@law360.bsky.social is launching a live tracker of legal challenges to every action & EO coming from the Trump admin. Updating daily, and we’re keeping score of how POTUS fares in court. Reporting @bykatiebuehler.bsky.social, editing by @hp-zz.bsky.social, gfx by me. www.law360.com/trump-legal-...

NEW: @law360.bsky.social has created a *public* database of legal cases involving President Trump's executive orders and other actions. The data is searchable and sortable and will be updated regularly; links to coverage for subscribers. Graphics by @benjayingly.com www.law360.com/trump-legal-...

The headline that 21 DOGE staffers have resigned is a little misleading. These were employees of the United States Digital Service, which existed pre-administration and was absorbed into Musk’s team. These aren’t the young idiots; these are actual civil servants.

House Republicans flailing on their whip count and not having the votes to pass their big bills is a pleasant throwback to happier days of my youth (last year)

New York's congestion pricing toll has reduced traffic and sped up commutes. Now it's also hitting its revenue goals: $48 million raised in its first month. President Trump still wants to kill it. Free link: www.nytimes.com/2025/02/24/n...

Let the fact that Elon Musk and Steve Bannon are still upright and platformed forever put to rest the claim that the aggressive repression of students gathered in tents on campus lawns to protest genocide was actually about stopping antisemitism.

If you’re looking for something concrete you can do, give money to Susan Crawford in Wisconsin who is about to get hit with a ton of Musk Bucks. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/20/u...

MTA to Feds: Drop dead

why it's almost as if there's a well-funded authoritarian cabal working in global unison to dismantle democratic norms for their collective benefit by waging war on journalism, education, legal accountability, and informed consensus

“The thing that I can’t get over is that the actual richest man in the world directed my fucking firing. I make $50k a year and work to keep drinking water safe. The richest man in the world decided that was an expense too great for the American taxpayer.”

wrath of khan is due for a comeback in the younger generation. i feel like the thing standing in its way is. well the state of modern star trek. but it is simply one of the greatest old man yaoi movies ever made if you like anime you will like wrath of khan

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

my take is that your willingness to accept this gulf of america nonsense is an indicator of your willingness to accept much worse things coming from this administrator

Eric Adams line prosecutor Hagan Scotten, resigning rather than filing "dismissal-with-leverage" motion: "I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me." Via @NYTimes.com https://buff.ly/4hVJGLX

They're attacking the workers first. These are the people they want to make extinct—people who can have a lifelong career in public service, professionals who devote their lives to applying an expertise to government.

The accounts that injected inflation and Gaza into the discourse are now silent. They’ve been replaced with a new influence campaign to divide opposition by attacking Democrats for “not doing enough.” Don’t be a useful idiot. Don’t fall for it!

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

Acting US Attorney for SDNY, Danielle Sassoon, says in her resignation letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi that U.S. deputy attorney General, Emil Bove, offered the disgraced NYC Mayor Eric Adams a quid pro quo to drop his corruption case in exchange for immigration enforcement assistance. 😲

One thing Democratic leadership could do right now is to name an alternate HHS secretary--someone to provide ongoing public updates and health information. And do it for other departments too. Start showing voters what a Democratic government would look like--press conferences, speeches, all of it.

To the people *shocked* that the GOP would go after Section 504: Disabled people have been saying this. Disabled people have been saying this. Disabled people have been saying this. Disabled people have been saying this. Disabled people have been saying this.

NYC! Tomorrow is the last day to change your party registration to Democrat if you wanna help primary our piece of shit mayor in June! Registration Check nycvotersearch.com Change Party: e-register.vote.nyc

Call the US government today, flood the lines and apply maximum pressure. Demand they do their jobs, arrest Musk, and impeach Trump. 5 minutes, 5 calls, repeat. #3E

Never misses

Luigi should run for office then

Look I agree that Elon Musk appears to be on a lot of drugs every time he appears in public. That's not very interesting to me. I'm more interested in how many drugs he can do at once. I think he could probably do more than anyone ever. I bet he could take way more than the doctors say is safe.

Some of the fabulous Gaza hotels being built: The Jill Stein Sheridan, the Protest Vote Hilton, the Cornel Best Western, the Edgelord Inn, the Sarandon Suites...

Kathy Hochul must remove Eric Adams as mayor immediately

the only people who benefit from this are child predators and i'd like dem officials to say so into a microphone

As a father to a daughter I am not worried about her competing with trans athletes because she is not a loser.

Who had to tell Trump if Americans can't buy their Anime Figurines the economy will collapse?

The people who voted for Trump because they thought he’d pull the U.S. back from foreign entanglements and overseas adventurism are really among the prime suckers of our era.
