Former DOJ pardon attorney Liz Oyer: Donald Trump expects the Justice Department to bend reality to his will. And the lawyers who are making legal arguments that are not in good faith are complicit in what he's doing to destroy the rule of law in this country, and they should be held accountable

Trump thinks tariff money is his money. He thinks Air Force One is his plane. He defended his White House press ban by saying: "I don't have to let them into my– into the people's house." (He really meant "my.") They're stealing our country. Vote against all Republicans.

If you joined the military recently hoping you could just do your job and serve your country without being called upon to participate in a Christian nationalist crusade against Muslims abroad or a prop in a Pete Hegseth workout video, you picked the wrong time.

🚨BREAKING: The Trump administration cannot leverage grants meant to help prevent terrorist attacks to force states and local governments to adopt a slate of new anti-voting measures, a federal judge ruled Monday in a major win for voters. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Blanche can’t provide one example so he tells her that she can’t ask him that. I would’ve said “I can ask you whatever the hell I want to ask you! And since you failed to provide an example, I’d say you don’t have one!”

Blanche: "What [the press] say is exactly the issue when it comes to national security." Raddatz: "Give us an example." Blanche: "Wait, I'm sorry, give you an example of when CNN doesn't report accurately? You cannot be asking me that."

“the administration unrolled a new tactic of scheduling “mega-master” hearings – mass hearings in immigration courts, scheduled at the last minute so that many people do not know to, or are unable to, attend their mandatory court appointments. The no-shows are then . . .” apple.news/AaVYLmjBTSPy...

Gone in 90 seconds: an ‘invisibilized’ ICE is arresting more people than ever — Guardian US

After public backlash, the Trump administration changed its tactics from ‘siege’ to ‘soft feet’. Now, ICE is everywhere

Donald Trump has just proclaimed that China has massively cut aid to Iran because he asked them to. Either he thinks you are stupid, or he really is the stupidest US President ever. And that bar is pretty low.

Todd Blanche just said the First Amendment protections to covering a President is a "privilege not a right." He then defended Trump banning media outlets based on content. Democrats need to IMPEACH this guy when they win in November! www.mediaite.com/media/news/y...

ABC's Martha Raddatz Debates Todd Blanche on Trump Press Ban

"You cannot be asking me that!" Blanche said — incredulous he'd been challenged to cite reporting from the banned outlets that jeopardized national security.

I want to draw attention to this as often as I can - not only is this *action* terrible, the intention behind it is to consolidate power and eliminate the three branches of government. The courts are already severely compromised. The power of the purse belongs to Congress.
