www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c... Rep. Van Orden has introduced a resolution to impeach Judge Engelmayer of SDNY. Surely, Judge Edith Jones will have something to say about this.

This is a facially ridiculous claim, but it exemplifies Trump’s total lack of leadership qualities. This will not be the last tragedy of this administration, and each and every time the response will be the same: Trump will do nothing but try to cover his own ass.

Can't emphasize enough that America's undocumented problems are a GOP creation. It was Reagan who attacked the porous US border that enabled seasonal farm workers to move freely, causing many to fear leaving the US. Companies then realized they could underpay these "illegals," so jobs went to them.

If you do a Nazi salute to own the libs or to troll or to generate discussion or to make a point you are still doing a Nazi salute.

Hey Siri was it a mistake to elect a spineless moron who folds to any appeal to his vanity?

Well but you’d only have that concern if the president had a history of reneging on promises. But he’s never done that before, right?

Given the apparently widespread public support for keeping TikTok available after Sunday, it's really too bad that there isn't some body that could pass something ... a law, maybe ... to repeal the April 2024 statute—and then send it to the President to ... I don't know ... sign it, or something?

Question for people much smarter than me. Would conditioning federal dollars to California on debt ceiling negotiations raise South Dakota v Dole issues? @stevevladeck.bsky.social and @mjsdc.bsky.social being some of these smarter people.

Really is amazing we’ve had six weeks of takes about how Trump “remade the GOP” and no we’re getting: enormous corporate tax cuts; huge cuts to the social safety net and privatization.

Andrew Ferguson is such a fun pick for FTC Commission chair because he recently went out of his way in an opinion to question the constitutionality of FTC admin law judges. So fun.

A key asymmetry of this era of American politics and how it’s covered is that Trump is expected to do bad and corrupt things, so when he does it barely qualifies as news. But Dems are expected to be beyond reproach, so anything that seems even slightly suspect is a huge scandal.

You can’t be cool with Trump, Gaetz, Hegseth and then pretend to be concerned about Sarah McBride, a woman, using the ladies room.

Getting a lot of replies along the lines of "oh, you rube, you still think the law matters" and it feels strategically foolish to just concede that it doesn't. Contest everything. Expose the hypocrisy.
