Even this Supreme Court didn’t fall for that.
As you sow, so shall you reap.
Trump’s defiance of court rulings is an issue-also governed by the constitution. As is Trumps’s refusal to spend money Congress appropriated & Trumps unilateral imposition of tariffs. I waken every morning wondering what fresh hell awaits.
It does taste like sh*t.
Three of Paxton’s multiple homes were supposed to be his primary residence & not rented. Lock him up? www.cbsnews.com/texas/news/k...
Folks once again need to internalize the term GIGO: garbage in, garbage out.
I almost died (my mom had put off getting me vaccinated). Two hospitalizations, lifelong effects. I don’t recommend it.
Fair point!
Raskin: "When private comments made by federal employees are scrutinized for anti-Trump bias and they can lose their jobs because of it, then we've entered the realm not just of Vladimir Putin but Joseph Stalin."
These unlawful actions make Americans in other countries unsafe.
Trump released a snuff film. It’s all fun & games until it happens to US citizens.
That’s a good idea. This one would be safer to do that with.
And one of my cats turns into a whirling dervish with a halter.
They slip out of the harnesses I’ve tried. I’ve been unwilling to go out of the yard with the harness.
Thanks! I will definitely give them a try, then.
Alexis de Tocqueville's best-known work was his classic study "Democracy in America," analyzing our living standards and system of government during his travels here He noted America's cash bail system was aristocratic horseshit way back in *1835* 190 years ago:
We could use more subject matter experts in media.
What can I wake up and be mad about this day? But here, I’d think the trad wives with sourdough starter in their closets might rise up.
VOA founded by the fed gov’t in 1942 to counter Nazi propaganda, practicing soft diplomacy by broadcasting stories abt democracy in countries where press freedom is nonexistent. The gov’t-funded broadcaster & affiliates reached 420million in 63 languages and 100+ countries each week. wapo.st/45R9B4B
Please let us know if they work!
NEW figures show that 61,226 people are currently in ICE detention — the highest number ever in US history. According to ICE data, 70% of these people have no criminal conviction.
Just mafioso thugs.
I’m positive the majority does.
I’ll have to jump a plane & make a drug run, I guess
“A respected network of hospitals and cancer centers is halting enrollment in clinical trials for children with brain cancer after the federal government said it would no longer provide funding to the group”
Private profit, public expense. It’s been the American way for years.
But you’ll always have Ireland?
However evil you think this is, it’s worse: “The A.I. companies selected to oversee the program would have a strong financial incentive to deny claims. Medicare plans to pay them a share of the savings generated from rejections.”
Thiel is an anti-American eugenicist. Odds are O’Neill is the same.
Tell me.
Former Dairy Queen here. DQ doesn’t pay its workers enough for them to buy cocaine.
Got a sandwich? 😄 I need my Covid vaccine.
Between the GOP’s support for tax fraud & gun crimes, Trump’s pardons of thousands of criminals, his heavy-headed federal troops & his own adjudicated fraud, the modern GOP is more of a crime syndicate than a political party, anyway.
I was shocked to learn on national hotdog day that the *average* American eats 70 hot dogs a year. Someone is getting way more than their share, just sayin. southfloridareporter.com/americans-co....
Blue books were hard for students with large, scrawling, barely legible handwriting, like mine. The ultimate issue was when the professor limited us on space.
Gorsuch might agree.
Can not one journalist ask him about it?
If Lisa Cook can’t serve at the Fed, Ken Paxton can’t serve in the Senate. I’m sure Bondi will be all over this. www.nbcdfw.com/news/local/t...
Good thing the Defense Department is busy fighting culture wars & intent on waging war on American citizens.
Loan applications aren’t public. One *might* be able to piece together residency based on public records.
Of course, darlin’.
I was thinking this about all the golden crap in the oval the other day. He’s paying for real stuff with our money and then displaying the cheap crap while sending the real stuff home for himself. Always assume there’s a scam in his actions and you’ll never be wrong.
Degenerate art rises again.
Also to prevent criminals from posing as police, as these did: www.khou.com/article/news...
It’s a boneheaded idea. Texas would have no Democratic congressmen.
The US Administration is now deleting its internal communications, in brazen violation of the Federal Records Act, in order to conceal its other illegal acts. Those entrusted to enforce our Congress’s laws sit, simply watching this happen, flaccid and impotent.
The people running the show understand this but know they will not be targeted. They don’t care.
They’re mobilizing National Guard troops in 19 red states to send into blue cities. They’re preparing for an occupation. www.foxnews.com/politics/nat...
Even worse: if you have to scan to pay & it doesn’t process due to the poor connection IN THE PARKING GARAGE, you will receive a hefty bill in the mail for evading payment. So, always check to make sure it processes.
Trump already tried once to cling to power via fraud and violence. Everything he has done over the past six months virtually screams that he will do the same thing again, but with far more planning and preparation.
That was one of the most batshit press conferences of Trump's public life. He brandished a photo of Putin and promised to deploy the US military to occupy Chicago, New York, and San Francisco. A sane country would be moving toward impeachment and removal right now.
An adjudicated fraud & sexual abuser is the “chief law enforcement officer.”
Once again, republicans are allowed to talk shit about entire parts of our country and get away with it. This is the president’s son. Replace this with any prominent Democrat and it would be nonstop coverage. It’s more than clear now this is a choice.
Farmers keep voting for fascists. They shall reap what they sowed.
Here comes the prosecutorial revenge tour.
