Sorry, what?

@timmiller.bsky.social to Bezos: 👎

Christian Nationalism is religious rule, too.

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.

FOX: “The final read for Q1 GDP was -0.5%… the first negative read we've actually clocked since Q1 of 2022.“

"We'll continue to conduct these complex negotiations in the best interest of Canadians," Mark Carney, Canada's prime minister, tells reporters after President Trump said he's ending all trade discussions with Ottawa.

Don't forget that the Supreme Court has undertaken this radical expansion of executive power and personal immunity not for some ordinary Republican but for the most corrupt president In American history. They're doing it for THIS GUY, who is guaranteed to abuse every ounce of power he's given.

This is a lie (as usual). While I disagree with the decision, IT LEAVES THE INJUNCTIONS OF THE BIRTHRIGHT EO IN PLACE, just narrows them to the plaintiffs. And it does not limit nationwide class actions, which will be filed to achieve the identical outcomes. The EO remains unconstitutional.

The Supreme Court is about to go on an extended summer vacation, after having blown up the docket of every single lower court judge who has been working like a dog to deal with the firehose of illegal orders coming out of this administration.

Daily reminder of what an utter choad that fuck is.

Bondi just said DHS is helping rid us of criminals from the Sinaloa Cartel, but she failed to mention the asylum she gave to family members of the Sinaloa Cartel. She also said we're ridding the country of MS-13, but failed to mention the asylum she's giving to MS-13 leaders in the Abrego case.

Them's fancy words for Marjorie Taylor Greene's "National Divorce," which is I believe the endgame.

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

@jvl.bsky.social on Trump v. Casa. Only @thebulwark.com: www.thebulwark.com/p/the-suprem...

Breaking: In a 6-3 ruling, the conservative justices just ruled that nationwide injunctions likely exceed the authority Congress has given the courts. In doing so, the Court is narrowing nationwide injunctions that blocked Trump's executive order ending birthright citizenship.

Sotomayor: Trump knew his birthright citizenship order was unconstitutional, so he went after the universal injunctions. "The gamesmanship in this request is apparent and the Government makes no attempt to hide it. Yet, shamefully, this Court plays along." www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Haaretz - IDF officers and soldiers say they were ordered to fire at unarmed crowds near food distribution sites in Gaza, even when no threat was present.

Other incentives include potentially removing some sanctions on Iran and allowing Tehran to access the $6 billion currently sitting in foreign bank accounts that it is restricted from freely using. www.cnn.com/2025/06/26/p...

Pretty sure, in fact, that the CBP Traveler Verification System is explicitly barred from keeping pictures of US citizens?

The Republican Party is the verminous, bigoted party of ignorance and anti-Americanism, striving to turn this into a totalitarian blood-and-soil shithole.

NEWS: Kenneth Chesebro, "architect" of the 2020 fake electors plot who pleaded to criminal charges in Georgia, has been disbarred from the practice of law in New York, per order issued today by New York appellate court.

NEW: The Trump admin finalized an emergency regulation, which goes into effect tomorrow, authorizing DHS to impose civil monetary penalties for immigration law violations with far less due process. The rule could lead to DHS imposing exorbitant fines on millions of people — fines they can't afford.

Breaking: After a classified briefing with Cabinet officials, Sen. Chris Murphy says: "I walk away from that briefing still under the belief that we have not obliterated the programs."   "The president was deliberately misleading the public when he said the program was obliterated."

Wow.

Just the NYT calling the areas where Mamdani most won votes - "The Commie Corner"

When I asked a former Air Force missile-squadron commander if senior officers could refuse the order to launch nuclear weapons, he said: “We were told we can refuse illegal and immoral orders.” He paused. “But no one ever told us what *immoral* means.”

Holy. And I can not stress this enough: shit.

The American Academy of Pediatricians bluntly telling us the current CDC can't be trusted, and of course they are absolutely correct publications.aap.org/aapnews/news...

Everyone is focusing on Bove’s “f*** you” comment but not enough attention being given to the other bombshell in the WB, which is the premeditated violation of the Mass. district court injunction and subsequent cover up, the same injunction which SCOTUS stayed on Monday 1/

“The soft power suicide of the U.S. will be incomprehensible to future historians who will be dumbfounded in their attempts to explain why the global leader voluntarily wrecked one of its greatest national assets...” www.nytimes.com/2025/06/24/b...

Attys for @aclu.org give the DC Circuit panel, which temporarily stayed Judge Boesberg's order to start contempt proceedings in the 1st Alien Enemies Act case (JGG) on 4/18, a copy of the whistleblower report that corroborates Judge Boesberg's findings in spades.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Wow. 🤬

What.

🚨NEW: Erez Reuveni, the DOJ lawyer fired for his honesty in the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case, sends Congress a whistleblower letter detailing lawlessness at the DOJ around the CECOT deportations. He says Emil Bove told the DOJ to respond to likely court orders blocking flights with "fuck you."

Ron DeSantis is using emergency powers to take over plans for an immigrant prison surrounded by alligators and pythons so it can be built ASAP.

Today marks the third anniversary of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. What's happened since? A record number of women have been prosecuted. Pregnancy loss is now considered extremely suspicious, even when it has nothing to do with abortion.

Rep. Ruiz: "Did you read the report and fact check its sources?" Kennedy: "I did not fact check." Rep. Ruiz: " Why did the report include citations to sources that don't even exist?" Kennedy: "The foundational assertions were accurate." Rep. Ruiz: "They don't exist!"

Remember, this new normal -- in which gangs of masked armed gunmen are causing chaos in the streets, pulling weapons and assaulting innocent people, and no one can say if they're crooks or cops -- was all sold to Americans as a way to make us feel safer.

The Bove allegations should be treated as something akin to Watergate, or Iran Contra. The administration was attempting to do something they *knew* was illegal (anticipating the courts saying as much), and then trying to COVER IT UP. Only here instead of it being run out of the WH or NSC, it’s DOJ

There’s a growing problem you’re not supposed to question: masked agents detaining migrants. Not in war zones...here...on U.S. soil. When power hides its face...it stops being accountable. When you can’t ID authority...you can’t challenge it. 1/5 🧵

Baker and the New York Times are going to great and conspicuous lengths here not to say “He obviously pulled the announcement out of his ass.”

Waiting for news outlets and reporters to acknowledge that maybe, just maybe, reporting Trump's social media posts on foreign policy without confirmation is deeply irresponsible and an embarrassing failure of journalism.

It’s wild that in the video DHS posted in an effort to make the beating of an innocent landscaper (with 3 marine sons) seem justified there’s a masked ice goon pointing a gun at a random car passing by and they don’t seem to think it matters at all

I honestly think Trump just declared the ceasefire in hopes everyone would just go along with it. Dude is not mentally well.

This is good and important www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

We're in uncharted territory with this SCOTUS. They're making decisions--without regard to precedent, without regard to norms, without regard to justice, without regard to the impact on the rule of law in the U.S., without regard to consequences, and very often with a complete lack of transparency.
