The terrible CR Budget bill — written by right-wing House Republicans with no input from anybody but themselves — was passed tonight with the support of 10 Democrats.
 
An absolute failure of Democratic leadership. NOBODY in the Senate should have voted for this dangerous bill.

Holy crap. The DOJ is arguing that the President can unilaterally deport anyone he wants without ANY statutory authority, just on his inherent authority as President over national security.

That is a terrifying claim to make and not one that has ever been recognized before in US history.

The FBI is trying to criminalize Habitat for Humanity for receiving climate grants from the EPA.

Yes, the nonprofit that builds houses for low-income people.

This clearly demonstrates just how absurd and extreme the Trump regime has become.
It's targeted harassment.

The Trump regime is reportedly planning to gut a unit within the DOJ that prosecutes corruption by elected officials.

This comes after Trump's DOJ dropped bribery charges against Eric Adams and suspended enforcement of a foreign anti-bribery law.

"Drain the swamp."

I’m so tired of hearing Rubio & other rightwingers now claiming that if you’re on a green card you’re a ‘guest’ in this country. BS. You’re a lawful permanent resident. The clue is in the name. If someone is a permanent resident in your home, are they the same as the guests who come and go? Come on.
