Trump DOJ will avenge the KKK by taking out SPLC The racism is not subtle.

Trump is weaponizing the DOJ to punish the Southern Poverty Law Center after they’ve spent decades fighting racism and hate.

Even if this case fails in court, “it will still serve the larger conservative goal of recasting perpetrators of rightwing violence as the real victims.”

Senate Republicans clear go-it-alone path for ICE funding An early-morning budget vote sets the stage for a planned $70 billion immigration enforcement bill.

Senate Republicans rejected every Democratic proposal to hold ICE accountable, instead ramming through a vote that gives $70 BILLION to ICE.

A Democratic Senate majority would have stopped this. We know what we have to do in November.

Why is the Maga project teetering? Because not even Trump supporters voted for this dysfunction | Moira Donegan The president’s fixation on culture-war grievances is a colossal misreading of voters who just want prices to come down, says Guardian US columnist Moira Donegan

“Not even Trump supporters voted for this dysfunction.”

The “Trump is for you” message is vanishing as fast as Trump’s poll numbers.

Between a stagnant economy and a fracturing MAGA base, the backlash is real – and Democrats are going to take back power in the midterms.

Trump Voters Are Over It A shocking number of the president’s supporters have turned against him.

Trump is losing ground. The “manosphere” is baffled, religious conservatives are calling out “blasphemy,” and small-dollar donations are plummeting.

This is promising for November. Democrats can serve as a key check on Trump’s unpopular agenda. But we have to get to work now.

Trump’s presidency is what evil looks like: absurd, frightening, cruel | Nesrine Malik Commentators have said that the US president’s clownishness and lack of ideology somehow make him less dangerous. They’re wrong, says Guardian columnist Nesrine Malik

Trump causes real-world damage to satisfy his insatiable ego. 

We can’t just dismiss his erratic behavior. His reign of resentment is dangerous and is impacting all of us.

Who owns presidential records? Trump's Justice Department says it's him The Trump administration asserts that a nearly 50-year-old law requiring the preservation of presidential records is unconstitutional. Historians warn important papers could be destroyed.

Trump is targeting the law that preserves White House records. 

He’s trying to ensure the presidency “is answerable to no one, not even the court of history.”

Trump is slowing down legal immigration by any means necessary.

ICE Agent Charged With Assault After Motorists Say He Brandished Gun

State prosecutors charged an ICE agent with assault for actions while on duty in Minneapolis. This is the first case connected to ICE’s cruelty during its 10-week reign of terror, but it’s far from the only instance of assault, violence, and abuse of power.

Minnesotans deserve justice.
