Pam Bondi, before you lose still more cases maybe you should go down to Florida and try to explain to T what a Const. is and that you cannot make up power it gave to a different branch (and be sure to include Steve).

Trump has no interest in conservative legal theories or judges with independent values, he just wants blind support for his power

it would be great if the brilliant Ukranian strategy in Russia convinced the Trump govt that it was riding the wrong horse... but that would require a functioning natl security operation and expert leaders, not just right wing TV retreads

I was glad to be in the protest of the Muslim ban 8 years ago. Now, repeating his attack on countries Trump dislikes it is just one of multiple disasters amid the push to enact a senseless bill that would kill poor people to give huge tax breaks to the most wealthy.

The Supreme Court has allowed a power hungry Pres. who loves to defy settled law to change the law on his own & govern by executive orders for long periods of time, creating legal chaos. thehill.com/opinion/judici…

Elon, you need to think seriously about coalitions if your party is to make a difference. You are right about the hunger for another choice but 3rd parties face huge barriers. Negotiate genl elect. trades where neither America party or Dems have a chance on their own for change

The pathetic place to GOP has arrived at. This is supposed to be Christian? Idaho Attorney general: ‘Everyone is Welcome Here’ sign cannot be displayed in Idaho schools.
