Barron Trump was born in March 2006. Melania Trump didn't become a US citizen until July 2006.

The unspoken implication here is that the elite, rich Trump supporters assumed that Elon would be the functioning President and the actual President would be a figurehead, *and they were okay with that*.

Since tariffs, I noticed a surprising trend: elite Trump supporters saying they might have made a mistake. So I asked them what they were thinking, both in November and today.

One big takeaway: they thought Elon was actually competent. That error proved catastrophic.

Some elite Trump supporters are having regrets. We asked them why.
After the tariffs, they’re worried they made a MAGA mistake.

Yes, and we — Jews — have to start speaking up, or we cede the floor to Stephen Miller. The IHRA definition of antisemitism which underpins the attacks on universities is nonsense: it would brand ~1/3 of American Jews as antisemitic. We have to speak up now, and loudly. www.al.com/politics/202...
Weaponization of antisemitism silencing dissent. As Jews in Alabama we say ‘Not in our name’: op-ed
In recent months, we have seen something deeply troubling: accusations of antisemitism being weaponized to silence criticism of Israel’s political decisions and to punish those who stand up for Palest...

Despite admitting to having illegally sent a guy to El Salvador by mistake, and even though the U.S. is paying El Salvador to indefinitely imprison him, the DOJ is arguing that, well, nothing to do, it's not in our hands anymore. The general tone of their response is "welp, sucks to be him."
But there is no jurisdiction in habeas. Plaintiffs admit—as they must—that the United States does not have custody over Abrego Garcia. They acknowledge that there may be “difficult questions of redressability” in this case, reflecting their recognition that Defendants do not have “the power to produce” Abrego Garcia from CECOT in El Salvador. Mem. Supp. TRO Mot. 2. But even more, they concede that Abrego Garcia is not in Defendants’ custody. Id. (asking the Court to order Defendants to “request that the government of El Salvador return Plaintiff to Defendants’ custody”). Despite their allegations of continued payment for Abrego Garcia’s detention, Plaintiffs do not argue that the United States can exercise its will over a foreign sovereign. The most they ask for is a court order that the United States entreat—or even cajole—a close ally in its fight against transnational cartels. This is not “custody” to which the great writ may run. This Court therefore lacks jurisdiction.

Putin has been trying to gain traction to freeze his invasion by threatening use of nuclear weapons but his threats don't materialize into action. His rash move to destroy ocean energy infrastructure may evidence he fears Russian economy is reaching a tipping point.

Anger over Smith’s dismissals of the Trump cases is understandable, but it’s the only move he had. By filing preemptively, he keeps the cases alive for 2029. My thoughts in MSNBC Daily.

Smith's move could be an effort to keep the cases alive in the long term.

Well, as far as justice is concerned, we're officially living in interesting times.
