@MLGW Today? Isn’t this a bit tone deaf? It’s over 💯 °. If you don’t want to consider compassion, the PR fallout will be shameful and frankly deserved.
@smerconish Absolutely not! And, I absolutely understand the rage towards insurance companies. They are greedy and corrupt and those who pay in have no recourse. Hence, bad acts.
Obama: "Values every president here today, as different as we are, has tried our best to uphold. Values that John McCain and Mitt Romney believed in no less than I did."
My statement:
“Today, the U.S. Supreme Court stood up for the rule of law and Americans everywhere. Its message was simple: Presidents are powerful, but our Constitution is more powerful still. In America, only Congress can impose taxes on the American people.
The US Supreme Court gave us everything we asked for in our legal case. Everything.
I’m grateful for the leadership of the Liberty Justice Center, and in particular for the brilliant advocacy by its chair, Sara Albrecht, who led the fight when others wouldn’t and was dauntless in its defense of our constitutional order. I'm also grateful to the five small business owners who stood up against these unjust, unconstitutional taxes. By taking a stand, they have delivered crucial relief to tens of thousands of businesses and millions of consumers across the country.
Finally, I lack the words to properly thank my brilliant Milbank team, especially Colleen Roh Sinzdak and Sami Ilagan, who worked with me day and night for many months to craft the winning argument.
This case has always been about the presidency, not any one president. It has always been about separation of powers, and not the politics of the moment. I'm gratified to see our Supreme Court, which has been the bedrock of our government for 250 years, protect our most fundamental values.
Racist. Deranged. Humiliating to our country. The fact that we have decided to pretend to this is normal every day is a moral abomination. Have we any shame?
And every day an entire generation is being told it is “Christian” to support this. God have mercy on us.
THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, THE LEADER OF THE FREE WORLD, THE COMMANDER OF THE GREATEST MILITARY ON EARTH, HAS BEEN BROKEN AND CRUSHED BY A LONE HECKLER. CLEAN UP IN AISLE 47!!
Trading Ja Morant Is the Dumbest Thing the Grizzlies Could Do Right Now
Ja Morant is a generational talent, and this franchise would do well not to fumble him. https://t.co/BsDjKRCSLb
Don’t be surprised if, since Trump’s agenda was soundly rejected today in these elections, he begins a full court press toward authoritarianism, starting with the 2026 Midterms. We have to be resolute and courageous if that happens. The emperor is naked, and we must say so.
