The U.S. has officially accepted a luxury jetliner from Qatar as a gift, and slated it to become a new Air Force One. Experts say that overhaul could take years and cost hundreds of millions.

The stupidity of the Supreme Court’s ruling that a President is immune from prosecution for anything he does in office has created a Frankenstein that breaks the law almost every day publicly and sneers @ the Judiciary.

The legal profession observed Law Day for 67 years.

It's never looked like this, with lawyers set to mobilize en masse in front of 40 U.S. courthouses.

They're reaffirming their oaths because of the "full-blown assault" on the rule of law. @www.AllRiseNews.com www.allrisenews.com/p/law-day-de...

Source at VA tells me an emergency data request went out demanding info any on relationships the 2nd largest Fed department and largest healthcare system in the US has with Harvard. We know there are significant research connections. This won't hurt Harvard. It will kill veterans. They don't care.

Real quick as I'm losing steam: dismantling CFPB puts consumers in a *worse* position than they were in 2008.
The consumer protection laws were still being enforced by the Fed and other agencies, just not particularly well. Now the signal is they won't be enforced at all.

The tariff saga and its impact on disabled people cannot be separated from the administration’s brutal cuts to Medicaid.

We're told the FDA is now making plans to end most of its routine food safety inspections

That oversight work would be effectively outsourced to state and local authorities, under this plan

I don't really care what the "political consequences" are of fighting for the proposition that *everyone* is entitled to due process before they are removed from the United States and sent to a Salvadoran prison.

It's not really a principle if you only adhere to it when it's politically expedient.
