Trump is demanding that DOGE investigate polls after his favorability numbers tanked so badly that even Fox News couldn’t spin them to look good. He’s calling it all “fraud.” Seems like a very “efficient” use of tax dollars.

Paramount appears to have CAVED to Trump. This is Russia/Putin stuff...happening right here at home. When I was growing up, Russia was the enemy. It still is. Yet...Trump is mirroring the enemy.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name.
It is blatantly unconstitutional.

A fifth law firm capitulated today and agreed to become a Trump collaborator. Shameful.

Marth Stewart went to prison for insider trading on *one* stock.
Marjorie Taylor Greene bought *17* stocks just before Donald Trump declared his "pause" in tariffs that caused those stocks to rise in value.
How many others were tipped off? How many stocks did Donald buy? Ivanka? Mike Johnson?

I would say more broadly that as policy you really shouldn’t allow government officials to accuse people of *terrorism* anonymously.

Hard to believe the hill the Justice Department wants to die on, we don’t want to comply with your order so we aren’t going to. Nothing like engaging in explicitly lawless behavior they don’t even pretend to regret.

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

It's simple. Everyone in the US enjoys the protections of the Constitution - even visitors. So if someone commits a crime here, you give them due process here. You charge them here, try them here, and sentence them here. You don't deport them to an offshore torture prison.
