Trump lapel pin symbolizes all that is wrong with this administration. Government officials are supposed to support and defend the Constitution, not the president. nytimes.com/2025/04/22/sty…

I am glad to see an apparent thief criminally charged, but it’s more than a little ironic that the person entrusted to protect our homeland security can’t even safeguard her own purse.

Good to see another judge block another lawless Trump order targeting another law firm. Every legal challenge by a law firm has been successful. detroitnews.com/story/news/pol…
