NEW: Almost as soon as the Supreme Court released its ruling limiting the ability of judges to block President Donald Trump's plan to end birthright citizenship, challengers brought new legal claims seeking the same result by a different means. More details: www.nbcnews.com/politics/sup...

In my coverage of Trump 2.0 litigation so far, the state AGs largely haven't been seeking nationwide injunctions, and I've already covered one notable nationwide class action injunction on passports for transgender Americans. It won't affect everything and it can be worked around in some cases.

I can't tell if it's because I'm too NYC focused but does it feel like the news cycle spent more time crashing out on the fact that NYC picked a brown Muslim dude as is primary candidate then it did on a right wing extremist who shot 2 Minnesota legislators killing one, her husband and dog?

Just reading about how Tom Petty, in his final concert before he passed away in 2017, honored trans activist Alexis Arquette and voiced his support for LGBTQIA+ people generally. People often say "separate the art from the artist," but it's really something when artists are genuinely good people.

Weird how all these journalists who hyperventilate over a mayoral candidate who calls himself a democratic socialist can't bring themselves to care about the fascist in the White House.

A lot of very smart commentators -- specifically, older white men -- are obsessed with age to an annoying degree. If you like what a candidate stands for, just say so. If you think a candidate is bad, ditto. But, I promise you, you're not going to regain your youth by preening about "gerontocracy."

I know a lot of people are really mad right now, but, yes, refusing to vote for Kamala Harris was a terrible, unforgivable mistake.

I'm not mad at people who criticize Democrats. I'm not mad at people who criticized the last few Democratic presidential nominees. Criticize anyone you want; that's your right. I'm mad at people who couldn't bring themselves to make the obvious choice in 2016 and 2024. You had no excuse.

Trump starting new wars in his second term was just as obvious as Trump ramping up drone strikes in his first (yes, he ordered significantly more drone strikes in 4 years than Obama did in 8). Yet people on the left and right were willfully blind to this fact, even though we warned them.

Raise your hand if you haven't committed any war crimes today.

The Clash will always be my favorite band, but between Death, the MC5, and the Ramones, punk rock was born in America.

The conservative movement is lying about basically every empirical "debate" of our time, from climate change to voter fraud to vaccines. Why is it so impossible for reactionary centrists to contemplate the possibility they're lying about trans healthcare too?

Joe Strummer said that hip-hop picked up where punk left off and ran full-steam ahead.
