Holy crap. The DOJ is arguing that the President can unilaterally deport anyone he wants without ANY statutory authority, just on his inherent authority as President over national security. That is a terrifying claim to make and not one that has ever been recognized before in US history.

Women comprise more than half of the population and make history virtually everywhere. 💪 Yet, only 13 U.S. national park sites specifically commemorate some aspect of women’s history.

Posted by Rasmus Jarlov, a conservative MP in Denmark: “Trump yesterday repeated that he does not know if Denmark has a right to Greenland ‘because a boat arrived 200 yrs ago’. Weird statement from an American. Denmark's ownership of Greenland is more than twice as long as the history of the USA.”

#resist #demsstandup. 1. Weren't we always told a shut down is bad for the controlling party? Or was that just cover to cowtow to GOP demands in the past? 2. Remember Wendy Davis in Texas? A Filibuster is a powerful tool. Without it, we end up with a 6-3 conservative majority in scotus

No matter how the Trump administration tries to word it, it’s clear that Mahmoud Khalil’s detention is a retaliatory, unconstitutional attack on his protected First Amendment activity. Ideas are not illegal. #FreeMahmoudKhalil cc: @aclu.org

As another Trump-induced market crisis unfolds from tariffs, it's time we ask "What's the Matter with Billionaires?" I've run the numbers. Billionaires do better under Dems. So why do billionaires keep supporting GOP policies against their economic interests? See my latest piece on why. (TLDR 🧵⬇️)

This current Social Security riff by Trump is completely debunked 100% total made-up BS. No president has EVER lied this baldly from the podium. And Vance, Johnson, and the whole GOP just nod and go along with it.

Trump backed GOP into a big corner with his “balanced budget” point. The ONLY way House GOP could even think about upholding their “no cuts to Medicaid” swing seat promises and their spending cut mandates is deficit spending and bad math. Now they have to gut Medicaid & hand it to Elon in public.

Donald Trump is LYING about Social Security. Social Security has extremely low rates of fraud. Trump is setting the stage to cut off benefits to people he deems enemies or undeserving. HANDS OFF OUR EARNED BENEFITS!

I knew this would happen, but it's still surreal to hear another nation's leader talk to us in a televised address the way US presidents have historically spoken to the citizens of countries led by dictators and despots.
