Yesterday I argued in the Supreme Court to defend a 50 year old law that prevent corruption in our campaign finance system. Meanwhile, Republicans are attacking the 60 year old Voting Rights Act in SCOTUS as well. We won't let them gut democracy without a fight.

can he not be enjoined from destroying the WH????
Of course he's not following the rules, but it's dangerous to get to resigned to and cynical about it
Three former members of the National Capital Planning Commision "told The Washington Post that a review of any exterior construction project at the White House is required by federal law." Reviews of smaller projects at the White House have taken years in the past.

“This is exactly the moment for people to stand up. And do I see enough people doing it? No, I don’t. It shouldn’t be that there are Democrats that are afraid, because you know what? We’re the targets. We need to be strong, we need to fight back.”

Thank you, @govpritzker.illinois.gov!

TERRORISM EXPERT HERE:
He cannot designate an idea as a terrorist group.

There is no org called ANTIFA. There is no leadership or funding path or no membership. Also there is no terrorism law in America. Ask Luigi.

He wants to call anyone a terrorist. That’s Fascism.

Don't fly Avelo.
Avelo Airlines are the first commercial airline in the US to sign a deportation charter contract with ICE. IOW, Avelo profits from tearing families apart!

So let’s ground Avelo. Learn more: groundavelo.org

The "Big Beautiful Bill" is not something that is going to help the average citizen. In fact, it's not a bill. It's a very large invoice. What a sham!

This is babaric.
Just to underscore--the president is attending the opening of an immigrant tent city that was purposely built (in one week) on an abandoned airfield in the middle of the Florida Everglades because it's surrounded by alligators and pythons to deter people from fleeing, or kill them if they do.
Uhh...last week NYT reported construction on "Alligator Alcatraz" would start today. Now NBC News reports it's *opening* tomorrow with Trump likely in attendance "set up quickly — in roughly one week — by the DeSantis administration."

Nailed it
On Tuesday, President Trump erupted at Israel and Iran for violating a ceasefire he’d announced on Truth Social, fuming that they “don’t know what the fuck they’re doing.”

Well, Trump has no bleeping idea what the bleep he’s doing.

Once a foreign government can openly give the president a half-billion-dollar plane as a personal gift, there’s no red line left between a democracy and a full-blown kleptocracy. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/corruption...
