Trump spent the entire campaign saying that tariffs are the “most beautiful” thing ever.

Why doesn’t he want Amazon to show them off?
REPORTER: Amazon will soon display a number next to the price of each product that shows how much the Trump tariffs are adding. Isn't that a perfect demonstration that it's the American consumer who is paying for these policies?

LEAVITT: This is a hostile and political act by Amazon.

BREAKING: Police just surrounded Rev. William Barber, prominent activist and pastor, as he and others prayed in the U.S. Capitol Rontunda.

Police then expelled everyone (including press!) from the Rotunda to (presumably) arrest them.

I've covered protests here a lot. Never seen anything like it.

Sen. Chris Van Hollen: “I applaud Harvard's decision not to give in to bullying from the Trump administration.”

He added that, in many cases, what students are doing is protesting the actions of the US & Israeli governments with respect to Gaza—not seeking to undermine US foreign policy.
Van Hollen: "I applaud Harvard's decision not to give in to bullying from the Trump administration. Trump believes in 1st Amendment rights for himself, but apparently for nobody else ... the whole purpose of 1A is you don't have the government dictating speech as the administration is trying to do."

Vance’s favorite demagogic tactic, which he brings to every argument, is to reshape his opponent’s position in an absurdly extreme and preposterous way so he gets to argue with a fictitious person who doesn’t exist. It would take one phone call from Trump - everyone knows that.

This is what judges should be doing right now.

If the Trump administration is going to insist that it can’t bring back anyone once they’re removed, then federal judges should put the brakes on any and all removals until the *full* legal process—to ensure the removals are valid—has run its course.
Last night, US Judge Sweeney in Colo granted district-wide (state-wide) class habeas TRO to stop Trump from summarily removing aliens under his Alien Enemies Act proclamation. @ACLU attys had warned that, despite SCOTUS ruling, Admin won't commit to providing even 24 hrs notice.

This is NUTS. In this country, we do not let our leaders sign secret agreements with foreign dictators to deport people without oversight or transparency. That is illegal.

We are now at the point where the AP can write this as if its a simple background fact and it sparks no outrage: "Trump has made no secret of his plans to use the power of the federal government to target domestic political adversaries."

Donald Trump knows that he owns these cowardly law firms. Here are a few recommendations:

Paul Weiss can litigate to bring children back in the mines.
Milbank can challenge clean air rules.
Willkie Farr can lead on spoiling the water.
Skadden is perfect to break the unions.

Shameful all.
Trump announced that as part of tens of millions of dollars of pro bono services law firms will be providing to him as a result of his shakedowns, law firms will work with coal companies on "leasing and other things"

The administration’s key demand is not just that they can send anyone they like to a foreign labor camp, it’s that you will accept without question their assertion that the people they choose are dangerous menaces who deserve it. They want your unquestioning obedience.
