"No other country does birthright citizenship," Trump told reporters and the public yesterday.
Not a single reporter told him he was wrong – that 32 other countries have it – even though all of the reporters knew that, or they should be fired for not knowing it.

The executive order effectively transforms these jobs—which include “epidemiologist,” “health scientist” and “toxicologist”—into “at-will” positions, meaning people in such roles can be readily fired without cause.

This is bad. At least 9 county prosecutors in pro-Trump areas of Virginia have now openly declared that they won't enforce the assault weapons ban that the Dem state legislature recently passed.

Reminder that the Trump regime is still blowing up suspected “drug boats” — killing 185 people since September.
But no judge or jury has found these boats were trafficking drugs. We're taking Trump's word for it.
