Huge news - appeals court rules that a majority of the President’s tariffs are illegal. The President is wreaking havoc on our economy, and he is breaking the law to do it. We must right this ship. We need sane trade policy again.

24 hours later and the Cowboys proved your point.
We are in deep sh*t.
We aren't doing the Constitution anymore. Until someone stops him, he is correct. It shows that laws don't matter if people don't adhere to them.
Look. We in bizarro world and can't find a way out. Nothing makes sense. These folknare creating a society of nationalists to divide the country.
My country is in bad shape. Even if there is a change. We are chock full of nationalists. Do what you gotta do.
Agreed.
Not a ManU fan. I hate seeing great teams collapse this this. I hope they improve for the good of the sport.
Did Liverpool lose to 4th tier? Cuz, wow. 😬
The magnitude of Grimsby Town's win over MUFC, in numbers. (Figures from @priceoffootball.bsky.social)
Pure sicko stuff. Premier League gods lost to a 4th tier team. This weekend, analysts opined that the manager was safe. Not anymore.
Get In !!! Grimsby Town...whatever you are .
Now that's a mascot!
Welp....I hate being cynical, but the Supreme Court will contort the law, likely citing a case from 1823 or so, to give Trump authority over the Fed. Crazy AF.
My favorite big word. Schadenfreude
How random? 😁
Sad. And super- predictable.
God bless those folks.
*Ignoring the fact that the crime emergency is fixtional and that the military should not be deployed for that purpose -- the feds and Guard are nowhere in the rough neighborhoods.
You know 🍊🤡 be cheap.
Dude. They are bored AF. I just saw one at my Metro station playing with a braille sign. There's no emergency. Just wasted money and time. Even if crime were worse, you don’t deploy the military.
And he is destroying structures to control him and creating his own truths.
MAGA will enjoy the short term of just making up their truths. Non-MAGA will not be able to establish facts because of the nonsense in MAGAs brains. The whole thing will not work unless a serious intervention occurs.
Trump wants to question DC's low crime stats. Is this how authoritarian states work? Constantly trying to bend the truth? My fear is that the long-term inability to establish any truth will cripple this country.
I mean. They can't say anything because they ignore the law when it applies to them. They just want to go after others.
This is how you stand up to bullies and aspiring tyrants.
At his Baltimore ICE check-in, Kilmar Abrego Garcia was seized. A father, worker, democracy advocate—his only “crime” was defiance. Trump’s deportation machine thrives on fear. We fight back with fire. #FreeKilmar Read & rebel: open.substack.com/pub/demcastu...
In case anyone is still wondering why Bolton was raided
You are correct. Racism is often used to distract when economic times are bad. Because of him, all of us and his voters are fighting over smaller pieces of the pie, while he increses his share.
Brilliant!!!!
He will waste our money and do anything to distract from him robbing us.
Not happening. Instead, pray that we have need leadership or that US games are moved.
Unless someone get a clue, agreed. We are not in shape.
Dammit Mexiconis also a host.
Clowns
Please forgive me, but....YEAH, where have you been? DUH!!! We can't be naive anymore! We can't believe anything but the worst from this man! Putin has the perfect puppet to end American democracy. Now, let's do something about it.
Ok. I am not angry at Guardsmen. They are a assigned. And people have basic decency. However...he shouldn't be there ...period.
Keep up the pressure. Something has to give.
@wamu.org.web.brid.gy Great Domestic and International Roundups on 1A. It records the U.S. paradigm shift. Hopefully, Americans can effectively fight the worst impulses of the current regime.
This man claims to be Catholic, but betrays every teaching. The U.S. has this new strain of nominal Catholics who only believe in harm.
Christian?!? 😆😆 It prove that the louder you proclaim your religion, the least likely that your actions are consistent with it. He's a sick puppy.
Everything. Damn. Thing. is woke to them. Woke = anything white guys don't like. It's an amoeba that changes form every day.
Bruh...they have been having a summer. Big Summer of Hate.
Huzzah!!!
Thank God that Republicans and white Christian Nationalists alone get to determine gender roles. What would we do without them? Gee, i am sure that there is any scientific, religious, or moral basis for any of it. Oh, wait, there isn't?!? My bad.
"Here legally, engaged in a sanctioned process to determine their eligibility for asylum, they have committed no crime. They are arrested anyway, and the lives they’ve risked to come to the United States are thrown into chaos."
I live in DC.We got an occupier force, so until that's fixed, i don't care.
I feel you. We have to eat more during the day.
Law degrees....who goes to law school to chase folks around the streets with cloth on their faces?
"A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people." —The Declaration of Independence
Wow. This is very true. Now, the devils are on a rampage. Sage advice for today.
One day people are gonna learn to listen to us. When that is, only time will tell. 🤷🏾♂️
Judge Caprio was real example of an honorable American. His empathy should be seen as a model for how we treat others. A great loss.
