Morning, friends.

📌I joined Rick Wilson, Barbara McQuade and Timothy Ryback to weigh in on the terrible things that have already happened, and what might be coming next from the odious Trump regime in this piece by the estimable Chauncey DeVega in Salon …

Dread and defiance.

I second this and am embarrassed that we're such shit neighbors.

I pledge to work to Make America Normal Again, too!

Dear Canada-
Please accept our deepest apologies from all decent Americans embarrassed by the obnoxious trolling from our man-baby-in-chief who is lacking in both intelligence & any impulse-control whatsoever.

@legalafmtn.bsky.social can u actually do this? Change the charge AFTER a verdict?
What impunity looks like: "Assistant U.S. Attorneys Eli A. Alcaraz, Brian R. Faerstein and section chief Cassie Palmer resigned from the office over a 'post-trial' plea agreement [offered to] an L.A. County sheriff’s deputy who was *convicted of a felony* for assaulting and pepper-spraying a woman"
NEW: Sources says several federal prosecutors have resigned after Trump's new U.S. Atty in Los Angeles offered a misdemeanor plea deal to a sheriff's deputy -- after a jury had already convicted him of a felony: www.latimes.com/california/s...

The cruelty just keeps coming
First they deported her father

Next it was her mother

But the Trump administration is keeping this 2 year old child in detention

“We are not delinquents. We have shown this..I just ask the US government that they give me back my child..It’s the only thing I ask as a mother”

Absolutely deplorable

Mexican President Sheinbaum confirms that Trump has phoned her to secretly pressure her to allow US troops to enter the country.

The president said no to Trump and told him "Mexico's sovereignty is inviolable and it's not for sale."..."We will never accept a US military presence in our territory."

So what are we supposed to do. No one will enforce it so it makes it moot.
The Constitution is built on checks and balances, and it’s unacceptable for the president to defy court orders simply because he doesn’t like them.

Under the Constitution, presidents can’t simply defy court orders they don’t like.

1. It’s the weekend, and if you’re like me, you’re tired. Not only is there an endless stream of chaos and dysfunction coming out of the White House, most of it is illegal, illiberal, destructive and immoral.
