Shoulder replacement. Yay.

Trump is defying a 9-0 Supreme Court ruling against him. The Constitutional Crisis is no longer some abstract idea, it's right here staring us in the face.

US and El Salvador celebrate their refusal to return man wrongly deported to "gulag" Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele and US President Donald Trump called a man mistakenly deported to El Salvador a “terrorist.” They say they cannot bring him back.

The two men shook hands over the unjustified, indefinite imprisonment of people convicted of nothing.

“We have bad ones, too. I’m all for it,” Trump said of sending US citizens to El Salvador.

What we all just witnessed had all the earmarks of a criminal conspiracy to deprive Abrego-Garcia of his constitutional rights, as well as an impeachable offense. The fraud scheme was a phony agreement engineered by the US to have Bukele say he lacks power to return Abrego Garcia and he won't do it.

1) The presser with Bukele with theater designed to get credulous journos to repeat the "terrorism" claim w/o question. Remember: THESE VERY SAME PEOPLE freed adjudged Jan6 terrorists on Day One.

2) The WAY in which they flouted courts provides more surface area (bc this was not classified).

Trump is denying due process to foreign nationals here legally before ripping them from their families and deporting them.

Do we really believe this regime will follow any sort of due process for American citizens before Trump tries to deport them?

Call it what it is: fascism.

Let’s Create “Town Hall Night in America” It’s time for Democrats to institutionalize our oldest form of democracy

"town hall night in america" -- every congressional district, once a month, all on the same night:

A two-panel political cartoon shared by the Twitter account "Right Wing Cope." In the first panel, a man in a suit wearing a "Make America Great Again" hat says, "You better stand up and cheer for a kid with brain cancer." In the second panel, a small child says, "I have brain cancer, please don’t cut my funding," to which the MAGA-hat-wearing man responds, "fuck off." The comic critiques perceived hypocrisy in political support for children with illnesses versus policy actions.

Pretty much, yes.

Thou shalt not claim to be improving efficiency when all you do is fire people and then beg them to come back.

Well said!

Another plane incident in DC:

An American Airlines flight from Boston had to abort its landing at DCA airport this morning to avoid another plane that was taking off on the same runway, authorities said.

House Republicans hit the brakes on town halls after blowback over Trump's cuts A number of Republican lawmakers faced significant pushback in their home districts over Trump and Elon Musk's slashing of the federal government.

"Party leaders suggest that if lawmakers feel the need to hold such events, they do tele-town halls or at least vet attendees to avoid scenes that become viral clips, according to GOP sources."

They made it clear, they don't care what you think. Get louder: 202-224-3121

Republicans are too chickenshit to hold town halls. Shocker.

Here’s an idea: Democrats, hold town halls in Republican districts.

IT
IS
HAPPENING

Let me speak to the DOGE audit language. Many people who work in both the Treasury and specifically the IRS are CPAs. Most audit firms hire CPAs. A 19yo coder has absolutely no idea how to accurately identify waste or fraud. Calling what DOGE is doing as a audit, is a flat out lie.

That’s more like it.

JFC indeed.
