The last time a president and his cronies - including a young J. Edgar Hoover - tried to mass deport Americans they didn't like, the nation stopped them, as I discuss here.

Yes, I know nothing matters for the One Special Boy, but these new blanket tariffs - like all the other tariffs - are wildly illegal & violate multiple domestic laws <and> multiple international treaties. We should enforce our laws & comply with our treaty obligations.

The Comey indictment has "exposed the limits of the justice system to provide a check on Trump's will." www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Liz Oyer, the Justice Department’s former pardon attorney who was fired by Trump Justice Department officials this year, said the investigations of Comey and other Trump critics has exposed the limits of the justice system to provide a check on Trump’s will.

“We are realizing now that our justice system really relies on those who are entrusted with power exercising that power in good faith,” she said. “That has worked throughout our history, but it is no longer working because we have an elected leader who has intentionally decimated all of the safeguards within the system, has loaded the department with people who are blindly loyal to him and is willing to tear down the whole system to get what he wants, which is revenge against his enemies.”

The indictment of James Comey may have a fatal flaw—the unlawful appointment of the U.S. Attorney who signed it. This would be a major setback for Trump's revenge agenda. youtube.com/shorts/KeLFw...

Two federal judges have now disqualified Trump's picks for US Attorney jobs. Both courts found that Trump's attempt to do an end-run around Senate confirmation was illegal. It could mean other unqualified extremists - like Comey's prosecutor - could also lose their posts. youtube.com/shorts/Cb3VA...
