@chrisinparis.bsky.social It is a breezy 108º here currently, how are you folks on the other side of the pond doing?

Once again, there NEVER was any "deal", nor valid "MOU", or anything else. That was never possible with Trump. Just idiots in the press repeating administration bullshit. The entire world are the losers in this equation.

This is because the constitution that Dan Patrick references is of the Confederate States of America.

How did this dim bulb become in charge of anything?

The better question here is who the heck is doing "crowd estimates"? I agree it is likely not big, but why?

Just watched White House Down. Again. The destruction to the White House and grounds cinematically is nothing compared to what Trump has done in reality.

Why?

We are also the only country without universal healthcare. We are such a backward nation, run by selfish, greedy people who only care about the money they can wring from the system—not us.

This is such corrupt horseshit, it is amazing, by even today's standards.

Given that they're made in the same factory as the Volvos & are both subsidiaries/part of the same PRC company, but Volvo got a waiver to continue to sell & thereby manufacture, I expect that if someone digs hard enough they'll find this was done to remove a true competitor as a favor for Musk.

Compare Alito's description of Trump's racist statements (on the left) to Justice Kagan's anthology of Trump's racist statements (on the right). These are passages from this morning's opinions in Mullin v. Doe.

The very first job of the D. trifecta in 2029 is to expand the Supreme Court & file every case possible that allows for a reveiw/reversal of the fire sale of rights that the corrupt 6 have perpetrated. The other first jobs include voting rights, DC statehood and much more progressive taxation.

Congress has the power to do pretty much whatever it wants with the Supreme Court. It can expand the membership of the court, and it can punish it in several ways too. We simply need to fill that Congress with a Democratic majority that has the will to use that power.

More from Justice Sotomayor's dissent: "The consequences of today’s decision are predictable. More people will die. More people will attempt to cross the border illegally, and some will make it while others will not."

Thomas, concurring, votes for preemption ... but also suggests that the entire federal law that regulates pesticides is unconstitutional for at least three reasons. So he thinks the law is unconstitutional but will still wield it to preempt state-law claims? www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

25 years ago, a Michigan district court embraced a bizarre theory about the limits on Congress's power under the Spending Clause—one that was quickly repudiated. On Tuesday, the Supreme Court's six Republican appointees quietly revived it while making it harder to enforce an array of federal rights:

Needless to say, I am extremely concerned about this.

A better lead than the original.

Wow, not good.

nothing like a couple ballpark seats/armrest to the spine

WTF? Why?

great example of how impossible it is to do policy work right now, with apologies to all my wonderful policy-wonk friends and mutuals

Today is the 61st anniversary of the arrival of Britain’s first Black pub landlord

Seconded.

The one thing about the illegal way in which the Trump admin waged the Iran war is that it leaves them with no "stabbed in the back" narrative. They unleashed massive military power and openly threatened a "back to the stone age" approach, and it just failed for all the reasons critics predicted.

i live in darializa's district. i cannot begin to describe the frequency and ugliness of the attacks against her. that she has overcome that and beaten a very powerful incumbent is an objectively incredible thing

Yes. This is so incredibly true.

With Milli Vanilli unwilling to show, apparently Kash Patel's pathetic girlfriend will be performing for the Trump250. How did she get billing above Lara Trump?

I’ve not seen any similar photos despite looking a lot of different places.

Lol, and.....?

Like I said: admitting to liking Elon Musk must become socially equivalent to admitting you pleasure yourself to a picture of Pol Pot on a nightly basis. This creature is not redeemable, and anyone who defends his genocidal insanity is complicit.

Shouldn't be the dumbest person on the planet either.🤷‍♀️

Fetterman is a piece of shit disgrace to humanity.

Isn't it, though! Yet plausable Trump: hey, E-L, I heard you have an new drug for weight loss (for someone else, I'm perfectly fit). E-L: yeah, seems to work great in lab mice. Trump: can I have? E-L: well now... Trump: that merger w/ Bayer? E-L: here's your pill. Don't take on full stomach.

Yes! And the instructions are written by the inscrutable IKEA instruction peoples.

What in the living.....

That’s exactly how they roll.

ugh-scotus guts individual liability under RLUIPA (&basically says all spending clause statutes don't provide for individual liability) so tally today: victims of human rights violations & beneficiaries of public benefits programs can't sue. oil companies can. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...
