Trump’s trying to erase birthright citizenship with the stroke of a pen. But judges appointed by Reagan, Bush, Obama, and Biden all agreed: Trump’s executive order is blatantly unconstitutional. We are a nation of laws, not royal decrees.

Crushingly sad to learn of the passing of Gerry Connolly, my friend, colleague and fierce champion of federal workers, public integrity and the people of Virginia (though he never surrendered his hearty south Boston accent). May his memory be a blessing to us all.

Massive win in court as judge blocks Trump’s wrecking ball which he directed at U.S. Department of Education. The court found the president had no right to dismantle a federal agency, its programs or its staff as authorized and funded by Congress. We’re the lawmaking power, Don—get it straight.
