Watch this quick explainer on the Hatch Act and you’ll see just how far the regime has gone—propaganda in airports, partisan emails, and political orders from the top. It’s not “messaging,” it’s a full-blown assault on the law that keeps our government nonpartisan.

One issue with the trump/GOP cabal's tariffs that seems to be largely ignored:
the stupid tariff madness and the CHAOS introduced by the tariff madness is REDUCED ECONOMIC ACTIVITY! i.e., it is a recessionary force acting on ALL OF US!

"Cosplay Karen" Noem can whine about this shutdown being the Democrats' fault, but we know the truth. Republicans control Congress ＆ they let this happen to avoid voting on releasing the Epstein files.

DHS crossed the line drawn by the Hatch Act when it directed airports to air a political attack video blaming Democrats for TSA workers’ lost paychecks. What occurred was not communication; it was coercion.

People are asking about the TRO being clearly violated, ABC tries to find the answer.

In a deflating segment we see it’s like asking the arson to arrest himself. Who holds the violators of federal orders accountable when it’s the feds themselves doing the violating?
