Trump loyalist Lindsey Halligan faces probe by Florida Bar over actions at DOJ
Jan. 6 rioter pardoned by Trump in Jan. 6 case gets life sentence for child sex crimes
Reminder that a president can't just "announce" a permanent new DHS secretary by fiat; Mullin still has to get confirmed by the Senate. He needs 50 senators to support him (and there's a very good chance he'll get that).
Trump's new DHS pick Markwayne Mullin has some relevant experience with homegrown violent extremism: www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

"We cannot comment on ongoing investigations" is a thing you say to dodge a question at a press conference. If you write it as a quote-tweet, you're intentionally commenting.
βThe deal that the president approved is the absolute worst of all possible worlds..."
βThe law was clear, but it was never enforced. Shortly after the deadline to divest passed, President Trump issued an executive order purportedly granting an extension for TikTok to find a domestic owner and directed his Attorney General not to enforce the law.β

Jeanine Pirro appears to be saying that the Biden autopen investigation is "ongoing." An investigation can technically be "ongoing," but still shelved. Especially when investigators can't even find a relevant criminal statute. www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...
BREAKING: A group that seeks to increase the βreputational cost of corruption in America" sues over TikTok deal they say benefits Trump-backed investors who have "at times personally enriched him.β
Tough to bring a criminal case when you canβt even identify a relevant statute, turns out.

βHeβs not winning these cases. The problem is that heβs figuring out this scheme to use the law as a weapon that kind of cuts the courts out.β

"A man awaiting trial on a murder charge for allegedly killing his daughter's alleged abuser won the Republican nomination for county sheriff in Arkansas, according to the Arkansas secretary of state's office."
"...Mr. Trump has become increasingly erratic in his desire to use the criminal justice system to punish his political adversaries for behavior that comes nowhere close to being criminal." www.nytimes.com/2026/03/04/u...
"In both the autopen and lawmakersβ video cases, veteran prosecutors were skeptical from the outset that there was anything close to sufficient evidence to justify criminal charges..." www.nytimes.com/2026/03/04/u...
This appears to be a reference to Evan Corcoran's testimony, which took place on that Friday. www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...
"Glad to see you all for my first act as Chief Judge. I'm glad they gave me such a light, inconsequential item to start off with, right?"

Trump's $10B suit against his own DOJ "raises the prospect of collusive litigation tactics," tax experts tell a judge, adding that it's "uncertain" if DOJ will "zealously defend the public." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

would love to reanimate the founders just to show them this post
kind of crazy that if you have enough money and don't like what you see in the media, you can just buy up every film studio, news station, and social media app and change it

βItβs impossible for news outlets to resist playing up the immediacy of an exclusive interview with a president in the midst of battle, no matter how pedestrian his comments may be. This tactic allows Trump to be everywhere all at once..." www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
