Trump says Dems should be killed for warning about his illegal orders. Then in 48 hours: —Judge finds Trump DC troop op is ILLEGAL —Military lawyers: boat strikes ILLEGAL —Probe into ILLEGAL mortgage inquiries —Judge probes ILLEGAL ICE flights —Study: DOJ defied courts 26 times

On Vance distancing himself yesterday from Trump's happy talk about the economy. Vance is in touch with reality. He can be briefed on data and listens to business types. If he's talking down expectations, he probably has pretty good reason to think the economy's getting worse.

JUST IN: A federal judge says one of the Venezuelan men — illegally deported to El Salvador in March before he was swapped back to Venezuela in a prisoner exchange — is now missing, possibly a victim of the violence he was seeking asylum from. https://t.co/KYeQEmHe4H

For what it’s worth, as a commander and officer it was my duty, moral obligation, and legal requirement to first question and then to not obey any illegal order I was given. The same is true for everyone who swears the oath. Hope that clears things up.

It seems I struck a nerve with MAGA. They’re scrambling to pretend this is all some “uniparty” moment and that Trump was nobly absent because he’s the great outsider. No. The reality is a lot simpler: Trump is just an asshole, and every former president and vice president
📸 What a moment at the Cheney funeral. A light hearted exchange between old political rivals George W. Bush and Al Gore had President @JoeBiden and @DrBiden laughing along. It felt like a glimpse of the country we used to be, and the country we could still be without the

Remarkable: Rep Chrissy Houlahan, one of the Dems Trump called for executing, tells me her office literally filled out a Capitol Police threat report listing "the president" as the person making the threat. It's at 9:20 on our pod. More like that here: https://t.co/Rpdcd9mtTZ

white nationalist fanatics have an all-encompassing worldview as stupid as it is simple
“Rent is too high!” There are tens of millions of criminal illegals in our country. “Groceries cost too much!” There are tens of millions of criminal illegals in our country. “There aren’t enough jobs!” There are tens of millions of criminal illegals in our country. “Women

Just to be clear — I’d have taken this 83-year-old, dignified, Joe Biden who spent his birthday at his political opponent’s funeral over the guy currently selling the country for parts to Saudi Arabia and calling for members of Congress to be executed. But maybe that’s just me.
President Biden appears fit and healthy on his 83rd birthday as he attends the funeral of former Vice President Cheney.

Predictable from the start that Trump tariffs would ravage US manufacturing. Trump tariffs inflate the cost of US industrial inputs. Trump tariffs render US industry permanently less competitive. Trump tariffs surrender the world to China. Trump tariffs are for losers.
The US continues to lose manufacturing jobs—payrolls are down 94k over the last year, & another 6k jobs were lost in September Transportation (especially auto manufacturing) and electronics/electrical manufacturing are the biggest losers, but almost no subsectors are doing well

This is an astonishing thread: Please read every word. It outlines how the Trump administration has systematically and repeatedly lied about its use of force in Chicago. I don't know what the remedy is, but if federal agents assault civilians, shouldn't they be held accountable?
THREAD: Judge Ellis is the first federal judge to review extensive body cam video of DHS's actions in Chicago. She finds that DHS *repeatedly* misled the public and made claims that were disproven by agents' own videos. I'll go through some of the most egregious ones here.

Sen. Elissa Slotkin tells me threats against her have exploded since President Trump accused her and colleagues of sedition. “The Sergeant of Arms arranged for us to have 24/7 security, and that's because the threat level just went through the roof.”

This is a good line and the key point to be amplifying: "What’s most telling is that the President considers it punishable by death for us to restate the law." Keep shining a bright light on Trump's violent lawlessness.
Dems not backing down in the slightest in the face of Trump's call for their execution. They're treating Trump like *he's* the violent criminal and the real threat to our Constitution order, which is absolutely correct. Keep polarizing this Dems

Republicans are gaslighting us again. The idea that we should be outraged that Nancy Pelosi called Trump a vile creature when Trump mocked the attack on her husband and called for the execution of lawmakers today is outrageous—she’s being gentle with him.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) says someone showed up to her D.C. office today and made white supremacist threats. Capitol Police had to intervene. This was hours after Trump said Democrats in Congress should be executed. "When leaders promote hate, hate shows up."

No. This will not ever happen. It is a complete capitulation to Putin. The West can not allow this monstrosity to happen. It is historically analogous to Munich 1938. Just no…

Breaking News: President Trump plans to open 1.3 billion acres of U.S. waters to drilling. It is one of his most significant steps yet to increase the production of fossil fuels, as dozens of countries have been calling for a phaseout of oil, gas and coal.

The plan from the Interior Department is one of the president’s most significant steps yet to increase domestic fossil fuel production.
