Trump just signed an executive order revoking a Biden era policy which lowers prescription drug costs for people on Medicare and Medicaid.
I wonder why he waited until the camera’s were off to sign that one.

Dems would get much more traction finding and promoting people saying what they know and experience.
What has more impact, This man speaking his mind or the Dems speaking “in unison “ ?

This is quite incredible. The US Justice Dept, under Trump, is defending its birthright citizenship Order by arguing that immigrant children covered by the Order cannot be citizens because... the children of Native Americans aren't US citizens.

It’s a cliche, of course, but the fact remains that there’s not a McDonald’s or Burger King restaurant anywhere in America that would hire a job applicant who had been convicted of 34 felonies and was battling criminal indictments in 3 additional jurisdictions.

It took only ~2.5 hrs for the National Assembly to gather a majority of members (190 of 300) and generate a unanimous vote (190 of 190) to vote down the emergency martial law. The law says the president "shall comply" with parliament's vote, but doesn't specify a time frame.
