Trump claims “any document” signed by Joe Biden is “hereby terminated.”
He calls out executive orders later but obviously “any document” would be much broader and include legislation.
(He can’t legally do that but, as always, we get to watch how far he can push this without repercussions)

It's cute, reading all these anguished cries: "when this is all over, these guys need to go to jail!" I remember saying that during Bush I crimes, and during Bush II crimes, and during Trump I crimes.
Guess how many of those guys went to jail.

Apparently the USA for the district of Hawaii is not actually properly appointed, since his 120 days have expired as interim. Don't know what the legal eagles can make of this.

A report reveals the DOJ—after frantically realizing the files would be released—has been paying FBI agents nearly $1M in overtime to work on the “Epstein Transparency Project."
Ostensibly aimed at protecting victims' privacy, the project could also prevent exposing Trump. trib.al/su4zh6N

Pete Hegseth should be prosecuted for first degree murder. Fun fact: every district in the United States has jurisdiction. A prosecutor could empanel a Grand Jury *anywhere* and secure an indictment. For example, if I were Hegseth, I would avoid any layovers in Hawaii.

Hey guys, so what if we did a huge wave of collaterized debt obligations again--no, it's VERY different this time.
This time, instead of being ultimately backstopped by houses that last decades, it's backed by GPUs that toast themselves in about 2 years.
2007 was amateur work compared to this.

Effectively there is no *one* person performing the duties of President of the United States right now. We are in an interregnum with an occupied throne.
The fundamental thing to understand about this administration is the president is a grumpy retiree. He has no interest in working anymore. Which leads to him being pissed that he is getting asked a question, pissed he has to show up and work, the scheming viziers running the show, etc..

In July, the Trump admin took the position that a 1996 law had, without anyone noticing for almost 30 years, made it so that most undocumented immigrants were not eligible to be released on bond.
That position has been *overwhelmingly* rejected by federal judges; 200+ of them!
