    Trump’s approval is at a record low. Some Trump allies are struggling in competitive races. And now the president's hand-picked loyalist won’t rule out DOJ blocking states from certifying election results—a power it doesn’t have. Coincidence?

    The Trump admin cut down 400+ trees at East Potomac golf course despite a judge’s order, then Trump attacked the judge for enforcing it. The law is not an obstacle to bulldoze. Trump and the officials carrying out his orders must face accountability.
