When President Biden issued an executive order to expand voter registration, Republicans called it an illegal Washington power grab.
Now, the GOP is lauding President Trump's move to transform election laws by coercing states and bypassing Congress.

He’s worse than most of us even said he’d be. I personally didn’t think he’d crash the economy quite so quickly, but never underestimate his idiocy.

NEW: U.S. stock futures are tanking—and Trump doesn’t seem to care. The guy causing the damage doesn’t even get it. It’s like the arsonist lit the fire and is confused about the smoke.
This is 100% the result of his policy and we are not in good hands.

Apparently, the administration just revoked any grants that have to do with media literacy or disinformation. After all, how can you control what a population thinks when people study and report on how the public may be fooled?

In a normal world Waltz and Hagseth would be fired for leaking the info and setting up the chat. Gabbard and Ratcliffe would go for possibly misleading Congress yesterday.

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics.
Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

This is what happens when you have an entire cabinet full of folks who would NEVER pass a regular security clearance.
Led by a president who would never be able to pass one either.

How many Signal chats with sensitive information about military operations are ongoing within the Pentagon right now? Where else are war plans being shared with such abject disregard for our national security?

Top intelligence committees need to begin an investigation into Pete Hegseth's epic Signal chat mishap. ASAP.
There should be televised hearings so all Americans have transparency on how such an enormous breach of national security could take place in first place.
