Coupled with their stated plans to outlaw transness entirely as "pornographic," this is their way to forcibly detransition all trans people who don't go back into the closet Genocidal, full stop

Not one but two sex scandals at Trumpâs Labor Dept - one involving the Labor Secty herself AND a second one involving her husband. Wow.

I know weâre all just used to Trump living in his Mad King era, but this isnât how this is supposed to work at all. The entire reason the Constitution puts this power in Congress is so that whether or not we go into a war of choice isnât just one manâs decision.

Thousands of institutions abandoned programs, ended or rewrote scholarships, closed down clubs and publications, all in pre-emptive compliance. And you know why? Mostly because they wanted to do it if they thought they could blame someone else for it.

The 2-month-old baby in ICE detention was so sick he was hospitalized and unresponsive last night. Despite that, today, he and his entire family were deported. Now we donât know where they are or if the baby is receiving healthcare.

Another thing to add to the Dem platform: all of these contracts were plainly procured through fraud, not one of them will be honored, and all culpable parties will be prosecuted. This isn't a "radical" demand, it's the bare minimum required to re-establish the rule of law.

In 1854, after watching the federal government deploy 2000 federal troops and spend $40,000 sending Anthony Burns back into slavery, Boston's Amos Adams Lawrence said âwe went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.â

UCLA said no to Trump's abusive demands, went to court, and the govt is backing off. Harvard said no to Trump's abusive demands, went to court, and the govt is left sputtering. Columbia, Cornell, and Northwestern giving in was a big mistake. If only there were lessons against appeasing fascists.

Repeat after me: An executive order is not a royal edict; it is not law. It is a direction to the executive branch as to how to carry out the law. Also: Key parts of Trump's last EO on elections have been stopped by federal courts, ruling that the President has no role to play in federal elections

A Reuters photographer captured this image of a page from Pam Bondi's "burn book," which she used to counter any questions from Democratic lawmakers during an unhinged hearing today. It looks like the DOJ monitored members of Congressâs searches of the unredacted Epstein files. Just wow.

I can't think of an attorney general ever showing this much open contempt for Congress before. Not only would most of them think this kind of conduct was beneath them, they'd have known that the Judiciary Committee chair, whatever the party, would never stand for clownish antics like this.

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

Again, the first best choice to understand the Trump Administration is to think like the basic conspiracy theorist and go from there. To everyone wondering why Paul Weiss settled: well, Brad Karp, their chairman was in the Epstein Files, and did not want it come out.

There was a time leading up to Obergefell where judges knew they were about to say their piece in the apex of a historical moment and wrote accordingly. This reminds me of that time, with the existential threat turned up to 11.
