the only people who benefit from this are child predators and i'd like dem officials to say so into a microphone

Retaliatory tariffs are all right and good but if Canada, Mexico and the EU want to get this over with sanctioning the hell out of Trump’s oligarchs seems like a force multiplier.

"Trump is acting like a king because he is too weak to govern like a president. He is trying to substitute perception for reality. He is hoping that perception then becomes reality. That can only happen if we believe him." I felt better after reading this. Maybe you will too. Gift link:

We should normalize calling stupid, obvious lies Stupid Obvious Lies. "Foreign countries pay tariffs, not Americans." No, that's a Stupid Obvious Lie. Telling someone a stupid, obvious lie to their face and expecting them to believe it is extremely rude.

Donald Trump is a demented old bigot.

@stevevladeck.bsky.social will National Security Law Podcast return?

I’m going to talk about pages 11, 12, and 13 of this brief in depth, because that is the part where the Trump DOJ tries to defend the Trump Executive Order. The lawyers here so deeply misrepresent some of the cited material that it should be cause for sanctions in any just world. (Thread)

It’s fun that john roberts put out a statement attacking criticism of the justices as baseless and then Sam Alito went and asked Trump for a favor

we need mutual aid, antifascism, and community defense REGARDLESS OF WHO WINS and frankly i'd feel a lot safer if more people understood that

Writ of mandamus appears on page two. Tom Fitton (“the Judicial Watch President”) appears on page 8, and page 9 (“not an attorney”) storage.courtlistener.com/reca…

a better way to put this is "book publishers want to squeeze libraries over digital books despite it being illegal to do this with physical books" and there should be a legislative remedy for this. the licensing model for what are basically pdfs is insane.
