This press conference on the DC crash is an embarrassment. Just a lot of rambling.

"Quit or be fired."

Further attempts by the administration to weed out anyone who isn't blindly loyal to Trump or his surrogates. It started with the return to office mandate - which is wildly unpopular as is - and will only continue.

I figured this was coming -- but not this quickly.

The wildest thing to me re: Trump's attempt to get rid of birthright citizenship is that seemingly very few people understand you can't override a constitutional amendment with an executive order.

And it's terrifying that people think that that's okay.
