I am very angry. Which is weird for me because I don't usually get angry. (Depressed is more my speed). But I am very angry at the cowards, the betrayers of our oath, the colleagues who joined my profession but now abandon any pretense of pursuing the ideals of the rule of law.

“I am a king and my will is law” isn’t a clever distraction from what he’s doing, it’s the central underlying justification for everything he’s doing.
Dear media:
Please do not waste time hyperventilating about this dumb comment.
It’s intended to be a distraction from all of the damaging actions he’s taking.
Focus on those.

The reason they wanted the Lakin Riley act so badly is because being undocumented is a civil offense and not an actual crime. They wanted even the ACCUSATION of shoplifting to make them "criminals." I am shocked how many liberals still don't understand immigration laws and are falling for MAGA lies.

Trump is openly violating the law on a vast and unprecedented scale and everyone is acting like it's normal. NPR had a long story about finding a rare shrew. NYT said he was disregarding "legal niceties." This is an attack on the Constitution as profound as the attempt to overturn the 2020 election.

I would caution people to stop relying on the Constitution as written to have any meaning other than what the people Trump put on the Supreme Court says it means.
"He can't do that" is not a useful response to the things he's going to do. The correct response is "Will the Court uphold that?"

Trump cannot abrogate birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment by way of executive order. That’s not how constitutional rights work.
