NO president should have this much power. NO ONE. The Supreme Court is wrong. The Federalist Society is wrong. When they give more power to the president, they are taking it AWAY from US. The people.
This is wrong. It's un-American and anti-democracy.

Not one but *two* GOP senators flirted with opposing Hegseth, chickened out for fear of drawing a 2026 primary challenger, and then decided not to run anyway.
Remember, too, that Hegseth would have been rejected if a single additional Republican senator — or, JD Vance — had joined Sen. Collins, McConnell, and Murkowski in voting no with the Democrats. See: www.senate.gov/legislative/...

It's Fun to Watch Behn Give Van Epps a Run for His Money
Republican Van Epps is still heavily favored to win the 7th — but thanks to Democrat Behn, this race is no cakewalk

This is how fragile Trump's support truly is: I took this pic in 2023. He was out of power and suffered a string of legal losses. MAGA likes winners, not losers. The Enquirer, which used "catch & kill" to help deliver the White House to Trump in 2016, called him a "sex creep" just 7 years later.

Taxpayers are funding Kash Patel's booty calls.
I'm so old, I remember Republican's outrage over a piece of the ACA that required insurance companies to cover birth control. They never shut up about that. "Why should I pay for your free birth control," even though they weren't.
Now, it's crickets.

Trump is obviously very, very ill. They are hiding him away from the cameras. His sundowning must be really awful if they're doing this.
For all the pearl clutching over Biden's age and "who is running the show," I have to wonder why NOBODY is asking these questions about Trump. WTF, media.

Is the reason they had to dig back to 2019 because Trump is golfing?

As a person with experience with malignant narcissists, the best thing those reporters could do when Trump says cruel things is to ALL start laughing - and make sure he knows they’re laughing at how ridiculously immature he is.
Then ask him if he’s done with his tantrum & repeat the original Q.

I don't want to hear Pete Hegseth resigning for his "kill them all" orders. I want him on trial.

My god, I could write a dissertation on how demented just these two paragraphs of New York Times coverage of the DC shooting are.
The details of the shooting begin with Trump sending troops to do law enforcement in a city with plummeting crime. How does that "dovetail neatly" with anything he says?
