Trump: "President Obama -- and if he wanted help I'd give him help -- he's building his library in Chicago & it's a disaster. He said something to the effect of 'I only want DEI. I only want woke.' He wants woke people to build it ... he didn't use good, hard, tough, mean construction workers."

When the President of the United States says he doesn’t know if he should uphold the Constitution, it should be a searing red line for every American. If you let him ignore ANY aspect of the Constitution you embolden him to ignore more of it, including the parts that secure YOUR freedoms & rights.

Tariffs are taxation without representation. We wrote a whole Declaration of Independence about it. Threw tea in the harbor and everything.

God exactly. The purpose of writing papers is FOR YOU TO THINK SOMETHING THROUGH, not because a prof has a deficit in their life that needs to be filled by reading 5-7 pages of mediocre bullshit. The bulk of things I recall from undergrad are things I wrote papers about.

This is called a bribe. We all know it’s a bribe. The freight company spending $20 million admits it’s a bribe. Everyone understands this, and yet no one is holding him accountable — especially his own party which claims to care about law and order.

Donald Trump is undermining the rights of every single American. He’s sending innocent people to foreign prisons. He’s deporting folks with no criminal backgrounds for no reason. And now, he’s targeting U.S. citizens.

From past 24 hours in US most productive ag region: —ICE is terrorizing people at universities, across East Coast, in big cities, at airports, etc. Far far less aggressive on ag work crews, in red districts. —Top-of-mind threat: perhaps permanent loss of ag export markets, from tariffs.

I want to emphasize something here: there is no universe where a President with cratering, sub-40 approvals can just dictate to the American business community. These people do not understand the contingencies they depend on. *AMAZON PLAN TO SHOW TARIFF COSTS A 'HOSTILE' ACT, LEAVITT SAYS

I see the already historically unpopular president is exploring how to get the military invovled in “assisting” local law enforcement just a few weeks before the real shortages caused by his inept economic policy start hitting. Probably nothing to worry about.

These cases will never survive federal courts overseen by federal judges...which means at some point I'm pretty sure they're going to resort to military tribunals or kangaroo courts in soccer stadiums

Through all his troubles, neither the DOJ/FBI nor any state authorities ever subjected Donald Trump to arrest, preferring in every case to proceed by indictment and voluntary surrender. It’s notable that a sitting judge and pillar of the Milwaukee community was not extended the same courtesy.

DO NOT COMPLY IN ADVANCE!! Trump isn't winning but fear is certainly making it easier for him to get people compliant. Remember, its not just being anti something but we are Pro Democracy and fighting for our rights afforded us by our Constitution.