Bloomberg handed his money to consultants. Adams gives directly to voters. Cuts out the middle man.
There must be real consequences for white collar crime.
abc7.com/post/donald-... While forgiven debts fuel a large tax bill for most of us, Trump appears to have managed to pay almost no federal income tax on a $287M default in 2010. He paid no income tax in 10 out of 15 years, starting in 2000, by claiming to lose significantly more than he made.
Every single one of these people are pedophiles. Trump only recently realized the church is good for scamming rubes and protecting pedophiles and is kicking himself that it took this long to come to this conclusion. Worked out well for him so far.
From the Guardian write up about official Israeli databases showing more than 80% of deaths in Gaza were civilians: Since 1989, the only war (as opposed to individual battle) with a higher ratio of civilian deaths to combatants than Gaza was the Rwandan genocide.
Big bad bill is right there.
New from 404 Media: photos we were sent show the aftermath of a National Guard vehicle in DC t-boning a civilian vehicle. The Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) All Terrain Vehicle was previously used in the Afghanistan War. Now bashing peoples' cars in U.S. www.404media.co/a-national-g...
Let Levin say Clinton is a war hero.
Have you seen Mike Pompeo? He s unrecognizable. Ozempic, in his case, I’m sure.
Pulte Homes are crap, too.
I haven’t tried that one. Do you recommend? There are some little holes in the wall that are good but most don’t serve margaritas.
Where’d you end up?
Or imprison them.
And a suit for wrongful imprisonment.
It’s like talking to an 11-year-old boy.
Perfect summary of Musk’s psychotic mental state.
But Bailey is a lunatic in the mold of Patel.
Turns out real work is harder than ginning up culture wars for teevee.
That’s the ticket.
As we approach the 20th Anniversary of the Roberts Court, here is my list of the Top Ten Worst Con Law Cases of his Court. Boy was that a hard list to whittle down and no doubt people will disagree with some omissions but the harm to America is truly awful. www.dorfonlaw.org/2025/08/mour...
Musk is not just a sociopath who despises empathy. He is also a eugenicist. He is undoubtedly celebrating every death.
Ogles is likely another criminal who Trump has refused to investigate. Criminals hang together —or hang apart.
As president, Trump has stolen almost 10,000 times the salary he is foregoing
A man understandably refused to hand over his ID or get out of the car for a bunch of masked thugs who refused to identify themselves. And when he drove away, they opened fire on him. This isn’t how you do any sort of enforcement when your goal is to uphold the law. This is gangsterism.
The U.S. has never lived up to its stated commitment to human rights, but this is an embarrassment. Germany is not less free than El Salvador. Our assessment of a country's human rights record now turns on Trump's relationship with that country. We are the baddies.
Today's federal presence at Governor Newsom's press conference was a clear and brazen message designed to intimidate. The message was: *Regardless* of whether California redistricts to negate Texas gerrymandering, the federal government intends to use force to sway the next election in its favor.
Right now, the Trump administration and Republicans in Congress are quietly creating problems for Social Security so they can later hand it off to their private equity buddies.
Despite WH claims to the contrary, I'm not convinced this is a working meeting or even primarily about Ukraine. I think a deal has likely been negotiated behind the scenes—one that benefits Trump personally and possibly involves a Trump Tower in Moscow (a project Trump has pursued since the 1980s).
Trump can be sure Antoni will lie for him.
Traitorous.
1/ The Trump Administration is reportedly planning to cooperate with Russia in exploiting rare earth minerals in occupied regions of Ukraine. It is also said to be planning to offer Russia the chance to exploit Alaska's mineral resources and to ease aviation sanctions. ⬇️
Trump has always cherry-picked data. But now he's poised to use the power of the federal government to grow his own cherries. www.pbump.net/o/donald-tru...
Money is involved or Perry would not embrace it. Of course the Texas legislature thinks it’s grand while they work to recriminalize any % of THC.
Buried in the regime's political takeover letter of the Smithsonian is the worst bit. Unlike exhibits, which are non-destructive towards primary materials, temporary in nature, and reversible, the foundational collections are irreplacable. They want to be able to throw stuff out.
I cannot emphasize enough that the playbook being used against mRNA vaccines (and vaccines in general) is IDENTICAL to the playbook used to restrict voting rights after the 2020 election: actively sow public distrust, then cite the distrust you sowed as an independent reason for your desired policy
Weirdly this doesn't mention that the woman Trump put in charge of reviewing the Smithsonian is his Florida criminal defense attorney who didn't like some of the museum's exhibits when she visited after the inauguration so she convinced Trump to sign an executive order putting her in charge
I couldn’t get over a Harvard professor pushing Ian Miles Cheong. But—surprisingly—I read the book he wrote with Sunstein & agreed with a fair number of the administrative law principles. The crazy didn’t show (although I knew it was lurking in the shadows).
Next step: buy crypto from Trump, with a pardon on the side.
The official United States statistics on our labor market are now under full control of this hyperpartisan loyalist.
God forbid he visit small town Texas, where gangs of youth drink, eat mushrooms, drag race, & play chicken on the main drag.
Before he took office, President Trump had an informal playbook for how he would take control of D.C. The only questions were which option he would choose and when he would opt to implement it, according to two people briefed.
It’s such a terrible disease.
No, he’s not giving Putin Alaska, but he is giving Putin a huge gift: the legitimacy of touching down on US soil at the invitation of a US president. A reward for the full-scale invasion of a sovereign, democratic country that the United States and its European allies support.
