It’s interesting that secret service told reporters the guy who stole Noem’s purse what a white male, then they wait a week and DHS says it was an undocumented migrant but refuses to give any other details.

I would like to point out that the executive branch claiming the power to mete out life/death sentences seems like a separation of powers issue as well
This is basically conceding that the executive branch is sentencing random people to death with no due process or ability to reverse an error
UPDATE: Trump seems to say for the first time that U.S. lacks ability to recover those sent to El Salvador if government deports someone erroneously. Says it’s totally up to Bukele. Seems to leave out that he could … ask Bukele to help fix an error. www.politico.com/news/2025/04...

This is a concession by the U.S. government that its “arrangement” with El Salvador is irrevocable. To me this has to be grounds to argue that the arrangement itself is unconstitutional under the Fifth and Eighth Amendments

It’s Hump Day, and Trump has a strange, disturbing message for women as he observes Women’s History Month: "I'm going to be known as the ‘fertilization president.’ That's not bad. I've been called much worse. Actually, I like it."

What you have to understand about Pete Hegseth copying and pasting war plans into Signal is that it almost certainly means he’s got classified documents on his personal UNSECURE devices. Signal isn't on a secure device...are our war plans on his personal devices? @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social
