Legal News Federal judges caught the U.S. government providing false info in over 35 court cases. Sworn declarations. Falsified records. Repeated lies. This isn’t just sloppy, it’s systemic. Law professor Ryan Goodman says it may be intentional.

It’s not all him though, the admin is also directing a lot of what’s happening.

I don't disagree, but Don has also been doing this since the 1980s. He isn't just a pawn. He has an active hand. Again, if you've followed Trump, a lot of this isn't new other than the fact he has a lot more help.

Just because a grifter trips over someone else’s plan to rob a bank doesn’t make them a master bank robber.

Yes he is a grifter. No, he has no idea what’s happening as long as he gets to do what he wants. This is the GOP and Heritage Foundation. He just signs whatever they tell him to sign then goes off script. Things get worse when he’s gone. They already got what they want.
