The nature of “shock and awe” is that it makes it hard to see or think clearly. What’s playing out through a veneer of chaos is a deliberate tactical program to create a system in which the President has sole authority over the entire executive branch: www.newyorker.com/news/the-led...

Here’s the thing about the White House banishing the AP that makes me crazy How does the rest of the White House press corps not understand that the AP is a proxy for *all the rest of them?

Of course. But being the party standing up for those fired will mean a lot to those fired and their families. It will also show the country that they are trying to bring order to chaos. And if they can get any Republican support at all, that's huge leverage for March 14

Russia launched an unprovoked full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February of 2022. Since then, thousands of Ukrainians have perished. Entire towns and cities reduced to rubble. It will take them decades to recover, if at all. For Trump to casually flip the narrative via tweet is beyond disgusting.

Someone should tell Crockett the next step is to destroy the blue states. The plan is to make us all indentured servants to oligarchs and do away with government. The government won’t be needed to serve people if the people are in servitude to the oligarchs.

If the justice system is gutted, and replaced by a regime where cronyism makes adherence to laws optional, who will want to hire skilled lawyers trained to counsel clients on complying with the law? That's a question lawyers thinking about joining Trump's attack on the rule of law should be asking.
