I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you.

The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.

Rep. Steven Horsford to Greer: "So the trade representative hasn't spoken to the POTUS about a global reordering of trade, but yet he announced it on a tweet? WTF! Who is in charge?

Don’t forget slapping enormous tariffs on the Canadian lumber we primarily use to build houses.
If MAGA really wanted more high-wage jobs where people work with their hands, they would be trying to boost construction work. But instead they’re crashing housing production and trying to protect high resource areas from upzoning.
