"His decision, announced this weekend, to send high-powered US delegation to the island, apparently uninvited, is already backfiring," wrote #JeffreyGettleman and #MayaTekeli. "The admin tried to present it as a friendly trip, saying that #UshaVance, wife of VP #JDVance, would attend a dogsled race this week with one of their sons and that #MichaelWaltz, the #NationalSecurityAviser, would tour an American #military base."

#Trump's #MAGA allies on Sat had 2 #conservative #SupremeCourt justices in their crosshairs after a fed judge put a stop to the President's plans to deport individuals the administration says are members of a gang.

#InnerCityPress reported on Saturday that Chief Judge #Boasberg said, "AUSA, you must inform your client immediately. Any plane in the air must be returned to the US. You must make sure this is complied with immediately."

The financial markets are reacting poorly to President #DonaldTrump's weekend imposition of stiff #trade tariffs against #Canada, #Mexico and #China — and a #CNN expert was left dumbfounded as he watched it unfold live.

The #DowJones, #NASDAQ, and #SP500 all opened down on Monday, and continued to plummet following #Trump's sweeping #tariffs that most experts agree have started a #TradeWar with at least two firm U.S. allies

How things work in the #American system is like this: the #Congress controls the money. The president spends the money, as directed by the Congress. And the courts make sure everyone obeys the law.

#DonaldTrump did something this week that could upend all of that, to put it extremely mildly, turning everything that we believe to be true about how things work in the American system into irrelevancy.
