It used to be a conspiracy theory: Trump will cancel the 2026 midterms. But the Texas remapping outrage is a plan to do exactly that, as extreme gerrymandering spreads to multiple states

Trump calls for deporting US citizens: "We also have a lot of bad people that have been here for a long time ... many of them were born in our country. I think we ought to get them the hell out of here too, if you want to know the truth. So maybe that'll be the next job."

I’m sick of the mainstream media using euphemisms and other weasel wording to soft-pedal the Trump regime’s corruption.
Rather than committing crimes, Trump “sidesteps laws.”
Rather than lying, he’s “untethered to truth” or “inverting the facts.”

Trump just floated deporting people who were born in the U.S. — saying many criminals "were born in our country. I think we ought to get them the hell out of here, too, you want to know the truth, so maybe that'll be the next job that we'll work on together."

Yes, rural Trump voters will now have to drive three states to get to a hospital but think of all the slurs they can say freely on that road trip now.

If deported, she could face arrest over her opposition to the war in Ukraine.

Trump is still pushing the complete lie that Abrego Garcia has “MS-13” tattooed on his knuckles. In a sane country we’d be talking about impeachment and removal.

This is right. The fact that they’re doing this to “innocent people” is not irrelevant, but it’s ultimately not the point. People convicted of crimes have rights too. And you can be damn sure that if they want to convict them - or me, or you - of something, they will.
I know this sounds like pedantic scolding but I really do believe that doubling down on the idea that criminal records are a meaningful distinction is like carefully digging a pit that we can be shoved into.

Kidnapping.

Capturing a person against their will without due process is called kidnapping.

Transporting them to another country without due process is called human trafficking.

A squalid extrajudicial prison for people found guilty of no crime is called a concentration camp.
stop calling things deportation just because they call it deportation.

-You cannot legally deport people without due process.

-You cannot legally deport citizens.

-They are defining down deportation to break the law.

Again, impeachable actions by the minute.

For example, the President of the United States bragging that he is extorting law firms.
Trump: "Have you noticed that lots of law firms have been signing up with Trump? $100 million. Another $100 million for -- ah -- damages that they've done ... they give me a lot of money considering they've done nothing wrong."
