Every year on Memorial Day, I share this video of French caretakers who take sand from Omaha Beach in Normandy, and scrub them into the letters to give them the gold coloring. They do this for all 9,386 US soldiers who died. France also gave us this land as American soil.

To be clear: the Trump administration is trying to send migrants to Libya specifically because of their gross human rights record - not in spite of it. They want people to be afraid to come here, so they’re sending them to the worst places they can find.

This is an absolutely rip-roaring opinion by three judges all originally appointed by GOP presidents (two Trump, one Reagan). Among other things, they find that GOP lawmakers intentionally discriminated against Black Alabamians when they passed a map that did not create a second Black district.

With all the talk of product shortages , I think it should be said that products will first find their way to densely populated areas first and everywhere else, last This certainly will hurt all those red counties. How they react to their shelves being everything will define the midterms

Last week the Trump administration fired another 8 immigration judges. One judge was fired in the middle of an asylum hearing and had to walk off the bench before the hearing was over! There are now nearly 50 FEWER immigration judges than when Trump took office!
