Apple defied a court order just so it could steal from app developers and jack up prices for users. A federal judge called it an “obvious cover-up” and put a stop to it. This is a huge win for app users, developers, and competition.

Well, I had an interesting Sunday night, how 'bout you?

🚨NEW: @floridadecideshealthcare.org and voters are suing the state over a recent law that makes it harder to participate in the ballot initiative process. www.democracydocket.com/cases/florid...

“There is nothing clever or funny about this image, Mr. President,” the New York State Catholic Conference said, “We just buried our beloved Pope Francis and the cardinals are about to enter a solemn conclave to elect a new successor of St. Peter. Do not mock us.”

RFK Jr and Statistics:

🚨🚨 The President of the United States is saying he “doesn’t know” if he needs to uphold the constitution??

@emilyjaynef.bsky.social you are badass.

Promises made, promises kept. Stand by for details....

A privilege as always to see the stones

Louder for the voters in the back!

Foreign films are a national security threat? We’re shaking our heads. We’d laugh if this wasn’t such dangerous, authoritarian rhetoric. What other countries do this? Russia and China.

I am not often quoted in @nytimes.com DealBook, but I hope the business community is listening.

⚡️Czech Republic ready to train Ukrainian pilots on F-16, L-39 aircraft, Czech PM says. "We are ready to deepen our contribution to the training of the Ukrainian military," Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala said on May 5.

Speak Truth to Power.....

NY17 Constituent and local social worker Emily Feiner was singled out and forcibly removed during Rep. Mike Lawler's town hall.

I expect at least one major voting right lawsuit to be filed today. Democracy Docket will have full coverage. www.democracydocket.com

Dropping at Midnight Eastern: it’s almost certain. Judges in both the Abrego Garcia and Rendition Flights cases are looking to charge the same guy with Contempt of Court: Stephen Miller! You’re taking the fall! Monday’s Countdown podcast drops at midnight wherever you podcast

Warnock: I don’t know how anybody can be apathetic after what we’re going through right now. We say elections have consequences. That ain’t a slogan right about now. We’re living that reality. Here I am doing everything I can with the tools that I have but tools are not the same…

Few lawyers are willing to speak publicly about President Trump’s actions against law firms. Fear is rippling through Washington. But, despite being a target, Marc Elias is still talking. Scott Pelley sits down with him tonight on 60 Minutes.

Nothing to see here. Just @emilyjaynef.bsky.social being forcibly removed from NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler's town hall tonight for having the temerity to act like a citizen of the United States. Hero.

Meiselas: And then the right-wing influencers tried to pretend those were the Epstein files. Moskowitz: And then they looked at the list that was in the files, and they were like, “Shit, we know half these people.”

Things the president of the United States said on meet the press today: He doesn’t know if he has to follow the constitution He’s fine with a recession Americans can do with less Small businesses are just “a couple of little businesses”

Warnock: Georgia officials said they were sorry but their hands were tied, you can’t vote the first weekend of the runoff after the holiday so I decided to untie them, I sued them. And I won… They appealed asking for emergency relief. Emergency relief from what? People voting?

Congrats! 🇦🇺 ❤️

In any other time, an Onion headline in which Area Guy accidentally becomes president. Now in the NYT.

"I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Lichen-homing, climate-recording, folklore-anchoring and just possibly, precession pointing – some stones of the Long Neolithic are akin to Swiss Army Knives. They are not mere broken tombs, they are living gifts from the past. – Dr. K. Brophy, 1982 #StandingStoneSunday #LongNeolithic

Trump said in an interview today that he wasn’t sure if everyone on American soil is entitled to due process, despite clear constitutional guarantees.

I expect several new pro-voting lawsuits to be filed this week. The best way to stay informed about these new cases and everything happening to democracy in court is to sign up for free to Democracy Docket. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0
