Opinion | Gang members should be jailed regardless of whether they broke any laws. It's what you get for joining a group that threatens violence. Everyone in my militia agrees with this.

Whether it's Bill Clinton letting a campaign donor spend the night in the Lincoln Bedroom or Donald Trump letting Elon Musk access the military's top-secret plan for how it would navigate a war with China—whose government Musk is entangled with—both sides have furnished gifts on their benefactors.

This Paul Weiss capitulation is the most disgraceful action by a major law firm in my lifetime, so appalling that I couldn’t believe it at first.

Any lawyers at that firm—partners or associates—who don’t promptly resign will defile their moral and professional reputations beyond repair.

State Dept removes coverage of the majority of humans from its human rights reporting.
The annual State Department human rights report “will remove all sections covering the rights of women, LGBTQ+ people, and the disabled as well as sections dedicated to discrimination against indigenous people and corruption in government.”

if there is still any semblance of a serious national security apparatus, what Musk will be told about the TopSecret US plan for war with China will be very somber & serious & convincing sounding and will be exactly equivalent to telling a guy at a bar these ten random digits are your phone number

A Republican politician in New Mexico was convicted of orchestrating four drive-by shootings of Democratic officials. So why does it feel like it was a Democrat who orchestrated four drive-by shootings of Republicans?

Donald Trump ended my Social Security payments, gave my grandkids measles, and crashed the plane I was supposed to take home from Florida. But at least I know those kids at Oberlin won't be asking for trigger warnings anymore.

The fact that the world’s richest man works at the behest of the executive and can buy out the legislature is massively outside the scope of what the framers could have imagined

there’s is simply no constitutional measure that can guard against something like this

This is wild. Trump says he’s withdrawing his executive order targeting the Paul Weiss law firm because they acknowledged “wrongdoing.”

They’re also going to provide “$40 million in pro bono legal services over the course of President Trump's term to support the Administration's initiatives”

Sanders: Our life expectancy is about four years less than in other wealthy countries.

If you’re working class in America, you live 7-8 years shorter than people who are wealthy. Now, why is that?

The answer is not just healthcare. But it is the day-to-day stress that working people live under.

If the constitution is still in operation, Trump's executive order abolishing the Department of Education is just a suggestion.

It's clear that the Trump administration denied due process to the migrants it banished to El Salvador *precisely because* any measure of judicial oversight would've proved their innocence immediately.
