If Republicans want to be competitive in the 2026 elections they are going to have to get Stephen Miller out of the White House.
Trump is wildly unpopular. His domestic agenda has failed. The Epstein scandal is eroding his authority. The Europeans humiliated him last week, and now the country, and his own Party, are recoiling at ICE's lawlessness.

Ds must be brave, ambitious now 👇

Everyone needs to be calling Congress today - they need to hear from us. Loud and proud!

Fifty-three years after Roe v. Wade, politicians are still trying to control the most personal medical decisions Americans make. That’s why Arizona voters said enough in 2024 and enshrined reproductive freedom in our constitution.

The message was clear: The government has no business in a doctor's office. I'll keep fighting to protect that freedom and keep politicians out of private medical decisions for women in Arizona and across the country.

ICE’s new policy directing agents to ignore the 4th Amendment is one of the most frightening things we’ve seen yet. And there’s no telling where it could end up. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
Breaking the Fourth Amendment
Last night, we learned from a report in the Associated Press that ICE, contrary to longstanding Fourth Amendment jurisprudence, is taking the position that it can enter people’s homes without a judici...

A majority of voters said Mr. Trump had focused on the wrong priorities and disapproved of his handling of top issues, but the president still enjoys strong support from Republicans.

That last part is because they are still watching Fox and Trump-controlled media.

Dr. King’s words are etched, not just in the souls of those who were there, but the minds and hearts of those who came after. So that we will never forget what true leadership looks like, nor accept that we deserve any less. And one thing I will NOT do — is stop dwelling on it. RIP Dr. King 🙏🏾❤️

ICE is arriving in Phoenix. Please protest peacefully and safely, but protest when you can.

They continue to act inhumanely, as bullies, and without due process. This is unacceptable.
It was 10 degrees when they did this.

The idea that we’re going to ruin our long standing alliances and waste billions of dollars to buy Greenland while our own people can’t afford health care or groceries is maybe the dumbest thing a president has done in the history of this country.

This is interesting, but it’s unclear to me how it will be enforced, unless state law enforcement is going to start arresting members of ICE.

It is, unfortunately, time to re-up my April 2025 post on the Insurrection Act and the broader history of domestic uses of the military for law enforcement purposes:

www.stevevladeck.com/p/142-five-q...
142. Five Questions About Domestic Use of the Military
The federal government's authorities to use the military for domestic law enforcement are old, broad, and vague. They may soon become far more relevant than they've been for quite a long time.

Food prices remain high, not down as the president said during a visit to Detroit.
BREAKING: Beef prices soared 16.4% in the past year, per the latest inflation report.

Americans are paying the price for Trump's disastrous policies.
