Our work is not done… 📌 Sinclair Broadcast Group is still refusing to air Jimmy Kimmel Live! on its ABC affiliates nationwide. Folks, you know what to do. Google Sinclair-owned networks and channels in your city and act accordingly.

Voters in southwest Arizona are highly likely to elect a new Democratic House member in a special election today. That would-be lawmaker plans to become the 218th and clinching supporter of a bipartisan effort to force public disclosure of federal investigative files related to Jeffrey Epstein.

Catastrophic health & environmental conditions from Israel’s genocide are increasing the incidence of life-threatening rare illnesses in Gaza's children, Ghada Abu Muaileq reports. “If we cannot even provide medicine for common pediatric illnesses, what hope do we have for treating rare syndromes?”

Compared to the sacking of Gaza, subjugation under Israel seems a benign option for Palestinians. But Israel’s Jewish population is less inclined to integration than ever

On his first day back in office, President Trump signed an executive order ending birthright citizenship, directly violating the oath he made to uphold and defend the Constitution. We took him to court and got the policy blocked, and our work continues to stop the order for good.

Who is Lindsey Halligan? - Former Florida insurance lawyer turned Trump defense attorney - Filed the special master lawsuit that delayed Trump’s classified docs case - Convinced Trump to sign an executive order putting her in charge of reviewing Smithsonian bc she didn’t like some of the exhibits

"Yes, Yes, to Ta-Nehisi Coates, you listen."

Goddamn. You can’t even have principles and make ice cream because people are too afraid of Trump

Some more shameful shit from the Democratic Party

I would honestly primary that guy my freaking self, if I wanted to give up my career and run for Congress, which I don't really.

Establishment media corporations’ capitulation to the Trump administration has alienated Democrats — and opened the door for a new crop of independent partisan outlets hoping to capitalize on left-of-center audiences’ discontent. www.semafor.com/article/09/2...

On Monday, the Supreme Court’s Republican appointees gave the Republican president new powers to fire Democratic appointees of federal agencies — via the shadow docket and contrary to a 90-year-old precedent. That’s allowed now, though, apparently. For Trump, at least. Law Dork:

Sigh. Just to emphasize, again, undocumented immigrants do not get free healthcare, and certainly not $1 trillion of it!

A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to restore $500 million in federal grant funding that it froze at the University of California, Los Angeles.

one of the nastier games the supreme court likes to play with the shadow docket is "we haven't formally overturned this but we've functionally allowed republicans to ignore it while stringently applying it to dems" I'm sure they'll find new ways to play the game but this makes it harder

And remove appellate jurisdiction from SCOTUS is something Congress can do but since scotus is fine letting a president usurp congressional power, then the next Dem president can issue an EO stripping them of appellate jurisdiction.

Have you met the Dems? Any real opposition party would lead with "We're going to expand the judiciary with lib dems who believe in the rule of law and the constitution." And here are the votes we need to do that in 2026. Have Schumer or Hakeem said anything like that?

“While the court did impose a $10,000 sanction on the attorney who filed two appellate briefs containing fake citations, it also declined to award attorneys’ fees or costs to the opposing counsel, because of counsel’s failure to report the fake citations to the court or even to detect them.”

Unless the country finds some way to deal with the corruption of the federal judiciary I wonder whether there will be any way to undo that damage.

Many commentators have pointed out that the Trump administration, and Republicans in Congress, are behaving as if they intend to see that Democrats never hold power in Washington again. I think you can also lump the Republican S Ct justices into that bucket.

Notably, the second question presented would have implications even for the "Fed carve out" exception that the court suggested exists. (I know, Neil, that's precedent! No anarchy here!)

BREAKING: SCOTUS will hear a case over whether it should overrule Humphrey's Executor — in a shadow docket order that also allows Trump's firing of Rebecca Slaughter as an FTC commissioner to take effect while the appeal is considered, which should not be allowed under Humphrey's Executor.

🚨 BREAKING: In a 6-3 decision, SCOTUS allows Trump to dismiss the last Democratic member of the Federal Trade Commission, signaling a potential overturn of a 90-year-old ruling protecting independent agencies from executive control.

BREAKING NEWS: The Supreme Court has agreed to hear a rush appeal that will decide whether President Donald Trump acted lawfully as he has wrested control of independent federal agencies by firing the board members who led them: https://cnn.it/47VLPWl

The Supreme Court must deny the Trump administration's attempt to block a lower court order requiring the release of foreign aid Congress already approved. The Impoundment Control Act is clear: Congress has the power of the purse, NOT the president.

A federal judge on Monday granted a request by Danish offshore wind developer Orsted to restart work on the nearly finished Revolution Wind project, which President Donald Trump's administration halted last month.

Should add, despite the title and initial appearances, it's very much science fiction - and very good indeed.

Flores on the U.S.’s drug war claims: " The argument from the US totally falls apart because Venezuela happens to be a country that produces zero cocaine, it grows zero coca leaf, and it's somehow now being blamed for this spread of cocaine throughout the hemisphere."

Leftover Thai hot-and-sour soup for lunch today. It’s a hardship, I know.

Excellent outcome for the case! It’s notable that this began before Trump took office, although it got worse after. When the government alleges someone is connected to terrorists, it can be extremely hard to get them to back down.

"I worry even more, potentially, about smaller outlets like this one and other valuable liberal magazines and websites that perhaps can’t spend millions of dollars to defend themselves from Trump’s lawsuits." trib.al/2894a5U

Have you got a plan to remove Hakeem and Chuck from their leadership positions? That would be helpful. These are not war time Captains.
