Trump is off his legal rocker! The Trump Administration’s latest and wildest legal stunt, this time suing ALL of the judges in Maryland federal district court because they’re holding the government's feet to the fire. youtu.be/Vr3KNqdBOVw?...

Chris Murphy: "Trump & the Republicans are trying to engineer the most massive transfer of wealth from the poor & middle class to the wealthy in history of the country...that's super unpopular. So how do you pass it? You can only pass it if you also destroy democracy & the means of accountability"

This is what the right truly fears

Both Senators Blumenthal and Whitehouse make a point of order that deliberative process and attorney client privileges don't apply in judicial nominee hearings. Whitehouse points that Bove is using the privileges selectively, and doesn't even have the right to invoke it.

Thanks for your vote of confidence…I guess?! Unlike you, I’d actually be focused on the American people—the issues they’re facing, making sure folks have healthcare, and consulting with Congress before dropping bombs on another country.

A reminder that the @nytimes.com told New Yorkers to not rank Mamdani at all, & instead endorsed former hedge fund manager Whitney Tilson. Tilson sits at a whopping .8%. Corporate media trust is dead. They killed themselves by failing to fulfill their promise of holding the powerful accountable.

I didn't watch the whole thing. I've just seen video clips of Bove and Pam Bondi in the hearings. I'd comment more on what I saw, but, "They're both full of shit," pretty much captures how I felt while watching.

We are posting this placard at all of our offices and asking our union contract farms to post as well. We encourage our friends to put up similar placards at their business as immigration agents do not have the right to go on private property without permission.

“On Monday, June 23, ICE's detention level was — on paper at least — at over 140% capacity, since Congress last allocated 41,500 detainee beds for the agency, the figures show.” www.cbsnews.com/news/ice-rec...

Nobel Peace Prize, my arse! An administration that bullies – and has no skill or desire for diplomacy – will always see military power as the only way to 'solve' problems.
