Everyone please stop reposting the “600 federal judges have voted to impeach Roberts”. It’s from a satire site and it’s also obviously not credible.
Illinois State Senator Karina Villa sprang into action to protect her community from ICE raids, alerting neighbors to their rights and chasing off masked agents. This is how you stand up to authoritarianism. We should all be inspired by Sen. Villa's courage.
President Donald Trump got a massive red-ink fact check on Tuesday by California Gov. Gavin Newsom's press office.

Wow, first time I've seen him underwater in this poll with white people. He has negative disapproval across every possible cohort.
Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide. As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire. End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

In case you were curious how things were going, Kash “See you in Valhalla” Patel went full on looney tunes Colonel Jessep during a Senate hearing today.
MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace unleashed on FBI Director Kash Patel for what she called a "sick, twisted and cruel" way of destroying the FBI.
Justice Sonia Sotomayor appeared to rebuke calls to target “hate speech” in an apparent swipe at Attorney General Pam Bondi. “Every time I listen to a lawyer-trained representative saying we should criminalize free speech in some way, I think to myself, that law school failed,” said Sotomayor.

A series of missteps taken by FBI Director Kash Patel in the immediate aftermath of conservative activist Charlie Kirk's slaying could haunt the federal government's prosecution of Kirk's killer, according to a former federal prosecutor.
When I’ve said Trump’s moral development is at the stage of a toddler’s I wasn’t trying to be funny. This is from Kohlberg’s Stages Of Moral Development. (BTW, Kohlberg found only 10-15% of people reach the most advanced level of moral reasoning, as it requires the capacity for abstract thinking)
Trump has spent his entire presidency trying to take it away from everyone and threatening or suing those who don’t capitulate. What do you think of that, Mr. Washington?
President Trump warns an Australian reporter that he’s hurting Australia because he asked him about his business activity: You are hurting Australia very much right now. They want to get along with me. Your leader is coming to see me soon, I'm going to tell him about you.
Reporter: What do you make of Bondi saying she is going to go after hate speech, a lot of your allies say hate speech is free speech. Trump: Probably go after people like you, you treat me unfairly, you have hate in your heart. ABC paid me $16 million for a form of hate speech,

The Attorney General doesn’t know what the First Amendment covers.
"Trump's tariffs have created a drop in sales of various agricultural exports, including soybeans. Data shows the US is losing out on billions of dollars in purchases from China, which spent over $3 billion on soybeans in the second quarter of 2024. So far China has spent $0 this year."

Dreamer daughter says mother died after ICE confiscated her medicine and deported them
When I wrote this in January, people said I was an alarmist. Today, the New York Times reported that “Senior officials in the federal government have taken over a conservative media entity to talk about a crackdown on anti-conservative thought and speech.” Yes, a crackdown on thought and speech.
Idiots, if you do crap like this no one - and I mean no one - is going to feel bad for you when you get charged with crimes. Stop it. Now.
Florida's state attorney general announced Monday that law enforcement should stop arresting or prosecuting people who openly carry firearms in public, while Democrats in the state argue this could further harm tourism.
Top Trump officials used Charlie Kirk’s death to threaten liberal groups, making unsubstantiated claims about a “domestic terror” movement. nyti.ms/3ViXyGZ
That would be a neat trick given (a) there is no formal Antifa entity and (b) federal law doesn’t have a mechanism for designating domestic terror organizations.

Q: Do you think it would've been fitting to lower the flags to half staff when Melissa Hortman, the Minnesota House Speaker, was gunned down by an assassin? TRUMP: I'm not familiar. The who?

So I'm wondering today how all the lawyers at firms that caved to Trump—and also Sullivan & Cromwell, which is representing him on his criminal appeal—are feeling about how things are going? Are your salaries and draws worth it? buff.ly/figcCyz

Trump doesn’t know a darned thing about football.
Next he will threaten to withhold funding from states who don’t vote his candidate in 2026.
Not surprising coming from the guy whose company was convicted of tax fraud and who was found to have committed business fraud.
Boo-hoo. 😂😂😂 You reap what you sow. You voted for him.
“We have a very muscular civil society in the United States. We have come this far toward authoritarianism primarily because civil society has not pushed back. Stephen Miller and Trump are much bolder now because we let them do it. Power is being surrendered.” www.csmonitor.com/USA/Politics...
We're witnessing the most aggressive, fanatical crackdown on free speech in my lifetime. The speed and breadth of government censorship and private sector and nonprofit capitulation has been astonishing. As has the lack of urgency/silence from people who've long claimed to care about this stuff.
