By a 5–4 vote, the Supreme Court holds that states may NOT immunize state officials from certain federal civil rights lawsuits alleging unlawful delays in an administrative process (like the provision of welfare benefits). Kavanaugh and Roberts join the liberals. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

A small government team at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, responsible for regulating autonomous cars—which Elon Musk claims are the future of Tesla—is being cut nearly in half by Musk. Conflict of interest?

Incredibly chilling and clear-eyed piece from @frank-bowman.bsky.social spelling out the implications of Trump’s latest executive orders—which, stripped of their muddled legalese, essentially anoint him as a monarch with absolute power. slate.com/news-and-pol...

BOOM! Bishop Mariann Budde has responded to her critics who told her to apologize to Donald Trump. “I am not going to apologize for asking for mercy for others.” Smash that repost if you agree she owes Trump ZERO apologies!! 🦋

An ex-sister-in-law submits sworn statement to senators accusing Hegseth of being so “abusive” toward his second wife that she once hid in a closet from him and had a safe word to call for help if she needed to get away from him. @karoun.bsky.social @Sharon LaFraniere www.nytimes.com/2025/01/21/u...
