So let me get this straight. Donald Trump had no actual plan to build a ballroom when he tore down the East Wing and now no one knows when or how it’s going to be finished? Why does anyone let this man touch anything?

Will be on MSNBC talking about this wretched case at 3 p.m.
I assume Amit Agarwal was chosen to defend independent agencies at the Supreme Court today because he's a former Alito and Kavanaugh clerk with a conservative pedigree. But he is doing a very poor job, and I think a progressive advocate with subject matter expertise would've been far more effective.

Trump just confirmed he'll sign an executive order banning states from regulating AI.

It's a huge victory for Big Tech, which has spent millions lobbying to stop guardrails against AI. https://youtu.be/imtkNL4v2ks?si=lA7bwZgq-9DYkij5

Maybe it's not a good idea to allow the billionaire Trump-supporting Ellison family at Paramount that just took over CBS News to also take over Warner Brothers, the company that owns CNN. There will be no free press in America if the president and his allies control all the major media outlets.l

Donald Trump isn't interested in wielding his antitrust authority to protect the American people and preserve competition in our economy — he's using it to reward his allies.

It's all out on the open.
This is just how we do mergers now.

"Paramount executives also plan to argue their deal will have a much shorter regulatory approval process given the company’s smaller size and friendly relationship with the Trump administration."

Civil rights groups are preparing to take the fight against Texas’ sweeping voter suppression law to SCOTUS. But if the justices hear the case, the court’s conservative majority could issue a ruling that makes it even harder to challenge anti-voting laws.
