The contrast could not be clearer or more consequential. Vice President Kamala Harris has spent her entire career working for the people. Indeed, when she stood up in court as a prosecutor, she said five words each and every time: "Kamala Harris for the people." Donald Trump has never been motivated by a desire to serve others. It's clear that he pursued the presidency in the name of self-enrichment and self-aggrandizement. And he is again seeing the presidency for this same reasons, AND to stay

The Assassination Attempt of Donald Trump

Political violence is never the answer to our nation's problems, disagreements, and divisions. Political violence was wrong when Donald Trump perpetrated it on January 6th, and it was wrong when it was perpetrated against him at his rally in Pennsylvania. There is no answer yet as to why a registered Republican decided to arm himself with an assault rifle and do what he did. But one thing is clear - if we don't do better, then things will only get worse. Then, Glenn talks about Rudy Giuliani. Within

In an opinion by Chief Justice John Roberts, the Supreme Court disregards the plain language of a law by which Congress criminalized conduct that "obstructs, influences, or impedes any official proceeding." Roberts and the majority then delivers a gift to Donald Trump and several dozen of his insurrectionists. Importantly, in a dissenting opinion, Justice Amy Coney Barrett, joined by justices Kagan and Sotomayor, call Roberts and the majority out for their flawed analysis, saying it "is like using a

Judge Merchan Modifies Trump's New York Gag Order

2024/06/28

Judge Jaun Merchan modified the gag order he had placed on Donald Trump. The gag order no longer prohibits Trump from talking about witnesses and jurors in his case. However, it remains in effect to protect court staff, prosecutors and their staff, and their respective family members. Needless to say, it's concerning that the witnesses and jurors are now unprotected from Trump's reckless, dangerous, and often violence-inducing rhetoric. However, there is a silver lining. And it will come on July

At the end of the hearing, instead of ruling on the motion, Judge Cannon ordered supplemental briefs to be filed, injecting further unnecessary delay into the case.

This is an important step in the direction of fulfilling the long-dormant American promise that no one is above the law.
