Hakeem Jeffries, likely the next Speaker, has started an aggressive psychological war against President Trump and MAGA and Trump clearly sees it. Jeffries keeps provoking Trump through speeches, videos, and social media as conservative media keeps reacting. So far, the strategy looks very effective.

Good. More evidence that Trump's enablers are cracking.

With 86% of seats declared, looks like Labour's final rate should settle at around -1500, not as bad as last year's rate of loss, but the fifth worst result for a government in the post-war period. These -1500 losses will represent 30% of all seats contested, Labour's worst figure on that metric.

"ProPublica’s tally of kids harmed by tear gas or pepper spray is nearly four times the number cited in a recent congressional report that relied on news stories, yet it is likely still a vast undercount."

Oh, bless your little heart. People don't think the Supreme Court is comprised of "political actors" because it makes "unpopular" decisions. They think SCOTUS is composed of "political actors" because it decides cases along predictable political lines & makes decisions that are popular with Trump.

Sure looks like Republicans redrew the map in Tennessee to stop Memphis from sending Justin J. Pearson to Congress, who is/was poised to win the primary after fighting like hell against Elon Musk's methane-spewing data centre monstrosities in South Memphis. Craven, desperate and racist as hell.

Sen. Mark Kelly: "If you say something that the president or this administration does not like, they're going to come after you. The president is trying to silence us, and I can't think of anything that's more un-American."

This is not particularly surprising from Alito. He’s the circuit justice here, acting—in essence—until the full court can act. Both he and Thomas have issued administrative stays in the past until the full court can rule in similar circumstances, regardless of their ultimate votes on the matters.
