This is your regular reminder that executive orders are not royal decrees. Because America has no king.

This is a good move by @govpritzker.illinois.gov. More states should do this to send a message to Pres. Bukele that there is a price to pay for complicity in Trump’s unconstitutional abduction of Abrego Garcia. And American tourists should go elsewhere until he is given due process.
The US Constitution guarantees due process.
Donald Trump is eroding it in real time – we must fight back to restore the balance of power.
Today, I’m announcing a series of measures against El Salvador for aiding his unconstitutional deportation scheme.

Yes, the stock market may be tanking and our national security apparatus has never been more vulnerable and we're on the verge of both economic collapse and war, but it was all worth it to keep pronouns out of email signatures.

Kristi Noem billed South Dakota taxpayers more than $640,000 in personal travel-related costs, including a six-day trip to Paris, a bear hunt in Canada, a trip to Houston for dental work to fix her smile, and a book tour. But she can afford a $50,000 Rolex for a prison porn photo op in El Salvador.
Kristi Noem refused to say who financed some of her travel. It was taxpayers who were on the hook
An Associated Press analysis of recently released travel records found more than $150,000 in expenses tied to Noem’s political and personal activity.

The top 7 donors in the 2024 election — all GOP — gave a combined $1B to buy Trump a second term.
It's a gigantic amount of money in total — but it's just pocket change to them.
We must get Big Money out of politics.
No one from either party should be able to buy an election.

Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

Elon Musk got $38 BILLION from the US Government.
That's the equivalent to $112 for every adult & child in the United States.
The USDA has a budget of $500 for emergency food relief.
That's less than $2 for every American.
But, sure, we can afford Musk's toys but not to keep Americans alive.
