Literally the reason the President gets so much deference in foreign affairs is because he is the “sole voice” of the nation when it comes to representing the U.S. as a sovereign and negotiating on its behalf. (Also, so much for the “unitary” executive)
Host: You could call and get Abrego Garcia back.

Trump: I could

Host: But the Supreme Court has ordered you to facilitate his release.

Trump: I'm not the one making this decision

Host: You're the president!

In this press conference linked below, Governor Shapiro, who is Jewish, speaks about the attack happening during Passover.

Donald Trump just illegally fired two independent commissioners at the FTC who fight big corporations that abuse consumers and workers.

Why? Trump's billionaire donors expect a return on their investment. He works for them, not you.

The courts must reinstate the commissioners.

Schumer isn’t making any sense to me. If they’re already wreaking havoc on the government without the CR, then why vote for the CR that FUNDS them to continue the bloodbath?
HAYES: There's an unconstitutional assault on the government right now

SCHUMER: There is, absolutely

HAYES: But they say you're not fighting!

SCHUMER: They're already doing it without this CR

My latest: "Trump's State of Disunion"

Trump addresses the nation & Congress tonight as he dismantles our freedoms, attacks our allies, befriends Russia, & engages in a trade war that will increase prices. Don't you feel great again?
