One might have thought that last November, when Missourians voted to enshrine “reproductive freedom" in the state constitution, that would have been the end of the conversation. Alas, the Missouri Supreme Court doesn’t seem to be inclined to listen. This week, the court halted abortions.

RFK Jr. is reportedly going to forbid government scientists from publishing in the world’s most respected medical journals — the Lancet, The New England Journal of Medicine, JAMA, etc. It’s going to take decades to repair the damage done by this administration.

TACO.

Historians Martha Jones and Kate Masur have filed a critical new brief in the birthright citizenship cases, showing how the story of free Black Americans' advocacy for birthright citizenship unravels the admin's lead justification for its EO. Read it ⬇️ www.brennancenter.org/media/13981/...

from today's post, about the hilarious dick-punching that the US Trade Court inflicted on Taco Donny. also: Donny melts down over his new nickname. please read the whole thing, thanks! link is here: bit.ly/4khtsOQ (and as always, there's a longer excerpt in the alt text)

I am going to research this, but I hope it is true. Further, I would really, really, really enjoy it is PM Carney made this Orange Turd get special permission to enter Canada. NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW.

We're hurtling toward a massively important and chaotic June at #SCOTUS — which always tries to clear its decks by July 4. After summarizing everything the justices have to deal with between now and then, today's bonus "One First" asks whether the Court's October-to-June calendar is still viable:

@johncusack.bsky.social could do the funniest thing right now.

Worth noting that this is also what the UK government review found, it just ignored all the evidence in its conclusions.

“Napalm girl” - was the iconic photo of the madness & insanity of Vietnam. These unspeakable images from Gaza are gruesome appalling witness to the world’s absolute moral failure - children burning . Justifying rationalizing the slaughter of children - T H E HORROR .

BREAKING: Judge Xinis DENIES the Trump administration an additional 30 days to file a response to the complaint in the Abrego Garcia case. "Defendants expended no effort in demonstrating good cause.

NEW: Trump's court pick Josh Divine once called for bringing back literacy tests in elections Literacy tests were banned in the 1960s for being racially discriminatory, but such tests “are not a bad thing,” Divine argued in a 2010 college op/ed. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

BREAKING: Trump administration goes to SCOTUS to try and stop the proposal *it* put forward for giving due process to the people it flew out of the U.S. and tried to send to South Sudan without due process and in violation of a court order. Note: DOJ is skipping the First Circuit completely here.

The technical assessment is that it will be a complete fucking nightmare. Foreign students are a big part of those campuses as well.
