When we learned last year that Bessent got in a shoving match with Elon Musk in the White House, I'm sure some people said "Huh, maybe he's an okay guy" but in actuality Bessent is a smug asshole, and he just happened to get in a fight with another smug asshole
Bessent: "I'd encourage Carney to do what he thinks is best for Canadians, not his own virtue signaling. We do have a USMCA negotiation coming up. He rose to power on an anti-American, anti-Trump message. That's not a great place to be when you're negotiating w/ an economy multiples larger than you"

Senator Paul has done a very effective job just today of critiquing this administration’s lawless use of force both abroad and at home.
RAND PAUL: If a country bombed our air defense missiles, captured & removed our president, & blockaded our country, would that be considered an act of war?
RUBIO: We just don't believe this operation comes anywhere close to the constitutional definition
PAUL: Of course it would be an act of war!

"The Federal Government may neither issue directives requiring the States to address particular problems, nor command the States' officers, or those of their political subdivisions, to administer or enforce a federal regulatory program."
In Printz v. United States, #SCOTUS held that the Constitution bars the federal government from forcing or otherwise compelling local or state governments to enforce federal law.
The liberal squish who wrote the majority opinion in that case? Justice Antonin Scalia:

An incredible special election result in St. Paul, MN. Despite ICE’s reign of terror and frigid weather, Dems showed up while GOP support utterly collapsed.
Special election turnout is often low, but I have to wonder how much of this was GOP voters flipping or sitting it out in protest of Trump/ICE

LOL. Despite this being a Harris+71 seat, Democrat Meg Luger-Nikolai won tonight by a *91-point* margin. Easily one of the wildest overperformances we’ve ever seen, given the district’s deep, deep blue lean.
Couple of special elections in very blue districts in the Twin Cities area tonight, though only one is contested. It's a +71 Harris seat, so hard for Democrats to overperform when the margins are already so lopsided, but we'll see.

We can assume Trumpers' "investigation" of Petti's execution will be a sham, as @lizdye.bsky.social explains. Therefore, it will fall to Minnesota authorities - who are not duped by Trump's belated promise of a fair federal inquiry - to provide justice in the Petti, and the Good, cases. 1/

It is vitally important that Democrats (and the media) frame this properly. If the government gets shutdown it is because the GOP insists on DHS, ICE and CBP continuing to occupy American cities and trample the rights of US citizens.
EISEN: Don't you think Democrats are tapping into something in the mood of the country when it comes to the funding of ICE?
BESSENT: President Trump has brought down the temperature on the situation. He is urging them not to shut down the government.
