MAGA is big mad that the Philadelphia Eagles are snubbing Donald Trump and are skipping the White House visit after winning the Super Bowl.

This kid now controls whether your local hospital or clinic gets paid. Many could go insolvent or engage in mass layoffs if payments are significantly delayed.

Donald Trump is starting his second term with a negative approval rating of 47%.

Yet he won the popular vote and won all seven swing states.

The math isn't mathing.

Totally lost in the chaos is that American troops have begun setting up a concentration camp
About 200 Marines and soldiers landed at Guantánamo Bay over the weekend to provide security and begin setting up at a new tent city for migrants, as officials comply with President Trump’s order to prepare the Navy base for as many as 30,000 deportees.

The Trump campaign was based on the idea that Americans shouldn’t have to make sacrifices and now they’re expecting Americans to make sacrifices. Good luck with that.
NEW: Trump is going to force Americans to pay more for coffee because Colombia refused to accept his deportation flights.

He announces immediate 25% tariffs on all Colombian goods, rising to 50% next week.

Diplomatic bullying of a supposed ally and economic self-harm.

It’s Day 6.

Literally nothing is as MAGA as watching a bunch of self-righteous frauds who pretend to give a damn about Christianity, viciously attacking a minister who preached about caring for the vulnerable while their rapist-felon messiah scoffed at her.

Your religion is short one Jesus.

Legal status quo is why I refuse to get a JD. Lawyers obey in advance to new shifting legal norms. It’s disgusting.
Donald Trump has nominated _his own personal attorneys_ for the _top three positions_ at DOJ.

Where is the outrage from the legal community? From academia? From the media?

Trump is a man who has repeatedly says he has a right to control all DOJ operations and to treat DOJ as his personal law firm.
