Targeting the free press is nothing new for this administration or for Trumpism but this feels like an elevation of hostiles

If you receive an illegal order, you have a duty to disobey.
This isn’t controversial.
A President calling for the execution of anyone who reminds service members of this oath is showing us why the duty to disobey illegal orders is so important in the first place.

Remember when Biden bungled a comment and it sounded like he called all MAGA garbage, quickly corrected and it was still a 3 day news story?

Luttig has it right here: “[T]he Supreme Court has given them no choice but to speak out.”
More judges speak to the press (the NYT) about what a disaster the Supreme Court (specifically the shadow docket) has been - “incredibly demoralizing & troubling”; a “judicial crisis”; a “slap in the face to district courts.” www.nytimes.com/2025/10/11/u...

America First. Really?
Trump says we have to throw 15 million Americans off healthcare and significantly raise ACA premiums because we don’t have enough money.
But somehow we have $20 billion to bailout the right-wing regime of Argentina?
We can’t let that happen.

The U.S. is in talks to provide Argentina with a $20 billion swap line to help contain financial upheaval and support President Javier Milei’s free-market overhaul, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said.
Bessent Says U.S. Talking With Argentina About $20 Billion in Aid

Brian Kilmeade just casually thinks murdering people is a solution. Not healthcare, not housing, not services, death. This isn’t news commentary, it’s stochastic terrorism.

The President of the United States is accusing an unnamed government official of deliberately falsifying official reports on crime.
That's a pretty big accusation! Certainly a scandal, maybe even a crime.
Anyone want to press him to provide some, you know, proof?

Trump on DC: "Sadly, what I guess the mayor did, but whoever it was, they asked the numbers to be fudged so they would show less crime. The fact is, it's worse than it has ever been."

Very normal for a teen girl to make her 50+ year old father promise not to date any teens younger than her.
Trump: I have a deal with her. She’s 17 and doing great ― Ivanka. She made me promise, swear to her that I would never date a girl younger than her. So as she grows older, the field is getting very limited.
Stern: So you can’t date 16 year olds!
Trump: [Laughs] 🤮

However, wielding this martial law nightmare is Donald Trump’s dream
