So now that a judge is under attack, Chief Justice John Roberts wakes up to push back. Wasn’t he the guy who wrote immunity was needed so the President wouldn’t be deterred “from taking the bold and unhesitating action required of an independent Executive”? Like what you did now, Justice Roberts?

While the Trump administration is modeling its shift of the United States from democracy to authoritarianism after Victor Orban's Hungary, they would do well to notice how that's going over with Hungarians.

Chief Justice John Roberts has issued a remarkable statement in response to Trump’s call for impeachment of the judge who ruled against him in Alien Enemy Act case. This is about law, not politics.

Chuck Schumer was damned if he did and damned if he didn't. Eventually the wheel of karma will turn again in the favor of sensible people, but God, am I tired of waiting.

This is horrible to post, but I may as well post it. We are essentially shutting down research operations in my group, which is focused on treatments for pediatric brain cancer. I’m a well funded investigator, and there’s no choice. Science can’t function without the stability of NIH

Great constitutional separation of powers lesson today. Court says president can’t fire workers in violation of laws passed by Congress. Didn’t Trump ever watch Schoolhouse Rock?

Kudos to Senator Kelly—a former astronaut, veteran and man of honor who supports our democratic ally Ukraine—for pushing back against the arrogant buffoon Elon Musk who violates our laws and dares to call Kelly a traitor.

I'm sorry for raining on this parade, but the "transgender mice" talking point is bullshit, but not because someone mistook "transgenic" for "transgender." The blog post that kicked it off (from a partisan bullshit website) listed a number of papers testing the effects of sex hormones on animals.

Today in Rhode Island, a federal judge told Trump to stop impounding funds allocated by Congress. It’s about more than just the money; it’s about making sure the president doesn’t make a grab for powers that belong to Congress under the Constitution. joycevance.substack.com/p/courts-to-...

Getting rid of the American workers who take care of American veterans is wrong. Veterans will not take this sitting down - we can make this the newest example of Trump being forced to back down from a bad move.

OK, so it is not enough to be born in the US to become a citizen, but if you have 5 million dollars you can buy your way in with a “gold card”. The man is insane.

From a guy who used to work there: Rachel is a remarkable person and the best TV news talent there is. If she says something is fucked up, it is. Getting rid of Joy, who dared to see through this fascism bullshit years ago and had the gall of occasionally being funny about it, is dumb.
