The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

Wife of Abrego Garcia spoke in front of the Maryland courthouse pleading with Trump to stop playing politics and return her husband. Judge Xinis is about to rule on Trump’s disobedience of her orders.

BREAKING: Federal judge in Boston halts Trump administration's mass cancellation of CHNV (Cuba/Haiti/Nicaragua/Venezuela) parole. Indira Talwani (Obama) says it was premised on legal error & lacked required individualized assessment. Doc: www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

What we all just witnessed had all the earmarks of a criminal conspiracy to deprive Abrego-Garcia of his constitutional rights, as well as an impeachable offense. The fraud scheme was a phony agreement engineered by the US to have Bukele say he lacks power to return Abrego Garcia and he won't do it.

If you’re a woman who took the last name of your spouse, and you need to pay to get a passport in order to vote, that would be a poll tax. Poll taxes are unconstitutional.

In a medical report just released about Trump - a medical report - amid the grandiose descriptions of his health is a reference to golf - not that he stays active with golf but that he wins tournaments. Aggrandizement is non-stop. A cult loves it. The market doesn't. It wants America, not N Korea.

HUGE WIN: A federal judge just issued a lengthy TRO prohibiting the Trump administration from freezing federal funds to Maine over their policies protecting transgender youth. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Ayep!

Reuters: LAW FIRM SUSMAN GODFREY SUES U.S. GOVERNMENT FOLLOWING TRUMP EXECUTIVE ORDER AGAINST IT - COURT DOCKET

@golden.house.gov Shame on you for voting for the SAVE act which is blatant VOTER SUPPRESSION.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name. It is blatantly unconstitutional.

The credibility of the US government is completely shot. Gone. Annihilated. Nobody anywhere in the world can believe a single word that comes out of this Administration. Ever.

Summer Serendipity

I don't know a single person my age who isn't talking about massive investment losses. They are mad. They are frustrated. They are annoyed. And they are blaming Trump for this. The negative consequences of Trump's tariffs are real and young people are noticing and livid.

New blog post! Taming the chaos of scrap quilts. https://snugglesquilts.com/scrap-quilting-unplanned-chaos-or-not/

This isn’t hypothetical. Let’s look at how Trump’s steel tariffs in 2018 affected the industry. Factories closed as downstream industries—like auto and construction—faced higher costs, losing $3.5B in output. 1/

The economy is in free fall. The markets are collapsing. Our soldiers are dying. Our sensitive information is being leaked over text message and gmail. Random people are being kidnapped and sent to foreign torture prisons. And Trump is fucking golfing.

i am fascinated by the outright refusal of people in the professional political commentary class to just consider the possibility that there is no plan and that trump really is a braying idiot with the more acute case of narcissistic personality disorder on record

If there really was a God and he had any sense of humor, then tomorrow as the market tanked again, Scott Bessent would be a guest on Fox News, and just as he began to argue that people should not underestimate Trump, his head would explode - actually explode - with blood and gore spraying the host.

The stock market is currently set to open down another 1500 points in the morning. It couldn’t be more clear why Trump went bankrupt seven times.

Never seen so many people in #Milwaukee at a protest. Thousands. #handsoff

A big heartfelt thanks to all those who decided to stay home and not vote last November. Lazy, shortsighted, naive bunch of a-holes.

Ever get the feeling you’re being watched? shop.snugglesquilts.com

Trump just imposed, by executive order, the single largest tax increase on consumers in American history.
