Donald Trump is clearly willing to do whatever it takes to stay in power, regardless of what the Constitution says. He “has always told us exactly who he is,” J. Michael Luttig argues. “We have just not wanted to believe him. But we must believe him now.”
President for Life
Donald Trump is trying to amass the powers of a king.

To refuse an illegal order is drummed into you, starting with your first ethics lesson. I'm proud of our prior service members for stating it.
Just remember how hard it is for our junior enlisted and officers if their superiors aren't as ethical.

The dead men there,
Winners or losers,
Did not care.

Eight Senators in your caucus have so little respect for you that they went around you and negotiated directly with the GOP. We have lost confidence in your ability to lead. Step down now.

The plaque honoring the law enforcement officers who responded to the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, which was commissioned by Congress in 2022, remains in storage. Mike Johnson has refused to place it on the wall, as was intended. That "deed" speaks pretty loudly.
Mike Johnson: "We've always stood with Capitol police and law enforcement. We've shown that in word and deed."

With a compliant Congress ready to do Trump’s bidding, American taxpayers will soon have to open their wallets to send billions more in welfare payments to farmers for markets they lost through his unwinnable trade war.
This is on top of Trump's tariff taxes costing families $2,400 more a year.

Trump making plans to send billions in cash bailouts to farmers with taxpayer money
The president has also said he wants to use direct tariff revenue for the payments, but that could trigger a major fight in Congress.

US farmers are saying they "just need temporary help, until things get better."
Here's the thing. US farm exports- which are mostly soy- CANNOT get better.
Other countries expanded their soy industries to fill China's demand.
We've walled ourselves out of the global market, folks. This is it.
