Lately, it feels like the Supreme Court is being used to strip rights from Americans, not protect them—why take away progress instead of helping people live better lives?

Of course advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

If courts are ignored, Congress paralyzed, and law follows loyalty, democracy collapses—not with a bang, but a shrug. The system depends on character. Trump is the stress test, and survival may hinge on how many are willing to say no, even at a cost.

If you're a reporter in a White House press briefing as the spokesperson for the government asserts flatly that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a member of the MS-13 gang who's guilty of human trafficking and you sit there silently without shouting out "PROVE IT!"
