Your regular reminder that almost everything Trump is getting away with is not because of presidential strength, but because of congressional weakness and judicial deference. The constitutional tools are already there to fix this, but those who can fix it are refusing to do so.

ROCKET IS MISSING IN BROOKLYN. Last seen near Union at McCarren Park. He's 13 pounds. If you've seen or found him please go here: www.lostmydoggie.com/details.cfm?... and/or phone 877-818-0060 and PLEASE RT ROCKET!

Trump and Republicans have gone after health care, food assistance, Social Security, veterans’ benefits, education, and cancer research. (Just to name a few...) For what? More money for billionaires. Higher prices. Chaos and cruelty for hardworking people.

Brooke Rollins, Trump’s Sec. of Agriculture, was just on CNN pushing the lie that tariffs are a “national security” issue. Right.👌Cloaking the plummeting of our retirement savings, rising prices & economic pain for everyday Americans—while isolating us from key allies—as nat sec? Give me a break.

The hits keep coming: Republicans are quietly preparing to sell off public lands – owned by the taxpayers – to pay for their tax breaks for billionaires.

I get that people are alarmed by Trump making noises about running for a third term, but the bigger alarm is confronting the third month of this horror show. Let’s not be distracted.

If you’re upset about the chaos and corruption Trump is inflicting on your country—whether your focus is the nihilistic dismantling of government, the economy, our foreign relations, or his threats to the rule of law—please join the nationwide marches on April 5. Learn more here 👉 handsoff2025.com

Our first post is a big one...Statement from Keker, Van Nest & Peters on Trump’s Latest Executive Order “Preventing Abuses of the Legal System and the Federal Court.”

I founded and chair an "elite law firm" and we are not in retreat. I have spoken with many other "elite" firm leaders that are staffing up. What the WSJ means is large corporate law firms. Please do not confuse quality with cowardice.

Today is the 60-year anniversary of Bloody Sunday, when 600 courageous Americans marching for civil rights were brutally attacked in Selma, Alabama. We must always stand up for voting rights, acknowledge our shared history, and fight for justice and equality for all.

I wrote section 230 to protect the little guys and the upstarts like Bluesky. Repealing section 230 only helps Meta, Musk, and Donald Trump.

Looking at some survey data here. Trump/Elon cutting off all cancer cure research is the issue that freaks voters out more than any other, also the one they've heard the least about. Important for voters to hear more about this.

Reporters with access to agency heads should absolutely be asking them to own each and every one of these cuts on the record. Because the Senate-confirmed cabinet members are the ones gutting their own departments, right?

The House Republican budget scheme does absolutely nothing to help everyday Americans with groceries, gas or housing prices. It will force even more middle class families to live paycheck to paycheck, while giving their billionaire buddies a huge payout to buy a new private jet.

New blog post: Timothy Snyder’s essay, “The Logic of Destruction,” offers a good place to start for understanding the oligarchy taking shape in America right now.

A really important email from my friend Senator @chrismurphyct.bsky.social . As he says "this is a 5 alarm fire." America is under attack right now.

As Republicans move a budget resolution tonight, it’s important to understand this: they're working on tax breaks for billionaires while slashing health care, education and public safety and doing nothing about the really big problems most Americans are facing, like the rising costs of housing.

This is so damn messed up. Nobody knows what DOGE is, what DOGE does, what DOGE has the authority to do/doesn’t have the authority to do, who’s in charge of DOGE, etc, etc, etc…and this is all possible bcuz Congress just stopped doing that whole “separation of powers/checks & balances” thing.

Elon is looking at more than just your social security number. Yes, really. They now have access to the social security database and are clearly looking to see what they can slash from your hard earned payments.

my DMs are also open

See below for my statement in response to Chairman Loudermilk's "Interim Report":

“Trump lied about an election being stolen and then sicked a mob on the Capitol. It's funny that you roll your eyes at this, Kevin, because you're the one who went down and resurrected him...We elected the most dangerous....human being that America has ever elected. And Kevin, you helped him."
