So when grand juries indict Trump, that is Biden “weaponizing the justice system” despite the fact that he said nothing about it. When Trump demands an indictment & appoints his personal lawyer to get it after his first MAGA appointee refused, that is “how our system works.” bsky.app/profile/atru...
TAPPER: As a constitutional attorney & Speaker, do you think it's acceptable for any POTUS to publicly instruct their AG to prosecute their political opponent and go as far as firing a US attorney if they don't bring charges?
JOHNSON: A grand jury voted to indict Comey. That's how our system works

Trump's approval ratings are tanking. He's flailing on the economy. He hasn't done squat to help working people. The Epstein scandal haunts him.
Remember that every authoritarian action Trump is taking must be understood against the backdrop of his declining popularity.

What’s more astonishing: 1) that the president clearly believes, and repeatedly suggests, that asylum seekers are people from mental asylums, or 2) that no journalist has ever challenged him on this and no mainstream media outlets have done any deep dives on this story?

Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down.
The FBI and Justice officials closed the investigation, which a Justice Department appointee had called a “deep state” probe in early 2025.

If a Democratic president cut off one of the red states dependent on federal funding, it would be a political scandal.
But cutting off California -- the single biggest "donor state" in the nation, one that sends in to the fed'l gov't ~$80 billion more than it gets back -- is straight-up theft.
