the single most un-american and anti-constitutional statement ever uttered by an american president

As a journalist who covers extremism at the local level, I think it’s a mistake to view Trump’s Napoleonic statement as solely about presidential power. Consider if it’s interpreted as a wink and a nod for any extremist to act outside the law to “save” the country as they see fit

An amazing resignation letter to Bove from an AUSA who worked on the Adams case. Money quote: “I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.”

If you support any of this, you’re honestly just a terrible person. People’s lives are being upended and destroyed. For every 1% increase in unemployment, 40,000 people die—yet some are celebrating.

Between the Bove/Sassoon/Adams contretemps and Attorney General Bondi’s preposterous letters to Apple and Google, Thursday was about as bad a day for the Department of Justice’s credibility as we’ve seen in generations. Me, via “One First”: www.stevevladeck.com/p/124-the-th...

We can take the House before 2026 and stop Project 2025. Two seats in Florida first. This group is first working to register voters. We need 20,000 new voters. Sign up to donate, canvas, write postcards, text, etc. 👇

ok ok so let me get this straight: when this J6er was pardoned for attacking a cop w/bear spray and a metal whip, Houston authorities asked the feds to hold him because he was wanted for solitication of a minor and they... just let him go anyway

This is alarming: The FCC is investigating an SF radio station for reporting on immigration sweeps. Specifically, they're taking issue w/descriptions of immigration enforcement vehicles & locations - simply conveying observable fact in real time. You know, NEWS. www.kqed.org/news/1202597...

Plainly unlawful and unconstitutional. No one can issue such an order; the President and his officers cannot simply ignore an entity created and funded by Congress.
