Trump thinks habeas corpus is a member of his cabinet he hasn't met.

“Have you given any more thought to suspending habeas corpus?”

TRUMP: “Suspending who?” 🤷🏼

Aaand scene.

Wow — Harvard Crimson student newspaper busts Hegseth for having written a long policy brief touting diversity before he joined Trump’s war on DEI.

With receipts. Bravo, Crimson.

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square.

Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files.

Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.

In a functional democracy with a media ecosystem mobilizing to defend the republic this would be #FrontPage news.

POTUS refuses to answer - or is ignorant - to the significance of suspending habeus corpus.

Q: Have you given any more thought to possibly suspending habeas corpus?

TRUMP: Suspending who?

Q: Habeas corpus

TRUMP: I don't know. I'd rather leave that to Kristi.

You're the Speaker of the House of Representatives, doing nothing while a Mad King steals your constitutional authority & violates the law every day.

Also, you control a majority in Congress & can't keep the government open.

Also, stop lying in front of microphones every day.

Mike Johnson: "We said, 'don't sit on your couch and play video games'- by the way, also not a talking point. There was an AEI study, I think one of the organizations that polled this, and most of these young men who are not working are sitting around literally playing video games. Get back to work"

One thing that comes through awfully clearly in these ICE videos is how many of these goons gravitated toward the job because being able to assault people with impunity is a big thrill for them.

📣President Trump has NO authority to unilaterally "determine" that the U.S. is at war with criminal gangs.

The people targeted on those boats are at most criminal suspects -- not "combatants."

Killing them is murder.

Journalist Mario Guevara has been deported after 100+ days in custody — just for doing his job.

Watch @seth-stern.bsky.social explain why this is “unconstitutional, un-American, and wrong.”

News organizations are failing to communicate that POTUS is detached from reality & democracy.

Democracywashing his declared war on US cities and neutral on his murdering people on boats THOUSANDS of miles from US “territory”.

Zero context of how *unconstitutional* & dangerous this is.
POTUS POST “A boat loaded with enough drugs to kill 25 TO 50
THOUSAND PEOPLE was stopped, early this morning off the Coast of Venezuela, from entering American Territory.”

This is quite an escalation by ICE to go after immigration expert @davidjbier.bsky.social for his always accurate social media posts. Wow.

ICE says I cause assaults on ICE by reciting facts about ICE’s recent shooting but refuses to link to the thread. Only posting a picture. ICE lies and ICE hides. You can read the facts for yourselves

MSNBC is reporting that Kash Patel fired another FBI agent today because they refused to arrest and perp walk James Comey. It's all for show—they want to embarrass the guy and put on a big display for their base. They know the case is going to get thrown out by the courts.

Your daily reminder that the last three times the government shut down, Donald Trump was president of the United States and Republicans controlled the House and Senate.

They can't govern.

Corporate news organizations are failing to communicate that POTUS is detached from reality and democracy.

h/t @atrupar.com for chronicling this stunning moment of @repdean.bsky.social pleading with Speaker Johnson.

More representatives need to make this case publicly.

MADELEINE DEAN: The president is unhinged. He's unwell

JOHNSON: A lot of folks on your side are too

D: Oh my god, please. That performance in front of the generals?

J: I didn't see it

D: It's so dangerous! Our allies are looking elsewhere. Our enemies are laughing. You have a POTUS who's unwell.

Next Monday's "One First" was going to be about how we should stop covering new #SCOTUS terms through the "big" cases the Court will hear; and instead focus on how the Court is behaving.

Fortunately for me (and you), @dahlialithwick.bsky.social and @mjsdc.bsky.social did it first—and *way* better:
The Supreme Court Will Do Four Things This Term That Tell You Everything You Need to Know
In the week before the October 2025 Supreme Court term opens, the impulse among court watchers will again be to do what we always do.

Trump's whole excuse for not averting a shutdown by extending ACA subsidies is that "Democrats want to fund illegal immigrants' healthcare." But it's a lie! And they know it's a lie! But they can't let the rubes in the base know it's a lie because otherwise they'll lose their public justification.
