What are the limits to Trump's "official act immunity?"
Unilaterally dismantling a treaty the Senate ratified?
Ignoring congressional spending directives?
Destroying an agency created by an act of Congress?
Ignoring federal court orders?
Did Roberts think this through at all last year?

Oh man...
Democratic House Rep. Sylvester Turner from Texas died last night at age 70.
His last words to his constituents were "don’t mess with Medicaid.”
RIP.

Rieckhoff: And what I would tell folks is: if they treat veterans like this, if they treat retired generals like this, how do you think they're going to treat everyone else? How do you think they're going to treat you? We are just first.

BREAKING NEWS: Canadian Premier Wab Kinew of Manitoba MOCKS Trump by signing a “beautiful” order that officially removes ALL American liquor from Canadian stores in his province.
Donald Trump just caused massive economic damage to our country. How sad and embarrassing.

COLBERT, on Rep. Al Green’s removal:
“Some people questioned why so much muscle was needed to remove an old man with a cane. But it turns out it was for a serious reason. When security searched him, they found that he smuggled in a spine."

In Oversight today, my colleagues stuck to their usual script: blaming immigrants for all crime & claiming Dem mayors are too soft. Well, I was curious to know if they’ve ever had an immigrant with a criminal record that they could recall. Tune in!

DOGE “seemed unsure” of what USAID programs they cut and is now attempting to reverse some of the cuts, says @propublica.org reporter Brett Murphy. “This is the opposite of a careful review."

Green: I will suffer whatever the consequences are because I don't believe in the richest country in the world people should be without good health care. I stood up for my constituents then. I'm standing up for them now. I would do it again.

I just watched Macron's address to France.
It was urgent, impassioned and determined—and established Russia as a clear and present danger to Europe America can no longer be relied upon to help with.
Europeans are preparing for a possible imminent darkness. My heart breaks that we aren't with them.

“Those nasty Canadians are ripping us off and are controlled by Mexican cartels. They’re poisoning us with fentanyl and need to become the 51st state or they will pay a high price” is a belief that literally ZERO Americans had six weeks ago. It’s entirely invented from scratch.

The same Republicans who have refused to do anything about school shootings, let hungry kids starve, rolled back child labor laws & defunded childhood cancer research are now using a single young boy as prop.
If they truly cared about him they wouldn’t be gutting the programs designed to help him.
