would've gone to health care, housing, child care, education, clean energy, nutrition, & research. But he wants $1 trillion for the Pentagon, which has never passed an audit. It was never about waste, fraud, and abuse. It's about making the rich richer.

Defied him to his face: Mills appeared exuberant as she declared that the state had won this court battle with the Trump admin, saying “I stood in the White House and when confronted by the president of the United States, I told him I’d see him in court. Well we did see him in court, and we won.”

Both Rubio's tweet, and the response, are remarkable artifacts. You have a Secretary of State tweeting right wing talking points to defend Neo Nazis, and the country where Nazis originated telling him to sod off.

I know, norms and all that, but the default Dem position should be: We think this is illegal but if the courts say you can do this then we are going to rip the guts out of the entire conservative movement. No more Heritage, FedSoc, etc. All of them lose their tax exempt status.

It’s no coincidence that the university that has most publicly pushed back against Trump is the one facing his greatest wrath. For Trump, this isn’t really about Harvard. It’s a warning shot to anyone who dares challenge his edicts.

Don't be distracted by whatever oppo they dish out on Kilmar or whomever they try to disappear and destroy next. Trump is defying a 9-0 Supreme Court order to bring him back. That's a Constitutional Crisis, and pissing on the graves of our Founding Fathers
