Thank god I’m in a blue state. A liberal since my parents voted for Kennedy. Read books to stay sane in this Orange nightmare. Gardening helps too

We all knew Biden was old. But I never worried about his competence during his term. I knew that he had the best interests of the people at heart. What’s stunning is that we are watching the mental decline of the current president in real time, and people are talking about a news anchor’s book. FJT!

An ICE spokesperson attacks Judge Murphy, saying "this judge wants these criminals, these rapists, murderers, out on the streets."
That's a staggering insult to a federal judge trying to ensure that ICE follows his court order — which did NOT bar deportation or detention!

5/ More debunking.
Another of Trump's visual exhibits that the president displayed in the Oval Office for the world to see was not from South Africa at all.
It was "a months-old blog post featuring a photo from the Democratic Republic of Congo."

Bottom line:
This isn’t budget policy, it’s a power grab. It strips judges of their ability to enforce the law and gives government officials a green light to ignore court orders. It’s authoritarian by design and it’s buried in the fine print.

This section creates a dangerous loophole
- If no bond was required, which is common, this bill blocks any federal money from being used to enforce contempt.

“No funds appropriated… may be used to enforce a citation for civil or criminal contempt… unless the court required the posting of security in the form of a bond.”
