What law did they break and, quote the constitution.

For which of the 220 lawsuits?

Perhaps we can start here and work our way back:

This line up is at least all in the ballpark. None of them look like meth heads scrounging for spare change in the WalMart parking lot.

Most of it needed to happen tbh.

That's the honest answer. Trump has chosen not to follow the law or Constitution because he (and many of his followers) think that the end that he is shooting for justifies the process.

But don't act all surprised when folks file lawsuits when the Administration doesn't follow the law or the Constitution.

You forgot Hunter's laptop and Russiagate and Pizzagate. If your response to everything in the world is to sing the same song, al least sing it all!
Perhaps if the Administration followed the law and respected the Constitution, this would not be happening.
If everyone is "stupid", Americans, Canadians, Europeans, Asians, everyone is "stupid" except you and Trump, maybe, just maybe, the problem is actually you and Trump.

“This is hostile and political act by Amazon,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said at a press briefing.

It isn't a hostile act. It's displaying the truth. The White House should be overjoyed that the tariff taxes on Americans are proudly displayed on every invoice.

How else are we to know which products to avoid?

We would absolutely be much better off.

Trump policies have significantly harmed almost all sectors of our economy. I can't really identify a Trump policy that has been good for America.
So taxes in the form of tariffs go up, economic activity tanks, trucking tanks, shipping tanks, oil tanks, farming tanks, retail and US exports tank.

What these people think means "relief" actually means something far worse.
They gonna be under control of secret democrats, like they always are. So get ready!

The guy in the video says Trump has Kevlar lined suits, apparently only in blue though.

So if Trump shows up in anything other than a blue suit, no Kevlar?

I seriously doubt this guy’s claim

Why would a Ukrainian politicians opinion on who the greatest President is matter? I’d rather ask my dog for his opinion first

You don't understand Trump. If politicians in Kiev are saying Trump can be the greatest US president ever if he does something, Trump just might do it. And then there will be a parade for Trump and Trump will lap it up. He will say, "they held a parade for me, the best parade ever."

Complimenting Trump seems to be the only thing Trump understands.

Why?

Because the program is only open to low income earners. The comparison is between kids from low income earning families who take the vouchers and kids from low income earning families who do not. What the voucher would attract among the low earning group are those low income families who already value education and would take the step to do whatever they can to try to improve the odds of getting out of K-12 in a position to go on to college. Those families already are likely to produce kids determined to go on to college at a higher rate than other low income kids. But the difference in outcome would be most pronounced if we are comparing one group of low earners with another.

That kind of differentiation would not likely occur if a state gives vouchers for free or reduced private school tuition to families that can already afford private school tuition. Dividing that group one way or another based on vouchers would not likely assemble a group of high achievers from a group of lower achievers. Both groups (higher earning families with vouchers v. higher earning families without vouchers) likely have higher college attendance already.

What's important is that the statistic being highlighted, whether the kid goes on to college attendance, is not necessarily indicative of whether the kid using a voucher actually got a better K-12 education than a kid who did not. Whether a kid enrolls in college is not necessarily dependent on whether they got a "better" education. The largest factor is the desire to enroll in college versus a different course.

Important to note that the Ohio program, up until recently

1) was only eligible for low income students
2) the kids had to be in the bottom 20% of Ohio schools to be eligible

Even with these limitations, the program made a difference

Perhaps because of these limitations.

Except that that isn’t what they are doing. They pick one case and tell you about it, and then revoke a thousand visas while you are distracted.

How can any thinking and breathing person not see what is going on?
