That's MantisX.com. Watching these MAGA Republican senators and Congress members over the weekend shows try to justify Donald Trump's unlawful orders and Donald Trump's unlawful behavior.
It just goes to show you there's no depths to their depravity. They will justify anything for their cult leader.
I want to give you some key exhibits here to show you what went down. For example, MAGA Republican Senator Tom Cotton justifying Donald Trump terminating the inspectors general from the various agencies and departments, many of whom Donald Trump appointed during the first Trump administration.
These are the watchdogs who are supposed to guard over crimes, fraud, waste, mismanagement. And now apparently the MAGA Republicans in the Senate and the House think there should be no guardrails at all.
Trump should do whatever he wants. Here, watch this.
I've talked to, I've heard of some, from some of your GOP colleagues who are concerned about this saying it didn't give the proper notification, even if ultimately it would be. The notice wasn't there.
And as President Trump signaling, he's just going to observe which laws he wants to and not others. Well, Shannon, time and time again, the Supreme Court has said that Congress can't impose restrictions on the president's power to remove officers.
In President Trump's first term, he removed the director of the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau. Despite limitations on the president's constitutional power to remove officers, that was litigated up to the Supreme Court.
And the president won. So ultimately, these inspectors, General, serve at the pleasure of the president.
He wants new people in there. He wants people focused on getting out waste and fraud and abuse and reforming these agencies.
He has a right to get in there who he wants.

Do you think he will? Next up, I want to share with you MAGA Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, also justifying anything, essentially, saying, yeah, Donald Trump should be able to fire the inspector's general, despite the fact that there is a law that quite literally prevents Trump from doing it. The law states that Donald Trump would have to provide 30 days notice to the House of Representatives and the Senate prior to a termination of the inspectors general.
And in that notice, give a very detailed reasons why there's a termination with specific instances, what the inspectors general did to justify a termination. Now, if you are a senator or a House of Representatives member, you are a co-equal branch, co-equal.
And our founders expected you to protect your turf, not with these MAGA Republicans. Watch this.
The law says that 30 days before a president fires an inspector general, which of course is an internal watchdog for government agencies, he must tell Congress, tell you why. That didn't happen.
He broke the law. Yeah, I think, you know, he should have done that.
But the question is, is it okay for him to put people in place that he thinks can carry out his agenda? Yeah, he won the election. What do you expect him to do? Just leave everybody in place in Washington before he got elected? This makes perfect sense to me.
Get new people. He feels like the government hasn't worked very well for the American people.
These watchdog folks did a pretty lousy job. He wants some new eyes on Washington.
That makes sense to me. So as you see, folks, there is no law, no anything that they actually care about at all.
In my opinion, they're fine with dictatorship, authoritarianism. Speaking of which, here's Tom Homan, Donald Trump's border czar.
And here he's asked about these raids that are taking place in schools, mass deportation raids in elementary schools, high schools, middle schools that we're now learning about across the country.

And what Tom Homan says here, Donald Trump's borders are as well.

They may be MS-13.

They may be gang members, these people.

Here, play this clip. To avoid arrest, what criminals are hiding in schools? Middle schools, elementary schools.
You're going to go into those? How many MS-13 members are at age 14 to 17? Many of them. So, look, if it's the National Security Threat, Public Safety Threat, and what you need to understand is that case-by-case, name another agency, another law enforcement agency that has those type of requirements that they can't walk into a school or or doctor's office or on a medical campus no other agencies have those standards these are well-trained officers with a lot of discretion and when it comes to the sense of location there's still going to be supervised review so it's not like it's an open open uh uh issue but ice officers should have discretion to decide if a national security threat or public safety threats in one of these facilities, then there should be an option of them to make the arrest.
But someday you could go into those schools and grab people who are just in the country illegally. On a case by case basis, depending who they are, what the circumstances are.
Look, we all agree that gang members should be deported, prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. That was the Biden policy.
Donald Trump killed a bipartisan border deal that would have provided more funding to cops, more funding to border patrol agents to deal with this. They killed it because they wanted to say that there's this emergency and that there's all of this chaos.
By the way, border crossings were down under President Biden. Objective data.
We still care about that at the Midas Touch Network. Just as low, if not lower, than they were under Trump's first term.
Trump's border crossings down the lowest in the Trump term, April 2020, because of COVID. Otherwise, Biden had lower border crossings than Trump at the end of the Biden administration.
I just, I got to show you this, and perhaps it's me being a little bit petty, but this is a Latino who voted for Trump, saying that he's against Trump's anti-immigration rhetoric and his mass deportation, but he still was rooting for Trump, even though he doesn't like mass deportations and he may get deported. Here, watch this.
You don't support the anti-immigrant rhetoric. I'm not supporting the anti-immigrant action.
Do you support his mass deportations? No, it's not human. Are you afraid that you could be deported in this mass deportation? I'm not afraid.
I'm not afraid. How good is that feeling of fresh, clean teeth? Now, I only used to get that true feeling twice a year after I went to the dentist.

