Musk’s recent post calling Alexander Vindman a “traitor” and saying he will “pay the price” should be the line that causes the remaining people of goodwill on Twitter to leave. See my commentary on Substack: roberthubbell.substack.com/p/raising-ou...

Will Bunch provides the analysis that is missing from the NYTimes lengthy article detailing Musk’s actions. “ You can’t stop a coup until you call it for what it is.” Essential reading in The Philadelphia Inquirer by Will Bunch.

Trump's “presidential memo” [not an executive order] to pay TSA is here: bit.ly/4vbrDZU. It authorizes DHS head Markwayne Mullin to use funds with "a reasonable and logical nexus to TSA operations." That test is a legal fiction for which Trump offers no authority.

Trump cannot make, change, or repeal laws by executive order. Therefore, he cannot ban mail ballots or require proof of citizenship by executive order. True, he can try, but courts can, will, and have invalidated Trump’s efforts to regulate federal elections by executive order. bit.ly/3MKhZfp

Some commentators claimed the tariff decision was an illusory victory, a victory for big business, or that conservative justices would not apply the same rationale against Trump if he attempts to assert presidential power over federal elections. We need to learn how to take a win. bit.ly/4aGSd3r

Good news to start our weekend! The Supreme Court invalidated Trump’s illegal tariffs in an opinion that reasserts the separation of powers, the primacy of the Constitution, and the role of Congress in making law. Clear-cut victories are rare; we should celebrate! bit.ly/3MHGKsz

Democrats are gleeful over the prospect of billionaires, creeps, and white supremacist Cabinet members explaining to voters why Trump’s Ponzi-scheme-RICO-enterprise administration is helping Americans who are struggling to buy groceries, as they fear that AI will replace their jobs. bit.ly/4kL4bxu

Trump’s handlers know that a blue wave is swelling in the distance, timed to crash on the Republican Party on November 3, 2026. In panic mode, they are “spitballing” ideas to convince voters that things aren’t as bad as they seem. bit.ly/4kGIy1q

Anderson Cooper quit CBS’s 60 Minutes with a gracious note explaining that he wanted to spend more time with his kids—when we all know he quit because he could not abide the editorial control over 60 Minutes by Trump's financial backers and Bari Weiss. bit.ly/46RYyb6

On President’s Day 2026, we have every reason to be hopeful, but no reason to be complacent. Trump is weak and unpopular. Pro-democracy forces are winning more than they are losing. That formula spells inevitable defeat for Trump and his MAGA agenda. bit.ly/4rkGL4L

The administration took the next logical step in the stunning capitulation of social media giants to Trump. It has convinced them to rat on Americans who criticize ICE. Without a peep, major tech companies have complied. See NYTimes, www.nytimes.com/2026/02/13/t... (Gift link) bit.ly/4rSKZQV
