No way millionaires are leaving NY. Millionaires need proximity to their contacts, and are not going to give up their urban advantages.

If SCOTUS planned to uphold birthright citizenship, they would’ve left the lower-court rulings untouched. Taking the case is the tell. You don’t grab a 150-year precedent just to admire it. They took it because they intend to change it. Pretending otherwise is denial.

No need for a hepatitis B vaccine for newborns, when you've got a president who had a "great super genius" uncle, and, as more people in America died from Covid than in any other country, said "I like this stuff. I really get it".

The decision, at least at first, falls to US District Judge Joseph Leeson, an Obama appointee presiding over Laiss’ case, which is scheduled for trial in January. Leeson has called a Monday hearing.
Laiss's attorneys are claiming the administration’s view should be accorded little weight.

Even past examples of blanket pardons, such as Andrew Johnson’s sweeping clemency after the Civil War, Jimmy Carter’s pardon for Vietnam-era draft dodgers and Joe Biden’s pardon for marijuana offenses relied on more explicit criteria.

Trump's Jan 6 pardons were so sweeping and vague that DOJ now claims they decide who they cover.
There’s no modern precedent — and maybe no historical precedent, either — for a president to delegate his pardon power to subordinates on a pardon this vaguely worded.

It really is amazing that the president has a noticeable an unexplained physical ailment that is disfiguring his right hand and there's no reporting about it. The White House's line is that it's from Trump shaking too many hands! Something is clearly being covered up.

According to a new Economist/YouGov poll, Trump's approval rating is underwater in the majority of states — including 20 states he won last year.
He's flailing on the economy and his party's odds for 2026 are crumbling.
Do not let him convince you he is all powerful.

Don’t forget that *Trump’s own lawyer’s argument* to the Supreme Court in the immunity case was that the check on the President using his immunity to order criminal acts was that those under him would not follow illegal orders. Now it’s a crime for lawmakers to remind servicemembers of that?
The President doesn't want you standing up and speaking out against him, so he's coming after me to intimidate all of us.
But I won't back down — and neither should you.
