Congress is not powerless. Democrats must unify around an actual agenda.
1. Vote no on DHS funding bill.
2. Repeal the multi-year $75 billion funding for ICE.
3. End qualified immunity for ICE agents.
4. Investigate and prosecute every single ICE agent who broke the law.

Now that Republicans finally released the video and transcript of Jack Smith’s deposition (hidden on New Year’s Eve), it’s time to grant Smith’s request to testify in a public hearing like every other Special Counsel has done.
The American people deserve to hear the truth live.

In a decision issued October 1, 2025, Reagan-appointed U.S. District Judge William Young includes a postcard sent to him saying “Trump has pardons and tanks ... what do you have?" He responds "Alone, I have nothing but my sense of duty. Together, We the People ... have our magnificent Constitution."

TBH there is no way to design any system to counteract an executive declaring "I have all power and can exercise it arbitrarily" when a majority of the legislative and judicial branches responds with "that's right." Such a society is too primitive for modern governance and the rule of law.
Again, this is what I mean when I say the Constitution is broken
Which of the institutions it establishes, exactly, ISN'T broken?? Which is acting to maintain the constitutional order?

Trump is ordering the military to use “full force” against an American city, while the Supreme Court declares him the Sun King and Congress hides under a pile of coats.

NEW: Donald Trump announced the US was imposing reciprocal tariffs on a small collection of Antarctic islands that are not inhabited by humans, as part of a global trade war aimed at asserting US dominance.
