It’s amazing how much existing institutions and the people profiting from Trump’s presidency lean toward a trivialization and normalization of something that in any other context nearly everyone would treat with horror

Trump is now going after Jack Smith.
You know who seems safe from his retribution: Merrick Garland. Because he did JACK SHIT. Trump not being pissed at him is, low key, an indictment of his entire tenure.

If average HealthCare.gov plan premiums double in a few months due to Republican inaction, 4 million people will lose health insurance.
Without health coverage, many will get sicker or skip care entirely.
So much for “Make America Healthy Again.”

Trump doesn’t get to “determine” we’re at war—that’s Congress’s job. Check the Constitution, Art. 1, Sec 8, Clause 11.
And while he’s talking tough out of one side of his mouth, he’s disbanding the DOJ task force fighting cartels with the other.
This isn’t about public safety. It’s a power grab.

President Trump and Congressional Republicans just shut down the government because they refused to stop your health care costs from rising.
Let me be clear: Republicans are in charge of the White House, House, and Senate. This is their shutdown.

I still do not think this is going to happen. But in the unlikely scenario that it does, I am in complete agreement with Courtney here.
There is no measured way to say what I am about to say.
If the Supreme Court agrees with the Trump administration to end birthright citizenship, we must end this current Supreme Court.
I do not say this lightly.

We did not ask for this. It will not make us safer. And fueling this fascist president's agenda is dangerous for our entire country. (🧵)

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone.
Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care.

This “explicit” is a weird editorial choice. The constitution gives the president no power over this at all. It’s not ambiguous.

4. Always escalate the conflict
