The Abrego García case is not about one man. By denying the constitutional rights of one man, the Trump regime is threatening the constitutional rights of every man, woman, and child in America.

James Comer can’t even write a brief letter without filling it with outright lies. What trash.
If you were wondering “who would be stupid enough to fall for Bukele’s dumb little stunt?” well, it’s no surprise the answer is Rep. Jim Comer.

If the IRS deprives Harvard of its tax-exempt status, that's very bad for Harvard but it's also a catastrophe for the IRS. Instead of a neutral agency that enforces tax law, it will become a tool of partisan warfare. It may never recover.

I’m not a young man. I began my life in the Eisenhower administration, and became politically aware under JFK. Lived through Nixon. Today was the most sickening display by an American President in my lifetime. Indescribably embarrassing for our nation.

I’m feeling really confident about Trump’s choices so far: a heroin addict with a brain worm and a ketamine-drugged billionaire. What could possibly go wrong?
Elon Musk’s drug of choice is ketamine. While Musk claims it is prescribed by a physician, ketamine is widely known for its illicit use as a recreational drug.
Ketamine and opioids do share the same brain pathways. Ketamine and the opioid system interact.

It was the Cabinet of Warren G. Harding and, hoo boy, did that not turn out well.
