The bar is so low for the president that doing the bare minimum has the media praising him

Republicans are about to strip 13.7 million Americans of healthcare so does anyone know where I can find some nonstop coverage about the previous president being old??
This is HUGE.
For those wondering why due process is essential for EVERYONE. This is why!
A Republican congressman fundraising off threats from Trump is the most 2025 Republican Party thing ever.
Crockett: That’s why they hired everybody from Fox because all they’re trying to do is put on a show.. I want us to refocus our attention on the American people and stop demonizing every person that ends up in ICE custody…
*Applause*
Van Drew: *bangs gavel*
Dear press: Why do questions of mental acuity activate only with the prior but not the current administration? Asking for a nation.
Sorbo goes viral with another fake story. Rinse, repeat..
“Habeas corpus is the legal principle that requires the government to provide a public reason for detaining and imprisoning people. If not for that protection, the government could simply arrest people, including American citizens, and hold them indefinitely for no reason.”
NEW: DOJ reveals new details in charges against Rep. LaMonica McIver, accused of assaulting two agents.
Plus, ICE is considering changing its protocols on congressional visits to ICE centers, per internal docs.

At some point soon all Democratic Senators need to learn that “nuanced” decisions are not going to work anymore. They are destroying the government and your “compromise” is just a surrender. Some seem to get it but too many are clinging to a fantasy.
Someone please explain to me how this isn’t a flagrant violation of SCOTUS’ decision in AARP that due process requires more than 24 hours of notice.
You can avoid it as much as you want. But this is at the root.
Trump can only destroy America if we let him.

And now, an emergency motion for a temporary injunction to keep the government from deporting people in another case to South Sudan. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
The National Institutes of Health has abruptly canceled millions of dollars in grants for research without a valid explanation, stifling scientific progress and putting lives at risk.
We're taking the Trump administration to court this week because funding science shouldn't be political.
Is it too much to ask for an IRS Commissioner who understands the law?

You are going to see an obituary that I wrote a few months ago for Pope Francis. I really had the toughest time writing it. He was a complicated Pope. We are never going to see another Jesuit Pope in this lifetime, and maybe never again in the Catholic church.
Vale Pope Francis

Pope Francis died at 88, the Vatican announced Monday, ending a pontificate that sought to reshape the Roman Catholic Church into a more inclusive institution. Cardinals will now decide whether to continue his approach or restore more doctrinaire leadership.

Trump is weak, compromised and corrupt. Even worse, he’s a traitor to America who’s shamelessly selling out our country to his puppet master Putin on a daily basis.
Any Republican in Congress who supports him at this point is just as much of a traitor. Fuck them all.
Trump thinks we have transgender mice because he doesn't understand what transgenic means.
Hegseth thinks we have gay aircraft because a pilot named his plane after his mother whose surname was Gay.
Musk thinks he saved us money on contracts cancelled when George W. Bush was president.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This is a lie... First of all town halls aren't being held in "arenas" they are being held in churches, schools and community centers. Second, 90% of the time you have to be a resident who lives in the district to register to attend with a valid address.
It’s borderline criminal.
One day we’ll be seeing these same faces on trial for terrible crimes.
If we survive it.
A cartoon of a woman looking at her computer monitor. The title of the cartoon is "Peak Operational Efficiency." Quote bubbles coming out of the monitor suggest numerous emails with contradictory information and instructions. "You're fired!" "NO - WAIT! Never mind!" "Back to work!" "Send your manager FIVE accomplishments or you're fired!" "No don't!" "Send five or you're fired!" There's an additional chat bubble coming from the monitor with an apparent headline that reads, "Thousands of fired federal workers called back to work." Finally, there is a cell phone on the desk, and the caller is asking, "Hey...do you still have a job?
