“Habeas corpus is the legal principle that requires the government to provide a public reason for detaining and imprisoning people. If not for that protection, the government could simply arrest people, including American citizens, and hold them indefinitely for no reason.”
Does Kristi Noem even know what habeas corpus is?
The Homeland Security secretary's word salad raised even more questions about the administration's assault on fundamental rights.

How much you wanna bet that soon we’ll find out it’ll cost $100 billion or some such amount to fix everything he broke?
Elon Musk said he’d cut the federal budget by $2 trillion
Quickly lowered this to $1 trillion
Now he’s down to $150 billion
And even THAT appears to be an overestimate of $92 billion
So-after firing thousands of workers and destroying government services
This clown will cut $58 billion
Maybe

A president who was truly committed to opposing political violence and standing up against antisemitism would have condemned the arson attack on Gov. Shapiro and his family by now.

Speaker Mike Johnson says we need to “eliminate people on Medicaid.”
They call it “rooting out fraud.”
But the plan is clear:
$880 billion in cuts—
and they’re coming for the poor, the sick, the young, and the old.
This is not reform. It’s extraction.

Every single “investment expert “ is emphasizing diversification to include investment in other stock markets. And that will extend to private markets and start ups.
It’s possible to export your smartest people, hire overseas , and fund their business at a fraction of costs you face here. Insane
