A masterful, definitive brief from @judgeluttig.bsky.social on every illegal & unconstitutional action undertaken by Trump in the first 100 days. And a sober truth about Trump’s intention to defy even SCOTUS. Print this one out.

This is a very good and useful news story. It reports on DOGE’s understanding that people hate them and what they’re planning to fix it.

Probably the wrong time to mention that in the fall of 2016 I had a horrible nightmare that Trump won the presidency, merged the USA with Russia, and jointly attempted to annex Canada.
