American families are worried about losing #FoodStamp benefits. Hundreds of thousands of #FederalWorkers have no idea when they will next be paid. Several #airports have been experiencing delays because of staffing shortages.
The pain of the government #shutdown is growing more acute as it grinds toward the 5-week mark, with #Congress showing little movement toward a resolution. But #Trump has been attending to other matters.

In a brazen display of defiance, #Trump’s #DOJ filed papers less than two hours before the 5PM hearing, telling Judge James E. #Boasberg that there was no reason for anyone to come to court because the administration was not going to provide any further information about the #deportation flights.

Again & again since #Trump returned to the White House, #SCOTUS’ conservative majority has blessed his boundary-pushing policies….
But on Wednesday, the justices will consider for the first time whether to say “no” to Trump….
At issue is the legality of his…use of emergency powers to impose sweeping #tariffs on nearly every US trading partner. The outcome of the case could significantly affect the global #economy….

Special counsel to appeal judge’s dismissal of classified documents case against Donald #Trump -AP #JackSmith #legal
#Trump is not my President, he is an evil dictator and my enemy
Instead of bowing to the crown, I’ll smash it off his head 
I overpaid significantly for some put options on Trump's meme stock and I'm feeling pretty good about it now.
Former special counsel #JackSmith wanted to file a motion to have #FarRight #Trump appointed US District Judge #AileenCannon disqualified from overseeing the Mar-a-Lago #ClassifiedDocuments case against Trump, according to a new book by Carol D. Leonnig & Aaron C. Davis.
But he hit a brick wall & felt unable to escalate the situation.
The book, "#Injustice," details the #criminal cases against Trump.
"Earlier this year, Popular Information broke the news that Extremity Care – a company that sells bandages to Medicare for thousands of dollars per square inch – donated $5 million to MAGA Inc., President Trump’s super PAC, on February 24. Six days later, Trump blasted a pending Biden administration rule that would have barred Medicare from covering Extremity Care’s products."

This person could have had influence over Trump.

#Trump says he 'won't be extorted' by #Democrats seeking #healthcare for the people
The government #shutdown is poised to become the longest ever this week as #Republicans continue to refuse to negotiate with #Democrats. Millions of people could lose #FoodAid benefits, #health #care subsidies are set to expire & there are few real talks between the parties over how to end it.

A pastor was pulled over for looking lost. A 72-year-old was marched out in his bathrobe due to mistaken identity. Memphis’ mayor welcomed the federal law enforcement surge, but some residents say they feel targeted just going about their lives.

The U.S. government shutdown could become longest ever as Trump says he "won’t be extorted" by Democrats.
@AssociatedPress reports: "Millions of people stand to lose food aid benefits, health care subsidies are set to expire and there are few real talks between the parties over how to end it."
The perfect candidate to step in for Biden will be the one who is confident looking out over the massive crowd gathered for his or her ascension and saying:
“And to my Republican friends… [restrained catcalls & boos] …to my Republican friends, my party and I welcome the fight ahead! And I urge you, please, please—do not do what we have done; stick with Trump!”

On Tuesday #Trump will hold a “crime” rally in a notorious white supremacist stronghold.

Trump is completely incoherent when talking about one of his signature policies.
Meanwhile, the press is hectoring #KamalaHarris over her "price controls."
WaPo's run one opinion piece about tariffs in the last six months. It was headlined, "How #Trump taught #Biden to love tariffs."
They've run a grand total of one opinion piece this year about the central policy proposal of his campaign, rounding up and deporting 15 million people.
