The Trump admin has revoked Temporary Protected Status for more than 300,000 Venezuelans in the United States. As I have been saying for months: Trump is not only going after undocumented people. He's also "de-documenting" people who are here and working legally www.nytimes.com/2025/02/02/u...

I'm not saying this is a coup. But if you were going to do a coup, how would things look different from recent events -- seizing the federal payments system, federal purging law enforcement, threatening to sic armed US Marshals on civil servants guarding classified data

Last year, law enforcement intercepted about 19 kilograms of fentanyl at the US-Canada border. At the southern border, agents seized 9,600 kilograms. The idea that Canada is a major source of drugs is a lie, and this admin is hoping you’re stupid enough to believe it.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Trump has no idea whatsoever what Musk is actually doing even though he also signed the executive order giving DOGE “full and prompt access to all unclassified agency records, software systems, and IT systems."

The most surreal and maddening feature of the campaign was that everyone agreed that high prices were the main issue but the guy explicitly, consistently running on a platform of raising everyone’s prices won voters most concerned about high prices. We hammered this time and time again and yet.