You're going to have to explain that one. You're going to have to go down to the depths of psychiatry to explain that one, pathology.
Going back to this, MAGA Republican Senator J.D. Vance.
Here he justifies the pardoning and commutations of January 6th insurrectionists, many who tried to kill police officers. And J.D.
Vann says, look, violence against police officers is not justified, but he has a but. And if you're law enforcement and you're watching this, but, but, but, but there may be sometimes if it helps Trump, but here, play this clip.
He has used an elect an electro shock shock weapon against a policeman who was dragged out of the defensive line by plunging it into the officer's neck he was in prison sentenced to 12 years seven months he got a pardon ronald mackabee hit a cop while wearing reinforced brass knuckle gloves and he held one down on the ground as other rioters assailed the officer for over 20 seconds causing a concussion. If you stand with law enforcement, how can you call these people unjustly imprisoned? Margaret, you're separating.
There's an important issue here. There's what the people actually did on January the 6th, and we're not saying that everybody did everything perfectly.
And then what did Merrick Garland's Department of Justice do in unjustly prosecuting well over a thousand Americans in a way that was politically motivated? Is violence like that against a police officer ever justified? Violence against a police officer is not justified, but that doesn't mean that you should have Merrick Garland's weaponized Department of Justice expose you to incredibly unfair process. Hell, I mean, how pathetic is that? Then as part of this interview with J.D.
Vance on Face the Nation, Margaret Brennan did a good job in this interview. She said, okay, well, your campaign promise was lowering prices.
Are you going to do that, J.D.? You're going to lower the prices? And what's J.D.'s response? J.D. goes, we've done a lot.
And she's like, what? I don't see any executive orders. And JD goes, it's going to take time.
We need time. It's going to take time.
Here, play the clip. You campaigned on lowering prices for consumers.
We've seen all of these executive orders. Which one lowers prices? We have done a lot.
And there have been a number of executive orders that have caused already jobs to start coming back into our country which is a core part of lowering prices. More capital investment more job creation in our economy is one of the things that's going to drive down prices for all consumers but also raise wages so that people can afford to buy the things that they need.
If you look at our slate of executive orders. No Margaret prices are going to come down but it's going to take a little bit of time, right? The president has been president for all of five days.
I think that in those five days, he's accomplished more than Joe Biden did in four years. It's been an incredible breakneck pace of activity.
We're going to work with Congress. We're, of course, going to have more executive orders, and we're going to try the way that you lower prices is that you encourage more capital investment into our country.
And yes. Oh, so now the goalposts are changing because Donald Trump said it was going to happen on day one, right away, instantly.
Just so we all know. I mean, here's what Trump said about that.
Play this clip. Starting the day I take the oath of office, I will rapidly drive prices down and we will make America affordable again.
We're going to make it affordable again. Oh, but I guess just like peace in Ukraine, that's now pushed some indefinite timeline in the future.
Lowering prices, that's pushed to some indefinite timeline in the future. But like Donald Trump has time to sell meme coins.
Isn't that what y'all wanted? Meme coins? And Donald Trump has time to post weird AI images of himself. Also, you have J.D.
Vance attacking the Conference of Catholic Bishops. And J.D.
Vance says that, oh, the fact that they're out there trying to protect LGBTQ and marginalized community and migrant rights, that really what they're doing is that they're greedy and they're money hungry, the Conference of Catholic Bishops. And J.D.
Vance goes, he converted to Catholicism. He goes, as a devote Catholic, I am ashamed of these groups that are saying that we need to show mercy.
Here, play this clip. The U.S.
Conference of Catholic Bishops this week condemned some of the executive orders signed by President Trump, specifically those allowing immigration and customs enforcement to enter churches and to enter schools. Do you personally support the idea of conducting a raid or enforcement action in a church service at a school? Well, let me let me address this.
Of course, if you have a person who is convicted of a violent crime, whether they're an illegal immigrant or a non illegal immigrant, you have to go and get that person to protect the public safety. That's not unique to immigration.
But let me just address this particular issue, Margaret, because as a practicing Catholic, I was actually heartbroken by that statement. And I think that the U.S.
Conference of Catholic Bishops needs to actually look in the mirror a little bit and recognize that when they receive over $100 million to help resettle illegal immigrants, are they worried about humanitarian concerns or are they actually worried about their bottom line and

finally right here um jd vance has asked okay well um you've always said that big tech needs

to be broken up and big tech needs to be stopped but you had all the big tech broligarchs there

after they gave money to you and donald trump hundreds of millions of dollars they're there so

are you you're with them now and watch jd vance's word selling u.s conference of catholic bishops

Thank you. They gave money to you and Donald Trump, hundreds of millions of dollars.
They're there. So you're with them now? And watch J.D.
Vance's word selling. U.S.
Conference of Catholic Bishops this week condemned some of the executive orders signed by President Trump, specifically those allowing immigration and customs enforcement to enter churches and to enter schools. Do you personally support the idea of conducting a raid or enforcement action in a church service at a school? Well, let me address this.
Of course, if you have a person who is convicted of a violent crime, whether they're an illegal immigrant or a non-illegal immigrant, you have to go and get that person to protect the public's safety. That's not unique to immigration.
But let me just address this particular issue, Margaret, because as a practicing Catholic, I was actually heartbroken by that statement. And I think that the U.S.
Conference of Catholic Bishops needs to actually look in the mirror a little bit and recognize that when they receive over $100 million to help resettle illegal immigrants, are they worried about humanitarian concerns or are they actually worried about their bottom line? And folks, I want to highlight these videos. I could have showed you more.
You get the point. Because these are promises broken by MAGA Republicans and they're not looking out for the interests of we the people objectively.
Their focus is on the broligarchs. Their focus is on authoritarianism.
Their focus is on breaking our constitution. And we need to highlight what they're doing here.