Tbh...we actually don't talk slavery and American history that much. We should discuss it more. These folk want to silence all talk. While i am here...why are they so focused on black folks? They are other bad histories too. Are they okay with that?
David. We have to stop speaking about crime because it fits into their premise. Let's stick to the narrative that it is bever appropriate to have a large- scale deployment of the military to deal with everyday domestic crime. Yeah, he needs to stay at home.
They keep telling people that, but they would rather believe the lies.
Pence has his issues, but i guess after 🍊🤡 tried to get him killed he finally decided to oppose him. Wild world.
So, the 🍊🤡 about to join law enforcement in the streets tonight. I wish I would see him outside.
It's the open corruption for me. His supporters and everyone are being robbed.
Damn. So, he is definitely going to cancel the elections. As we know by now, his threats are not idle. Like the DC takeover a battle between any 2 countries will be an excuse. Stay woke.
Yes. We have federal agents enforcing minor misdemeanors. The National Guard is have their rime wasted.
Why don't people get that whie he is showing power, he is stealing money?
I don't understand how this helps them. But they seem to be doing it.
ALERT: For the first time in the history of the survey, the Office of Personnel Management is CANCELLING the Federal Employee Viewpoint Survey (FEVS). They don’t want you to know how they’re treating federal workers. I really want to create a shadow FEVS…
Of course, this all BS and not part of an "emergency".
Smoking weed in pubic is NOT legal. The USAO has declined most prosecution tho. You can possess 2 ozs and tranfer 1 oz . Remember DC is a colony so weed is decriminalized.
Yes. They were deployed too.
If they had an Inspector General...but we love corruption now.
Please don't let idiots get in power like the U.S. did. This is awful.
Jasmine Crockett delivers passionate call for Texans to come together
Mexico too. Don't be like that.
Somebody wasn't. We went from optimistic leadership and a call for unity to idiocy and division.
Deploying troops, tanks, and federal police officers into our neighborhoods isn't about safety. It's about sowing fear and chaos — but we won't be intimidated.
Patrick... this has been a week.
Whereas the use of emergency power to control the police department has a narrow legal basis, there is NO legal basis to replace the police chief. We have an Attorney General who doesn't practice basic law. Or ignores it.

This is awesome. There are so many disqualifiers, but toting dead bears in a sports car into Manhattan takes me out. That's a fine display of poor decision making.
Two things. Essentially, the city is finding stuff for the feds to do - like a community volunteer day but with handcuffs. The other thing is that fare evasion was supposed to be a civil Infraction in the District, not criminal. A total waste of American tax dollars.
I want to laugh. But that's where we are.
Remember who blocked their deployment on January 6th. It's not the troops, it's him.
Totally. Things are so bad here. SMH.
You're right. I actually feel for them. But no group photos.
We gotta tell the tourist not to take damn photos.
But RFK Jr. stands there like a dummy.
Also, during the first term, most honorees and talent who performed tributes intended to boycott the event. They would have had the stage to protest him. He avoided it for 4 years.
The President cannot commandeer any local law enforcement. The President does not run the Smithsonian. The monthly BLS jobs report is required by law. Release the Epstein files. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
This is not about crime. It’s about power. (+ distracting from the Epstein file cover-up)
Moore: We were able to see historic drops in violent crime, and never once did I activate the National Guard to do municipal policing. This is not about performance — this is performative. They are now using the military as pawns in this process to feed into this military fetish
A government-sanctioned "truth arbiter" will soon arrive at CBS. Their role will be to ensure that journalists do not criticize this Administration or express views that conflict with its agenda. This is a betrayal—not just of journalistic independence, but of the public trust. 🧵
History and Article IV’s Guarantee Clause makes clear that a state’s governor cannot remove members of the legislature. No governor has ever claimed such power. It runs against the full history of Texas and American democracy as a whole. open.substack.com/pub/democrac...
But I was told by everyone on the right that the only person who could deploy the National Guard (or prevent the deployment of the National Guard) was Nancy Pelosi.
Send in FBI agents.
Were federal troops deployed to Atlanta to stop lawlessness or nah?
Let's be clear. A minority of people think that they have some mandate. We are the majority but we aren't organized. Keep up the fight!
Two things can be true: 1) The President has legal authority over the D.C. police and the D.C. National Guard that he doesn't have *anywhere else* in the country; & 2) Even if this doesn't set a legal precedent, it sets an ominous *political* precedent for pretextually overriding local government.
Let's have positive thoughts that it can happen. It would require a Constitutional amendment, I don't see that happening. Plus, some Dems from other states also meddle in local affairs for dumb things. Hopefully, a sense of democracy and integrity grows to make that happen, but...
DC statehood is now an imperative. No more dicking around. Next Dem majority, get it done immediately.
So, no national guard on January 6th, but definitely on August 11th. Makes total sense.
This is the weakest pretense for this sort of intervention ever. So, the National Guard leave their jobs to stand on corners? It does feel like an autocracy test. Now, what van be done now to stop it?
