President Trump is building a “shadow budget” outside of Congressional control. @scott-levy.bsky.social explains why it is unlawful and how Congress should respond:

Unless Congress reasserts control over federal spending, the balance the framers designed could collapse into a self-financing presidency.

This is just fucking outrageous. Why don’t they just pass a spending bill that explicitly funds a shit ton of money to individual senators by name. It would be no different.
This allows Trump (via DOJ) to use taxpayer money to bribe eight GOP Senators. It's that simple, there's no other way to describe it.

And where's the compensation for people injured by the Trump admin's unlawful conduct through DHS & DOGE?

Take a bow, @schumer.senate.gov, you did this.

The Republican Senate majority is built on minority rule, enabled by unequal representation & the two-party system.

The GOP hasn’t won more total votes or represented more people than Dems since the 1990s. They’ve won the Senate in 7 of 13 elections since 2000 anyway

supreme court poised to side with "No We Shouldn't" in landmark case "We Should Shoot The Economy In The Head For No Reason v. No We Shouldn't"
Gorsuch finally speaks, and oh yeah, he's against Trump. Alito also sounded skeptical, which is surprising to me. Regardless, there will plainly be a lopsided majority to strike down the tariffs.

The government better start working on its Plan B...

Dem messaging in 2020: We should ask people making over 500 million per year to pay an extra dollar in tax for every additional million.

In 2028: Billionaires. Im gonna tax the motherfuckers out of existence.

This is a crucial point. A system where 33% of the vote can lead to 100% of the power is fundamentally broken. We've seen in Scotland how proportional systems can work – we desperately need PR for the whole UK to ensure Parliament actually reflects how people voted.

I think any story about Trump's autocracy should be mostly about the people and institutions who failed to stop it. This guy isn't a political genius, everything else just happens to be rotten. 'Toddler Consolidates Power In Household' is a story about incompetent parents, not shrewd maneuvering

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

“What appeared to be”? Is there some question about whether that was actual footage?
President Trump posted what appeared to be an A.I.-generated video on social media showing him wearing a crown and flying a jet labeled “King Trump” that dumps brown liquid on protesters. He shared the video on Saturday, the same day that protesters participated in mass “No Kings” demonstrations.

Every Sunday show needs to ask their guests* to comment on this. And when they say they haven’t seen it, then “fine. We will watch it on a loop for the remainder of your interview until you’re ready to comment.”
