The lies Pam Bondi and Stephen Miller just told about Abrego Garcia on national TV...
...I have no words for them. I am sick of calling things obscene or deranged. These are obviously evil people charting an obviously evil course for our country.

The Trump admin is dismantling Freedom of Information Act offices. Then the offices send out emails like, “Hello, the FOIA office has been placed on admin leave and is unable to respond to any emails.” The lengths this admin will go to ensure zero transparency with the American people is astounding.

Who benefits from an economic crisis? Trump does. He declares an economic emergency—then manufactures one—which allows him to expand his power. Under the National Emergencies Act (NEA), the president can unlock more than 120 special statutory powers. No wonder he was just out golfing—crisis pays.

Attn: Trump stated, “THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO GET RICH, RICHER THAN EVER BEFORE!!!” Many have interpreted this as an indication that he or his allies are using knowledge of tariffs for personal financial gain. This raises serious concerns about insider trading and market manipulation.

The government can’t use its power to prosecute and silence disfavored opinions.
We sent a letter pushing back on U.S. Attorney Martin’s message to Elon Musk about legal action against those who merely criticize, challenge, or “impact” DOGE employees’ work— an alarming threat to free speech.

The story of how Elon Musk’s young employees gained control of sensitive government data and spending decisions begins in 2010, when five judges twisted the First Amendment to ensure corporations and the individuals who get rich off them can spend as much as they want on elections.
