@Acyn That’s funny. I was thinking that should be Democrat’s main platform for fighting the rich Republicans and their mega rich corporate donors.

@RpsAgainstTrump Once again…every accusation is a confession. They are total hypocrites. The lack of self awareness is mind boggling.

Ted Cruz: Democrats say Trump is so bad that we’re justified doing anything, trampling the Constitution, trampling any semblance of democracy in America, as long as it keeps the Democrats in power.

With a bunch of confused kids around him, Trump weaved whatever this is this morning. The entire world is being yanked around by this demented old man’s pathologies. “And unfortunately, bad things happened. It was a rigged election. And I said, well, I'll do it again. I had the ultimate fall. I did so well. And I had the ultimate fall. And we won in the landslide. We won every single swing state. We won the popular vote. We won everything you can win. We won 87% of the counties in the United States. And I ended up with the Olympics. And I ended up with the World Cup. And very important, maybe the most important, is we have the 250th anniversary. On June 14th, we're going to have the UFC. And the biggest fight they've ever done by far-- hardest ticket I've ever been involved with. And they're building a 5,000-seat stadium right in the front of-- right by the front door of the White House. And then they're going to have anywhere from 75 to 100,000 people in the park right past the White House with eight tremendous screens. And then we have Roger Penske. So that's Dana White’s dream. What that is, it's going to be amazing. And then we have Roger Penske who's going to have a big championship indie around the Capitol. And the indie racers. And he's been trying to get in here for 25 years. And he said, I came to Washington exactly 121 times. And I was never able to get in. I came once to see you. And we had it done in half an hour. And he's fantastic. He's won 20 Indianapolis 500. Can believe that? Other countries. And I say it all the time. I gave him the presidential medal freedom. Like I gave to Gary, too, because of his career. And then Roger, on his 18th, I called him. I said, come on. I want to give you the president. You won 18. Japan, Germany, all these countries. They spend billions and billions of dollars. They know-- it's very hard for them to win. They don't win very much. They spend all that money. And Roger just wins it all the time. So I gave it to him on the 8th win. And since then, he's won. That was four years ago. Since then, he's won two more. So he's going to be here with the Indy cars. And it's going to be the biggest race, maybe ever. They're going to be circling the Capitol. We have Pennsylvania Avenue closed down. And I said, you like the course. He said, I love the course. I said, pick the best course. We'll get it for you. Don't go the easy way. Pick the best roads. I don't care. It doesn't matter. And he picked a purpose. He said, as good as you can get. And unfortunately, he picked the most important race in the city, which is a little tougher. But we got it done for him quickly. And that's going to be in August. So we have a lot of really exciting things happening.”

The MAGA crowd in Washington has decided that since Europeans don’t sufficiently appreciate Trump, the American bases on the continent must go. This is the strategic reasoning of a man who burns down his own kitchen. American bases in Europe were never a favour. They are the logistical spine of every war the United States fights east of Gibraltar. Ramstein moves the cargo, Aviano launches the jets, Rota services the ships. Without them the Pentagon does not project power into the Middle East. It projects PowerPoint. The fantasy assumes the alternative is aircraft carriers gliding majestically into the Persian Gulf. That era is ending. A modern carrier is a thirteen-billion-dollar trophy that can be reduced to scrap by a couple of hundred cheap missiles fired from the Iranian coast. China noticed. The other fantasy is that America simply fights from home. Picture the alternative: twenty thousand transatlantic sorties shuttling spare parts, munitions, fuel bladders, mechanics and replacement pilots from Norfolk and Dover to wherever the war happens to be. A C-17 burns through roughly 35,000 dollars of fuel every hour it flies, and the round trip from the American east coast to the Gulf is the better part of a day. Multiply that by every bolt, every missile, every spare engine. The war becomes a sustained airborne traffic jam with the bill arriving by the second. So you need land, specifically land near the war. Modern combat aircraft are not Spitfires you fuel up and send off with a wave. An F-35 demands an entire Walmart of spare parts, a small city of technicians, climate-controlled hangars and a supply chain stretching halfway round the planet. Drones need operators, networks, satellites and a steady diet of components no carrier can store. Modern war arrives by container ship and lives in a warehouse. Close the bases, and Washington loses the warehouses. Lose the warehouses, and the next confrontation with Iran is either fought by phone or fought from Kansas with a flight schedule that bankrupts the Treasury before the first missile lands. MAGA thinks shutting Ramstein punishes Europe. It punishes America. Europe will be inconvenienced. America will be unarmed. And so, after a thousand insults, a thousand sneers, a thousand late-night posts about freeloading allies, Europe is quietly drafting the politest letter in diplomatic history. It thanks America for its service. It wishes the troops a safe journey home. It suggests, with great warmth, that Washington might now turn its attention to its neighbours in Latin America, where a fading superpower can busy itself with whatever a fading superpower busies itself with. Spain had its century. Britain had its empire. The Soviets had their parades. Each ended the same way: as a shadow of itself, with the historians left to argue, volume after volume, about precisely when the rot set in and why nobody noticed in time. America is welcome to join them on the shelf.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ If you like what you read, please follow Gandalv on Substack: @gandalv" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">substack.com/@gandalv

