By declaring that only he and the AG can interpret laws, Trump is declaring himself a king.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

I got back to my office after the vote last night and recorded this. There's no way to sugarcoat what happened. And my fear is that Trump gets stronger, not weaker, because of this acquiescence. I'm angry - like you. But I choose to keep fighting.

We tried to show them after the last surrender. There's no sense in trying to convince them anymore. Primaries are the only path to a fighting opposition party now.

Time is up. I gave Speaker Mike Johnson two days to swear in Adelita Grijalva. Arizona's 7th congressional district 813,000 Arizonans are now being taxed without representation. I have lawyers downstairs right now drafting litigation.

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.

Any funding deal that continues GOP healthcare cuts or hands Trump a blank check must not pass. Democrats have real leverage in this fight, and the Republicans who control both chambers are the ones responsible for passing a bipartisan funding bill. Make sure your senators hear from you today.

🚨 Texas Democrats just made history.

James Talarico and his colleagues walked out to block a Trump-led power grab.

They didn’t just break quorum—they shattered the authoritarian playbook.
Trump ordered 5 new GOP seats.

Talarico said: Not on our watch.
