Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

Partly because of Musk’s intervention, yesterday’s election was to a considerable degree a referendum on the Trump administration. And the results suggest that Democrats shouldn’t be intimidated by Trump.

He’s probably feeling sorry for himself. I guarantee you he hasn’t felt anything about his DOGE disaster of a ‘unit’ and all of whom will suffer from their actions. He and this administration are beyond despicable and will cost lives, livelihoods, and so much more.
