And here I was, thinking it was just known as “breaking the law.”

You’re telling me there’s a *strategy* here? Golly, I’m such a rube.
By proceeding with the demolition of the White House East Wing before seeking approval from federal agencies for a new ballroom, President Donald Trump forced the issue. It's a strategy known as "stake-driving."

The Trump administration is cutting millions of dollars from breast cancer research, and the news isn’t giving this growing crisis enough attention. This October, join us to raise awareness by talking to your friends and family about what's really going on. Take the pledge. app.sosha.ai/s/v80kwcJ6

Trump is pledging full support to Texas after its deadly floods – and rightfully so.

But California has yet to receive $40 billion in aid to rebuild from January’s devastating wildfires.

A president is supposed to govern for all Americans – not just those who voted for him.

The U.S. Constitution has many flaws, but some of our biggest problems aren't in the Constitution. It doesn't have a filibuster. It forbids default on the debt. It authorizes the Voting Rights Act. It bars insurrectionists from office. It makes no one immune from the law.
