Trump's DOJ:

Ginning up frivilous failed indictments of perceived "enemies"

Trump Epstein cover up; Transfer of Ghislaine Maxwell to Club Fed

Covering up the murder of a woman killed by ICE in Minneapolis

Pardoning 1,500+ J6 thugs

Pardoned notorious drug traffickers

Unprecedented Resignations
An unraveling Justice Department appears to be coming apart at the seams
In 2025, the DOJ struggled with everything from purges to incompetence to weaponization. In 2026, its collapse seems to be accelerating.

Police arrested volunteers for feeding hungry people in Kansas City after 13 years of doing it without incident. Nearby businesses complained, blamed immigrants, and threatened ICE. Two volunteers were charged with trespassing. Kansas City Food Not Bombs feeds 50–100 people weekly. More cruelty 🤬

Just so you know, I’m part of the problem because I want candidates to promise to defund ICE.

So this is all my fault, guys. Sorry about that!

If you're standing adjacent to front of a vehicle, and you truly think you might be run over, you'd dive/move quickly to the side – you don't shoot the driver. This is true not only in the context of law enforcement training, it's human instinct.

He's lying.

at some point we're gonna have to have a real conversation about why we're still paying federal taxes to a regime that isn't using them to help anyone, but instead is using them to brutalize us

if a Democrat had said “I can’t wait to host the oil companies at my 90,000 square foot golden self-commemorative ballroom that I tore down the White House and solicited $300 million in bribes to build” it would literally be considered the worst scandal and gaffe in human history
REPORTER: The Capital Planning Commission is concerned the 89,000 square foot ballroom is going to dwarf the rest of the rest of the WH. Do you worry about that?

TRUMP: No no. People love the ballroom. We need it. If we would've had the ballroom today, we could've had all the oil companies there.

Ah. So if you don’t count all the jobs lost, the jobs numbers look pretty good.
Hassett: "When you look at jobs numbers & see they're below 100, the below 100 thing isn't as disturbing as in the past bc a lot of it is reduced govt employment & we're deporting illegals. If you account for that, the expected jobs number for a strong month is a lot closer to what we're seeing."

Every day, we're bombarded with the bad news of Trump 2.0. It is exhausting to keep track of each new outrage. That's the clear intent.

The Trump transgressions come so quickly that they distract from one another. And when one is caught in the crossfire, it's hard to address the big picture.

Don't let the daily outrages obscure the big picture.

This is so dangerous. Trump never believed in the Constitution, that was only an act while he was running for president.

If there isn’t an URGENT check on his powers, we are cooked. And every sitting representative and senator, or anyone running for office, needs to be prepared to take this on.

Stephen Colbert on the ICE murder of Renee Nicole Good: “The message from this administration is clear. Only they determine the truth. And when their forces come to your city: obey or die. And if you die, you clearly didn’t obey. This should be an alarm bell for the entire country.”

Shapiro: J.D. Vance is profoundly and pathetically a weak human being, and he does whatever he thinks his boss wants him to do.

What we need right now is not idiotic gaslighting from the sitting VP

He should be ashamed of himself—and he’s not. I think that speaks to the weakness of his character.

Heather Heyer, remember her? She was killed during Trump's 1st term. She became the symbol of resistance. Spike Lee dedicated a film to her. Articles were written, fists were defiantly raised in the air. Here we are 8 yrs later. Another victim & a society suffering from short-term memory loss.
