I owe the television part of my career to @joyannreid.bsky.social, as do so many other Black voices y'all never would have heard of if not for her. And that's why she's gone. They can treat black folks as interchangeable, but everybody Black knows that Joy was indispensable.

I don’t judge Mitch McConnell for his choice of political party. I judge him for his greed, racism, and hunger for power. I judge him for causing irreparable damage to the Supreme Court, and not voting to convict Donald Trump. So will others. So will history.

Donald Trump has frozen all federal aid programs. He can't, as outlined in Article I, Section 9 of the Constitution. Congress controls spending and the budget.

by freezing all federal grants, trump is fundamentally transforming the relationship between the executive and congress. he is asserting dictatorial authority over federal spending, transforming congress's lawmaking powers into advisory authority. it is a constitutional crisis

An executive order cannot supersede a statute. Congress has found ByteDance a danger to national security and SCOTUS has upheld it. Trump’s job as of noon tomorrow is to “take care that the laws be faithfully executed.” That means enforcing the ban until ByteDance sells TikTok.

Dear Joe, I know it feels really wrong to order your AG to release a Special Counsel report because that’s been a bad thing to do for so long. But the Supreme Court says it’s okay now. It’s legal. It’s an official act. So go ahead, Mr. President. It’s normal now. ~ Everyone

Judge Cannon issued an injunction barring issuance of the Smith report, without waiting for DOJ to be heard, without facts about the report, and no pending case before her. She barred the report on the J6 case, which was not before her. She barred DOJ from talking with the WH too.

To say a little more about how unusual this is, the order is about 2 pages and change and it: 1) says nothing about why she has jurisdiction in a case she dismissed, 2) nothing about how she can enter an order while it's on appeal, 3) nothing on the standards, 4) and no analysis of the merits
