New in PN: Trump's attack on Harvard hampered by his inability to STFU "The Trump administration would be getting slapped down in court even if the president & his minions didn’t constantly announce their intent to violate laws. But their incessant chest thumping does make things go a lot faster"

GOP Rep. Mike Flood faced loud yells from his constituents after admitting at a town hall that he hadn’t read parts of Trump’s budget bill that would make it easier for the government to defy court orders. “I am not going to hide the truth, this provision was unknown to me when I voted for that.”

At Law Dork, I covered the latest happenings at SCOTUS — from two orders that, at least temporarily, gave Trump exactly what he wanted to a request that they do the same regarding the people the administration shipped to Africa, bound for South Sudan, in violation of a court order.

The dress code and covered faces for these guys are bullshit. This is America, not Russia. All law enforcement agencies have both a standard uniform and a tactical uniform. Tactical uniforms and automatic weapons are meant for tactical missions, not publicity stunts. I am embarrassed for them.

We had a special request for the 9th amendment! This one essentially serves as a catch-all for individual rights. In basic terms, people have more rights than what is listed and if rights are listed, they don’t take away or ignore the ones people have. 👍 Note: We are not constitutional lawyers.

Capitalists HATE Socialism because it’s the antithesis of Capitalism. Socialism is investing in the people to build a stronger nation instead of only investing in oneself. Society is missing community, socialism IS community.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security. Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations. Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

Over $13 billion has been awarded to private companies involved in immigration enforcement in the past 10 years, with a 50% increase recorded from January to May 2025. These companies are profiting off of fear and hate. I know there are other areas where that money can be better used. #ProudBlue
