If guilty people don't have Due Process rights, then innocent people don't have Due Process rights, because we don't know if they're innocent or guilty until we have a trial or hearing.

if you are unable to pay for veterans' housing and Medicare. if feeding the impoverished and schoolchildren is out of your price range. if you are unable to pay seniors who have made lifetime contributions to social security. How, then, can you afford to spend millions on a draft dodger's parade?

What pushed the MAGA movement across the majoritarian threshold at the ballot box was the price of eggs, Nathan Gardels writes.

And now voters are paying for it.

Trump is now talking about shipping U.S. citizens to prisons in El Salvador.
Let me say that again: U.S. citizens. To foreign prisons.

This is not just unconstitutional—it’s unhinged.
Trump says he wants to imprison US citizens in El Salvador. That's likely illegal

What some people aren’t factoring into their analysis is the reality that companies were buying tons of inventory to beat the tariffs.
That’s cash taken from being able to invest or hire. In fact the probably cut costs and jobs as a result.

Fear is one of the most human emotions of all. Fight or flight still, governs how we react to and navigate our world. Courage is moving forward when we are afraid.

This is beyond reckless. With measles cases spreading across TX and the U.S., we need scientists at the table, not folks pushing conspiracy theories. RFK Jr. is playing games with people’s lives.
