Fun fact about Trump tariffs you won’t see in 99% of the reporting:
Trump tariffs are illegal.
Congress controls tariffs just like tax rates.
President can change a tariff only for national security emergency, meaning war.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

They are calling this ‘Phase 1’.”

You should ask yourself why the GOP wants to impeach judges who rule against them but not Clarence Thomas, who failed to report millions of dollars in bribes, erm, “gifts” on his financial disclosures.

This former US Atty supports the courage of Danielle Sassoon, the acting US Atty in SDNY, who put service ahead of self & refused to let politics interfere with prosecutions. True American hero. Thank you for your service, Danielle. You are the best of us. Who's with me?
Incredibly proud of her and my old office. Integrity and decency still exist in incredibly hard circumstances. I hope every former US Attorney and DOJ official from both parties support her publicly.
Danielle R. Sassoon, Manhattan’s acting U.S. attorney, resigned on Thursday rather than obey a Justice Department order that she drop a corruption case against New York City’s mayor, Eric Adams, that she had championed, according to three people with knowledge of the matter.
