Trump’s Wildly Unconstitutional Plot to Banish U.S. Citizens to Gulags His plan to send American citizens to foreign prisons is the latest in a long series of affronts to the American constitutional order.

Trump is considering forcibly exiling U.S. citizens to other countries. Would it be legal?

Absolutely not. No statute allows the president to unilaterally remove American citizens at a whim.

Trump will reportedly end the IRS Direct File program that allowed taxpayers to file taxes for free.

This comes after Intuit, the maker of TurboTax, lobbied the government for years to block IRS free file.

Intuit donated $1 million to Trump’s inauguration.

See how this works?

A whistleblower's disclosure details how DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data A whistleblower tells Congress and NPR that DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data and hid its tracks. "None of that ... information should ever leave the agency," said a former NLRB official.

“…members of the DOGE team asked that their activities not be logged on the system and then appeared to try to cover their tracks behind them, turning off monitoring tools and manually deleting records of their access…”

What kind of shady s**t is going on here??

I don't care how many junior staffs Hegseth or others throw under the bus.

Hegseth HIMSELF was on the Signal group chat. He used his fingers to enter the sensitive military info into the chat.

He bears 100% full responsibility for that -- no matter how many scapegoats he finds.

You must understand what is truly at stake here.

All tyranny needs to thrive is for people of good conscience to remain silent.
