NEWS: Judge Orders $5 Million Disbursed to E. Jean Carroll After Supreme Court Rejects Trump's Final Appeal Federal Judge Lewis Kaplan signed an order today directing the Clerk of Court to release the full $5 million judgment against Donald Trump, plus accrued interest, from the court's registry.

MAGA is easy enough to fool, so an AI generated voice of Mitch McConnell speaking to John Thune and Scott Jennings is a real possibility. That aside, Americans have the right to know if McConnell is alive and able to work. Right now, McConnell's seat sits empty, constituents unrepresented.

Where’s Mitch?

Solidarity from the Twin Cities to our brave friends in Chicago ❤️‍🔥

I live in the Chicago area and crickets from local media - ICE has never let up, yet this continues. It's been normalized to the point that escalation and violence barely registers outside of the communities affected. This is how fascism spreads.

🚨BREAKING: The Trump administration is threatening to hold back terrorism-prevention funding from states unless they comply with a sweeping set of election demands — escalating President Donald Trump’s ongoing attempt to seize power over elections. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

“I did believe the election was stolen and the rioters were patriots - until I turned off Fox News.”

It is INSANE that Senator Mitch McConnell is virtually brain dead in the hospital, and Republicans are content to leave it that way indefinitely. His wife is in China, just DAYS after he received CPR, so nobody with power of attorney? Something ain't right here

I debated running for office for years because I had an old tax bill (that was paid off in full) but I was worried that my late payment would make me look irresponsible to voters a decade later. Meanwhile, some men will jump at the opportunity to run for office with SA allegations…

DOGE finally collapses…. in what its critics consider a pile of wreckage Just filed ===> youtu.be/rSDNoag1V5o?...

Calistoga, a rustic and scenic town at the north end of the Napa Valley, famous for its mud baths, has rejected a proposed data center on town fair grounds. Residents were concerned about house, water usage, and pollution. #SayNoToDataCenters

We’re not going back like they want us to.

Obama won, yet again. 🏆 He threw a concert, people actually showed up, and had a damn good time.

We need to resign ourselves to hearing/seeing Donald use the words "dumocrat" and "communists" HUNDREDS—if not thousands—of times. That's what people with dementia often do: They latch on to certain words and repeat them.

Some folks here could take notes.

Ali Velshi just gave the most amazing speech on MS Now’s America’s 250th celebration. Uplifting.

What did God unleash on Pharaoh after hail when he was angry? I just want to prepare.

Billionaire Taylor Swift donates MILLIONS to charities before her wedding. Trillionaire Elon Must *takes* millions away for starving children in Africa and otherwise does *nothing* to help anyone but himself. And I see people on here accusing *her* of being "self-indulgent." Excuse me?

Musk demanded proof people died from USAID cuts. He got it — and lost it. open.substack.com/pub/oligarch...

Ummmm, wut?

BREAKING on MS NOW: Dozens of intel officials have started receiving notice of their terminations under Trump's unqualified acting DNI, Bill Pulte. The individuals are officials "who they believe are deep state" and whom leadership claims have not provided complete pictures of available intel.

Worth a read for anyone trying to understand the schism happening in the American Catholic Church/Maga Catholic push. #catholic #SSPX open.substack.com/pub/maxwellk...

Jack Smith: "I think we are facing an attack on the rule of law that is different in kind and scope to anything I've seen in my lifetime"

The government accidentally sent Volume II of Jack Smith’s report to a defense lawyer in another case. lol.

TODAY: Deadline has arrived for Trump Admin & Justice Dept to release more of the Epstein files, under court order in the lawsuit filed by @KatiePhang Crickets on the court docket. Justice Dept has responded to court order, nor have they released more of the files

So has anyone confirmed that Mitch McConnell is alive?

Major Jason Watson wore his Air Force uniform to the Capitol, named 13 service members killed by Trump's illegal strikes, and demanded impeachment. Capitol Police arrested him for it. The criminals who ordered those strikes are still free. The man who told the truth about them isn't. Remember that.

I think they did this with baby formula, too.

It’s like these people don’t actually believe anything

BREAKING on MS NOW: Mike Johnson's latest effort to force through the SAVE America Act to rig elections just failed. The House failed to clear a procedural vote 198-224 on the NDAA largely because the SAVE Act was attached.

Shaking my head at oligarch-controlled mainstream media painting democratic socialists as the new boogeymen while ignoring the fact that it is the only natural reaction to unprecedented crony capitalism and corruption.

A unanimous federal appeals court has blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to eliminate federal limits on fine particulate pollution, commonly known as soot. The court ruled 3-0 that the EPA’s rollback could not move forward, leaving the current protections in place.

First, the White House doesn't date back to July 4, 1776, idiot. It opened on November 1, 1800. Second, the tackiest man in the United States and its president should *not* be the same person. Third, nice inspiration, fascist.

This looks mighty familiar, don’t it?

Thanks to everyone who came out for my book talk about The Fix at Dems of the Desert in Palm Springs.

We have Slaughter and Cook. By a 6–3 vote, SCOTUS overturns Humphrey's Executor and lets Trump fire heads of independent agencies. But by a 5–4 vote, it refuses to let him fire Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p... www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

SCOTUS upholding the firing of the FTC commissioner but not the Federal Reserve board member is such a blatant reveal of how this Supreme Court sides with the interests of capital over consistent jurisprudence and precedent.

There's no sugar-coating Slaughter. It's an enormously important ruling (far more important than the other three decisions #SCOTUS handed down today). It's a huge win for Trump/the executive. And it's going to have massive ramifications for the functioning of the government long after Trump is gone.

Imagine if Republicans had even half the balls of E. Jean Carroll, Stormy Daniels, Christine Blasey Ford, Anita Hill, or the Epstein survivors.

The Supreme Court is about to hand down its final opinions of the term. Some of the most important decisions are still ahead. Here’s a preview of the cases that remain—and what I’ll be watching for as well as what else you need to be aware of this week. joycevance.substack.com/p/the-week-a...

Trump's Great American State Fair is as empty as Trump's jockstrap.

Sam Cooke – "A Change Is Gonna Come" (1964): Perhaps the most iconic civil rights anthem; it was inspired by Cooke’s experience being turned away from a "whites-only" motel. Hold fast, stay loud. A change is gonna come, not because time demands it, but because we refuse to settle for anything less.

BOYCOTT CBS

It’s not just mental health. My VA dental appointment took over a year to schedule. And my MRI was done incorrectly and had to be re-done, postponing my surgery for a year. Stop. Voting. For. Republicans.

New Mexico demands answers! We’ve spent years fighting to get fentanyl off our streets, investing in addiction recovery, and public safety. And to find out that the feds may have been responsible in allowing drugs onto our streets is unimaginable—we are investigating and will hold them accountable!

Who are the 25 men hiding behind Secret Epstein Victim Settlements? open.substack.com/pub/jkbjourn...

In his decision for SCOTUS published this morning, Justice Alito dismissed the idea that the Trump administration would halt all asylum seekers as a mere "hypothetical" not even worth considering.

Colorado Gov Jared Polis (D) released Tina Peters, saying she was remorseful despite obvious evidence to the contrary. “I do show remorse,” Peters said today. “The remorse is that people that should be in prison are not. That's my remorse.”

Do you know how hard it is to get a bipartisan housing bill passed? Congress fought for it. Both sides. Got it done. And Trump just checked out. Didn’t show. We refuse to let this get buried in the news cycle. Americans deserve better than this. #TrumpsHousingCrisis
