I miss having a human president.

ICE blasts through door using explosives, armored vehicle & drone—all 3 people in house were U.S. citizens. Agents did not knock or give warning—immediately set off explosives & flew in a drone. Then at least 10 agents who were crouched behind an armored vehicle stormed the house.

the president does not actually have the power to fire a university president or a museum director, but if elites simply roll over under pressure, then effectively he does

“With fear for our democracy, I dissent.” “In sadness, I dissent.” “With deep disillusionment, I dissent.” What’s next?

I strongly agree with Elie's five-alarm-fire take. And I respectfully but firmly disagree with those who think today's disastrous decision will be fairly easy for lawyers to work around.

Make no mistake, the SCOTUS decision about birthright citizenship IS ALSO ABOUT *birthright citizenship.* The Court is using nationwide injunctions as the tail, wagging the dog, to take us back to an Antebellum view of citizenship. That way led to war once. My latest in @thenation.com

President Donald Trump is pressing ahead with plans to slash staff at the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, deliberations that were already in motion before his recent clashes with the top U.S. spy agency over Iran intelligence.

The Justice Department on Friday fired at least three prosecutors involved in U.S. Capitol riot criminal cases, the latest moves by the Trump administration targeting attorneys connected to the massive prosecution of the Jan. 6, 2021, attack. apnews.com/article/jan-...

Here are my top 10 summer dogs of all time!

We’re lighting the I-35W bridge green tonight and tomorrow in honor of Melissa Hortman, who found joy and peace in trees and gardens 🌳

American fashion designer Willy Chavarria starts his show with a performance dedicated to those illegally detained by ICE.

Emolumental: A United Arab Emirates-based fund has bought $100 million worth of digital tokens issued by World Liberty Financial, the crypto venture of U.S. President Donald Trump's family, becoming its largest publicly known investor. www.reuters.com/business/fin...

Tapper writes this without acknowledging that Milk himself served in the US Navy during the Korean War, or that Milk was assassinated while serving honorably in public office

Again, I’d like to encourage the people who think it’s a good idea to embrace a cruel and capricious dictatorship, while making it clear no legal or legislative authority can stop them from ruining ordinary people’s lives, to keep on reading to see what usually happens next.

Posited: it's no coincidence that such contempt for fed district ct judges was shown today (and elsewhere recently) by 6 justices who themselves *never served* as a district ct judge or trial judge of any kind. Pls discuss. @rgoodlaw.bsky.social @dahlialithwick.bsky.social @mjsdc.bsky.social

lol

Trump: "Vladimir Putin made some very nice statements today. Look, he respects our country again ... President Xi respects our country. Kin Jong Un respects."

Charlie Kirk. What a weird guy. 🤣🤣

Eager to soothe Trump’s wounded ego, the Supreme Court ended nationwide injunctions today. Trump is crowing, but this just means we’ll take our smashing wins in 4 district courts and turn them into wins in 94 district courts. People born here are citizens, period.

💯

MAGA hypocrisy.

“We’re the good guys,” I tell myself as a 6-year-old leukemia patient pees his pants in fear. I adjust my black mask and sunglasses in the mirror, making sure to hide my identity. “I am not evil,” I whisper.

Just the right response to today’s outrageous Supreme Court decision letting Trump strip Americans of their birthright citizenship ⬇️

Newsom: The gloves are off. Let’s go. We’re gonna call out the bullshit. And the propaganda. And the weaponization of lies and disinformation on networks like Fox…

The difference between this and Nazi propaganda against Jews is that this is AI-generated.

ICE is now changing tactics and arresting people who have been granted asylum hearings.   This is both a violation of US & international law that demands immediate attention from all New York elected officials & underscores the urgent need for legal service providers to be at all of these cases.

Gift link to a chilling report from Haaretz that everyone should read. Even if only a fraction of this (and some of the paper’s previous detailed reporting on possible war crimes) is true, we should all be deeply saddened and sickened, as I am right now. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

Another Former Trump Lawyer is DISBARRED, "Effective Immediately"! youtu.be/eenUW7ivSbM?...

Our co-founder @markzaidesq.bsky.social is in federal court today, challenging the #Trump admin for revoking his security clearance without due process, and in a clear act of vengeance.

@jaketapper.bsky.social couldn’t help himself but to join in on the military gay bashing.

The Navy named a destroyer after Oscar Peterson in 1943, one year after he died. Pretty sure his family was aware of that honor even if Jake Tapper was not.

Jake Tapper says its alarmist to question Donald Trumps mental acquity

Exactly!

MUST WATCH: Oceanside CA: Militarized DHS (HSI) smashed windows, assault rifles drawn, tossed flashbangs and sent drones into the apartment which had 2 kids inside. They then told neighbors they were going to use tear gas, and they’d probably be exposed. Please share widely. WTF

BOOM: California Gov. Gavin Newsom is suing Fox News and Jesse Watters for defamation, accusing them of airing a manipulated Trump clip to push lies about Newsom’s calls with Trump. The lawsuit seeks $787M—same as Fox’s Dominion settlement.

🎯🏆

I'm saddened by the passing of Rep. Pat Williams, an old friend and dear former colleague. He believed government could be a force for good, and he proved it could be. I'm thinking today of his family and everyone who loved him in his beloved home state of Montana and beyond.

Smart move, and not surprising; the litigators surely knew this was an option and had the amended complaint ready to go.

#TheWAR"................................................................... Whatever happened to going to the Congress re: "WAR"...

How it started vs how its going. This is an excellent development from Ottawa. Canada needs to lead in drone manufacturing in North America and starting a joint defense production industry with Ukraine is an excellent first step to making that happen. #cdnpoli #StandWithCanada
