Scalise on CNBC: "This bond downgrade is another serious blow that shows that America needs to get its fiscal house in order. We start to do that in this bill."

NOTE: The bill is project to increase the debt by trillions of dollars, hence the pushback from the right.

WHEN is his mental acuity going to become a topic for mainstream media?
Trump on his Middle East trip: "They gave us a nice contribution of about $5 trillion."

(The entire GDP of the US is under $30 trillion ... )

To make matters worse, importers are leaving inventory in China ports. Waiting for tariffs to be lowered. If they are lowered enough, there will be a crush to ship them here and transport them when they get here. That will drive transportation costs way up. = More inflation, post tariffs
That means empty shelves, an economic slowdown, and layoffs, actually.

Somehow, Trump has declared that we’re under numerous national emergencies from the Southern Border Emergency to the Energy Emergency, Trade Emergency, Public Lands Emergency, and Immigration Enforcement Emergency. Yet these crises seem so “urgent” that he finds time to golf every weekend. Odd.

Friendly reminder. In the United States, criminals are entitled to due process. Even if you pay hush money rig an election, steal top secret documents, or incite a mob to overthrow the government; no matter how egregious your crimes, you’re entitled to due process.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Faced with a flurry of adverse court orders it would rather not follow, the Trump White House is increasingly deploying a strategy of claiming or even manufacturing its own uncertainty to dodge their effects without appearing to outright defy them @theguardian.com www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Trump officials create uncertainty to evade court orders rather than comply
Recalcitrance appears to be product of Trump White House’s maximalist interpretation of executive powers

How is it possible U.S. citizens are being held as illegal aliens in America even after they produce their birth certificate? This is intolerable. www.nbcnews.com/news/latino/...

Juan Carlos Gomez-Lopez is being held even though a county judge found his birth certificate “authentic” and said there wasn’t reason to consider him an “illegal alien.”

Hey, do you know what you call a guy who never admits a mistake, who becomes President of the United States by never admitting a mistake, who then convinces his entire presidential administration to never admit—let alone correct—any mistake, leading to innocents getting life sentences?

A sociopath.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

The U.S. says it doesn’t have the power to return Abrego Garcia.

El Salvador also says it doesn’t have the power to return Abrego Garcia.

It’s obvious bullshit and depraved to the core.
Pam Bondi: “That’s up to El Salvador if they want to return him…If they wanted to return him, we would facilitate it, meaning provide a plane.”

Nayib Bukele: “How can I return him to the U.S.? Like, I smuggle him into the U.S.?”

No, you put him on the plane the AG just said the US would provide!

The Admin is continually missing the point in the Abrego Garcia case that it has committed a constitutional violation and is obligated to remedy it. It’s not some freestanding order re foreign policy.The courts’ presumption of the Exec good faith brings a reciprocal oblig to comply w/ lawful orders.
