I remember this. It was a scandal that rocked the national news!

Another disastrous decision by the far-right Supreme Court. Ending TPS for hundreds of thousands of Syrian and Haitian immigrants won't make America safer. It will destabilize families, hurt employers, and force people back to countries plagued by violence and humanitarian crises.

lol does this article really not mention that Clarence Thomas was in house counsel for Monsanto, the Roundup manufacturer?

BREAKING: The Supreme Court rules 6-3 in favor of the Trump admin on Temporary Protected Status, blocking the lawsuit on jurisdictional grounds, allowing DHS to strip over 350,000 people of legal status even though they utterly failed to follow the required legal procedures.

The Supreme Court on Thursday allowed the Trump administration to end legal protections for migrants fleeing violence and natural disaster in Haiti and Syria, exposing hundreds of thousands more people to potential deportation. https://to.pbs.org/4p7anT3

“Abortion bans don’t stop abortions, but they do kill people. They kill women, in higher numbers, but in many of the same, preventable ways, that these women were dying before. All of which was completely and utterly predictable.” - @amylittlefield.bsky.social www.thenation.com/article/soci...

4 years since the dreadful Supreme Court Dobbs decision turned back the clock 50 years and eroded reproductive freedom and women’s rights. Texans are dying from pregnancy complications and struggling to access basic health care. Restoring abortion rights must be a top priority in a new Congress.

Dems have to run on this hard. Do not let the RFK types try to spin what his own party just signed off on here. Actual Monsanto, the comic book villain of Adbusters days, was shielded from liability over poisoning Americans. I don't care if it's slopulism: this Supreme Court wants you dead.

Ossoff: I don’t think many people are tuning in because he’s lost it. But more importantly, what we’re seeing is how destabilized he is by his global humiliation in the Middle East, which he cannot deny or lie away. He has cemented his place in history in disgrace.

Hunter speaks! Dems need to listen. 🙌🔥

THIS 👇 HERE IS TRUE......👍🏼

So nothing happens to the Trump donor who got $15 million in tax dollars to wreck the reflecting pond, but if a taxpayer touches a piece of the floating debris from the disaster scene they get 10 years in prison. Trump’s dystopian America.

There’s a lot to unpack with the Iran negotiations, but here are the big takeaways: Kushner is there to work out the best deal for his own business interests, not the best deal for the U.S. “He is a fundamentally corrupted actor in these negotiations.” - Chris Murphy 1/2

Trump’s Reflecting Pool fiasco is no longer just a laughing matter Trump’s desperate attempts to blame “vandals” deserve mockery, but arrests over the weekend are another abuse of federal power.

What the heck is going on here? ABC7 is my local station. It isn’t a partisan network, it’s where millions of Angelenos get local news and alerts. So why is the FCC putting its broadcast license under an unusually early review years before it was due? @agomezfcc.bsky.social

We need more of this in the USA… “NYC Mayor Mandani reveals a plan to allocate $122 million to hire an additional 1,000 teachers by 2027. This must be why they say socialism is so horrible. Rather than funding continuous foreign wars, tax funds are being redirected toward our educational system.”

PREACH

Ossoff: Because in our time, what those who build ballrooms and monuments to themselves, who rake in billions through foreign princes while the people's savings vanish, along with their hospitals, what they hate the most is when the people try to hold them accountable at the polls.

To George and Laura, Bill and Hillary — we're grateful for your friendship, counsel, and devotion to this country. And to Joe and Jill, thank you for being on this journey with us.

Ossoff: The president has been humiliated on the world stage. Many Americans are increasingly concerned about his stability and his capacity for the office. It’s deeply distressing to Americans to see a president so incompetent attempting and failing to represent the nation.

House Oversight and Judiciary investigators just visited Federal Prison Camp Bryan — the prison where Ghislaine Maxwell is housed. Reps.

France is leading the way by enacting a total ban on harmful chemical treatments to protect our essential pollinators. Bees are the backbone of global agriculture and food security. Let us hope that more countries follow this incredible example.

Trump is going after public officials who oppose him while rewarding allies, convicted fraudsters, and January 6 rioters with pardons and favors funded by taxpayers. That’s not justice — it’s political retribution. We won’t be intimidated, and we won’t be silent.

RIP Mark Rothko. You would have loved how the hydrogen peroxide bleach is only turning the Reflecting Pool blue around the perimeter

Oh, so they have NOTHING nothing

As the government raids “antifa groups” in Minneapolis with the SAME charges levied against myself and the rest of the Broadview Six, we need to be asking how they got this indictment. And as charges (hopefully) get dropped, we must remember the process is the punishment.