THE TIMELINE 📌 April 28: All 6 conservative justices— John Roberts, Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett— showed up to a white-tie dinner at the White House honoring King Charles. 📌 Next morning: The Voting Rights Act was gutted in a 6-3 decision. Same six. Same vote.

Donald Trump casually admits he merged two massive federal departments without signing a single legal document. He handed total control of American energy to his billionaire cronies with zero oversight. The White House operates like a corrupt mafia bypassing all laws.

BREAKING: SOUNDS OF SILENCE — Senate hearing goes deadly quiet as Trump’s federal judicial nominees REFUSE to admit third term is illegal. . Donald Trump is nominating people to lifetime federal judgeships who won't confirm that he can't run for a third term when they come before the Senate for their approval hearings. Let that sink in. Senator Chris Coons of Delaware asked what should be the easiest constitutional law question in American history at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing this week. He asked Trump's judicial nominees about the 22nd Amendment. The first nominee, John Marck, said that his career had been in criminal prosecution and that he hadn't had occasion to use that particular amendment. A federal judicial nominee. Unfamiliar with the 22nd Amendment. Seeking a lifetime appointment to interpret the Constitution. Another candidate eventually offered that it "deals with the two-term limitation." Correct. Gold star. Coons then asked the simple follow-up: is President Trump eligible to run for president again in 2028? Marck's response was a masterpiece of evasion: "Without considering all the facts and looking at everything, depending on what the situation is, this to me strikes as more of a hypothetical." Coons was patient. He walked Marck through it like a kindergarten teacher explaining why you can't eat paste. Has Trump been elected president twice? "President Trump has been certified the President of the United States two times." Is he eligible to run for a third term? "I would have to review the actual wording of it." A man seeking a lifetime federal judgeship needs to review the actual wording. Of the 22nd Amendment. Which is 61 words long. Coons then turned to the full panel and asked if anyone — anyone — was willing to simply state that the Constitution of the United States bars Trump from seeking a third term. A heartbreakingly long silence ensued. He asked again. Anyone willing to apply the Constitution by its plain language? More ominous silence. Nobody. Not one of Trump's judicial nominees would say out loud, under oath, in a Senate hearing, that the 22nd Amendment means what it plainly says. This isn't ignorance. These are lawyers. They know what the 22nd Amendment says. They know Trump has been talking openly about a third term. And they calculated — correctly, based on what happens to people who cross this president — that telling the constitutional truth was more dangerous than staying silent. The frightening thing is that these are the people who will be interpreting your rights for the next 30 years. Please like and share this post if you think federal judges should be willing to say the Constitution means what it says — even when the president doesn't want to hear it.

ICE tackle man working to pavement—sit on his neck with full body weight over 2 minutes. "He probably can't breathe!" man yells. "Get off him!" "I'm an American citizen... why is nobody helping? Say something!" Agents pepper spray a mother and daughter—so neighbors fired back spraying water with garden hoses. Incident occurred in Bell Gardens, California.

@TheJFreakinC If you don’t support this sort of ICE action, People need to turn out in record numbers to vote in the midterm. We’re talking about Hungary-like numbers, i.e. 80% turnout. These clowns need to be reined in and Mike Johnson isn’t the one to do it.

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents were caught on video illegally detaining a U.S. citizen in Holtsville, Long Island. They boxed his car in, after racially profiling him, and demanded that he prove his citizenship… without a warrant, without probable cause, and without any lawful basis to stop him in the first place. In the video, the man sums up the situation saying: “this is some bullshit… I’m good to go, right?” And he’s right to question it, because what’s happening here isn’t a routine stop, it’s a constitutional violation. Under the Fourth Amendment, law enforcement cannot stop or detain someone without reasonable suspicion of a crime. Boxing in a car is not casual, it’s a seizure, which means they needed legal justification. They didn’t have one. And then they demanded proof of citizenship from a man who is a U.S. citizen, on U.S. soil, based on nothing more than how he looked. That’s racial profiling, and it a violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment. Federal agents do not get to target people based on race or ethnicity, and then force them to prove they belong here. Then, after detaining him and violating his rights, they just walk away toward their cars like nothing happened. No accountability, no acknowledgment that they had just unlawfully seized someone. Because that’s what ICE agents do everyday.
