Trump can never bring himself to show leadership when a Dem is killed or attacked. Can you imagine any other president failing to address the nation, to speak to Minn. families, and victims? He is a monster.

The American public has been inundated with news of the Trump family’s self-enrichment for so long that many of their dealings now barely create a stir. But Trump’s crypto dealings may be the most naked profiteering we’ve seen yet.

Also: Every court to have reached the Q over the past weeks has come to the same conclusion: The First Amendment categorically forecloses the government from deporting people solely because of their political viewpoints. Judge Young in AAUP/MESA; Judge Crawford in Mahdawi; Judge Sessions in Ozturk.
Over the past 24 hours, a judge in New Jersey held that he has jurisdiction to consider Mahmoud Khalil's First Amendment challenge; a judge in Vermont ordered ICE to free Mohsin Mahdawi; and a judge in Boston green-lighted AAUP and MESA's challenge to the broader ideological deportation policy.
