Trump wants to be the American version of China's Xi. He wants to be a dictator. He's acting that way right now and daring us to stop him.
Trump: "In China, you know how long it takes? One day. It's called President Xi. 'Boom. It's okay.' Over here we're gonna have almost the same thing. We're getting fast approvals."

The Senate Republicans’ tax plan would add nearly $3.3 trillion to the federal deficit over the next decade. It was never about “saving money”.

If you are kidnapping your citizens with no due process to take away their freedom and trying to silence media, law firms, and universities for exercising free speech, you don't get to call yourself "Leader of the Free World."

Can a producer for @lauracoates.com @cnn.com @cnn-news.bsky.social get in touch with me ASAP? Your guests are factually wrong on the law in California and this is dangerous. Press exempt from arrest per CA Penal Code 409.7. I negotiated language of the law. You need to correct this ASAP.

If ABC News is going to capitulate to fascists by suspending a senior reporter for reporting the FACT that Stephen Miller is a bile-filled “world-class hater,” then I guess it’s up to us.

The federal government is taking over the California National Guard and deploying 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles — not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle.
Don't give them one.
