Usually when states go to court alleging federal coercion in violation of the 10th Amendment there is not a literal video of the President doing it.

RFK Jr. thinks that a clinical trial should be done for the entire childhood vaccine schedule. Here’s why that will never happen. 1. You can’t do a randomized trial of something that we already know is safe and effective. There would have to be a placebo group that didn’t get vaxxed. Unethical.

“I am a king and my will is law” isn’t a clever distraction from what he’s doing, it’s the central underlying justification for everything he’s doing.

The Department of Agriculture fired employees working on the avian flu outbreak because of DOGE. DOGE works directly for President Trump. So from now on, when this kind of thing happens, it should be reported as, "Trump fires employees working on avian flu."

Old friend just laid off by USDA, 1 mos short of his probationary period as senior researcher. Brilliant person who left a tenured faculty position several yrs ago to join USDA. Bright early-career researchers also being laid off. USDA is terminating a generation of highly-qualified scientists.

If Mayor Adams was fired by the Governor, wouldn't that remove the rationale supporting DOJ motion to dismiss the indictment? Couldn't the judge then reject it?

Musk and his army of dipshits on Twitter keep pointing to Bill Clinton’s federal worker reduction in the 1990s to defend Trump. The difference? Congress passed a law that Clinton signed, he didn’t just get the nearest billionaire to illegally start dismantling the government based on his whims.

We got a Costco membership for the first time in our lives today. They asked why & I said because treat your workers well, you value diversity, & you didn’t cave in to authoritarian demands. He said: “We’ve been getting lots of folks saying that, thanks for joining.” Who needs a gallon of ketchup?

Having read it a bit more closely, I can say that it's far more than a nothingburger; every single source they cite, to a one, directly contradicts their claim that birthright citizenship might not extend to the children of unlawful aliens.

This is horseshit. If you fear protests will lead to martial law then you already live under martial law — and you’re the one who declared it. Plus, it won’t lead to a declaration of martial law and the fear misconstrues the nature of the threats we face.

The greatest political scandal today is not what Trump is doing. It is the fact that congressional Republicans have given up their role in the constitutional system as a check on the executive branch. If we are in a constitutional crisis, it is as much on Mike Johnson and John Thune as anyone else.

This negotiation between the US and Russia, and cutting out Ukraine, is just like when Trump cut out Afghanistan and negotiated with Taliban. We see how that “good deal” turned out. Afghanistan was on Trump Every Trump deal fails

How does Judge Ho not call Emil Bove into court tomorrow morning for a contempt hearing? This seems like a credible accusation of a corrupt bribe in a pending case, which Bove allegedly accepted (and then destroyed evidence).

This is extraordinarily dangerous. Tomorrow, the legacy media will ask Republican officials about this. Those officials will lie and obfuscate. And the legacy media will move on. That is part of the crisis we face.

I’ll note… Sassoon clerked for Justice Scalia, was picked by the Trump administration for this role, and was responsible for successfully prosecuting SBF. She’s also a member of the Federalist Society. No liberal prosecutor here.

The best messaging is to state what everyone knows to be the truth in the simplest and clearest way possible. So it’s hard to imagine more effective messaging than this.

Statement from Senator Elizabeth Warren: “Vought is giving big banks and giant corporations the green light to scam families. The CFPB has returned over $21 billion to families cheated by Wall Street. Republicans have failed to gut it in Congress and in the courts. They will fail again.”
