This is the interview Donald Trump didn’t want you to see.

His FCC refused to air my interview with Stephen Colbert.

Trump is worried we’re about to flip Texas.

"The American public is increasingly alarmed about the dangers of Trump and Trumpism. But the elites are slower...Their behavior brings to mind the alleged remark by Alexandre Ledru-Rollin in 1848: 'There go the people. I must follow them, for I am their leader.'”

In fairness, Gonzales appears to be an idiot and he probably doesn't even know what point he's getting at.

If you hear someone saying that they hope lawyers are ready to go to court to protect free and fair elections, I suggest you let them know that my law firm is already litigating more than 80 voting and election cases in 40 states.

This:
The political party that won a very close presidential race and controls both houses of Congress by small margins says the party out of power cheats on elections.
Makes no sense.
If the party out of power cheated, it wouldn't be out of power.
Fact is, the party in power wants to end fair elections.

The books are being written right now by all the journalists you see everyday on msm, the pundits they interview, and probably by the fuckers in the administration, themselves .
that the president is a rapidly decaying lunatic is the worst kept secret in the world right now

when It Happens, we are going to get countless accounts about how bad it was and how everyone knew and it's absolute malpractice that the same media that went full court press on Biden Old ignores it
"A key European ally of Trump said he was 'traumatized' by a meeting where the president’s 'psychological state' came across as 'dangerous.’ Robert Fico, the populist prime minister of Slovakia … characterized Trump as being 'out of his mind,' per a diplomat."

I would like to know how my prior colleagues, who have chosen to pursue leadership positions under this charlatan, justify ordering agents to break their oaths of office and open investigations on people simply for exercising their legal rights.

Good luck gazing in the mirror when this is all over.

Yes, but Trump knows if Stephen Miller goes then the White House falls apart. He's the most powerful unelected man in the world and is essentially the head of DHS and DOJ.
if bovino is out and conservatives are turning on noem then there is a real opportunity to demand that miller resign too.

Literally, Lisa Murkowski & Thom Tillis & Mike Johnson & John Thune & Susan Collins & Brian Fitzpatrick & David Valadao & company should not be able to enter the Capitol or appear in the media without being bombarded with questions about why they aren't fulfilling their oaths right now. Focus.
As a constituent of Fitzpatrick, I'm calling his office (in vain) and regularly reminding him that as a lawyer and former FBI agent, he knows better.

Some perspective: The S&P opened down -1.3% on Trump's Greenland saber-rattling. That's $750 billion of wealth destroyed -- roughly equal to estimates of the value of Greenland.

And so ~in dollar terms~ his shenanigans have already cost the US one Greenland, and we've got nothing to show for it.

Even if you give some of them the benefit of the doubt, they have been so woefully timid in calling out Trump’s corruption and daily flings with sheer madness, how can you possibly expect them to lead the charge against him and the oligarchs?

For those saying “oh but the cabinet are all sycophants.” Yes. We know.

It’s called PRESSURE. You pressure the system until something gives. Micro cracks in the wall until some bricks start to come loose.
The 25th Amendment must be invoked by the cabinet. I’m all for pressuring them. Congressional Dems should lead the charge. Not on Bluesky or Threads. Let’s do it.
Invoke the 25th Amendment.

Dems need to stop nattering about "reforming ICE" or "alternative immigration enforcement" and just reopen Ellis Island. Immigration is America. Diversity is strength. Social Security needs tax income. (+ An inclusive pantry = better food.)
