BREAKING: We're asking the Supreme Court to reject the Trump administration's attempt to revive its discriminatory passport policy. Lower courts were right when they stopped the the State Department from denying transgender, non-binary, and intersex people accurate identification.

NEW: Hawaii's Supreme Court keeps releasing opinions that denounce the U.S. Supreme Court. The latest? A new ruling that requires the police to record all interrogations from now on. The author took it as an opportunity to say Hawaii's court will protect due process—while SCOTUS isn't:

“No one man can terrorize a whole nation, unless we are all his accomplices.” -Edward R. Murrow

18 months ago.

My law firm is currently litigating 63 voting and election cases in 30 states. While the legacy media focuses on other things, Trump and the GOP have launched a wholesale attack on free and fair elections. I started Democracy Docket in 2020 to keep you informed. Subscribe now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Doocy: "So the Democratic position is that illegal immigrants should not have any access to taxpayer-funded health insurance?" Sen. Mark Kelly: "Federal law is that undocumented individuals do not have access to medicare, medicaid, food stamps, or the ACA. That's the law."

Two-thirds of National Park Service employees have been furloughed during the ongoing government shutdown, worsening an already severe staffing shortage. With limited personnel remaining, essential maintenance, law enforcement, and visitor services are significantly reduced.

"True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made.” —FDR, 1944

BREAKING: Trump-appointed US Federal Judge Karin Immergut just blocked Trump for a second time from sending troops to Portland. This comes hours after the Pentagon confirmed 200 members of the California National Guard had been reassigned to Portland. Trump is a loser.

People are making different financial decisions because of the price of groceries.

(Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court declined on Monday to hear Ghislaine Maxwell's bid to overturn her conviction for helping the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein sexually abuse teenage girls, steering clear of a case that continues to hound President Donald Trump ..

Why won’t Trump say Christmas?

If U.S. states have any degree of sovereignty, if there’s any states’ rights at all, it is the right not to be invaded by the armed forces of another U.S. state.

Trump claims prices are low and there is no inflation ahead of “the Holiday season”

My message to Kristi Noem is clear: Get out of Chicago.

Same judge. While Miller rails about judges.

ICE admits that up to 50% of arrests in its Chicago raids are "collateral.” These aren't statistics. They are parents taken from their children, neighbors taken from our communities. When does a "collateral" U.S. citizen child's trauma matter? This isn't law enforcement; it's a campaign of terror.

After a federal court blocked Trump from deploying Oregon’s own National Guard, he responded by sending 300 federalized California Guard members to Oregon early Sunday, according to Gov. Gavin Newsom.

The judge is a woman.

No indication yet from major media that the FBI has any interest whatsoever in investigating this apparent attempted assassination of a well-known judge openly targeted on social media by the far-right activist—Harmeet Dhillon—currently calling herself Assistant Attorney General of the United States

It’s of note that during tonight’s hearing the DoJ didn’t even try to make the case that changing conditions on the ground in Portland warranted the CA National Guard. Instead they relied on legal technicalities. Proving again that what they say in court is different than lies they tell the public.

It's time to believe your eyes.

I read @oliverdarcy.bsky.social's interview with WaPo's Matt Murray and I cannot believe he uttered these words: We’ve made great progress on an ambitious plan to reinvent The Post as the most trusted, accurate news organization in the world, with riveting and relevant information for all Americans.

🚨NEW: Kerry Kennedy has announced Late Show Host Stephen Colbert is the recipient of the 2025 Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Award for his advocacy for free speech and speaking truth to power. REPOST to congratulate Colbert on this honor!

MAJOR BREAKING: In a late-night order, Judge Immergut, a Trump-appointee, has BLOCKED Trump from deploying the National Guard from ANY state or D.C. into Oregon.

They still haven’t found all the missing children from the floods. Why are they more worried about Illinois than about the children in Texas?

New in PN: Trump's invasion "The Trump administration’s war on cities just entered a new, more terrifying phase. What stage of fascism is it when the president defies a court order and sends troops into a city anyway? Because as of Sunday, that’s where we’re at."

I understand this. Please tell me you do, too.

Referring to the abuse visited upon over a thousand girls as a “red herring” is nasty work, you asshole.

Stoke fear. Exploit desperation. Suspend the rule of law. Fan brutality. Every time the stronger brutalize the weak, it’s fundamentally the same playbook. Our duty is to stand up to brutality. Our moral obligation is to protect the vulnerable and hold the powerful accountable.

Stephen Miller when a court decision goes against the Trump admin.

Miller has Fascist Hissy #3 today after another court ruling. This one from a judge appointed by radical left marxist Donald J Trump.

I don’t understand the supposed legal basis for this. DOJ requested a summons—*not* an arrest warrant—under Rule 9 of the FRCrP. Are they going to go back to the magistrate and ask for a warrant, even though Comey hasn’t failed to appear? If not, what’s the exigency for a warrantless arrest?

💯

I think of it like fantasy football. I rely on the journalists, not the owners!

MASSIVE BREAKING: Federal judge has just issued a RESTRAINING ORDER blocking Trump's USE OF THE National Guard in Portland! Keep fighting back against the snowflakes!!
