There's three votes for anything on the supreme court. If trump said "I'm the god-king of arrakis" he'd get three votes and a lengthy opinion about the long history and tradition of english common law with regards to the spice melange

So sad. Mark was the chronicler of the Presidency… if you wanted to know how many times GWB played golf, for example, or how many books Obama read aloud at the Easter Egg roll, you asked him. We never met but we had many exchanges on the Other Site and I’m glad he knew how much I valued his work.

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

Scott Bessent is a clown. A total embarrassment. The importer of record pays the tariffs—not China. And those costs get passed down to you in the form of higher prices. You all get that, right? It’s not rocket science.
