Eager to soothe Trump’s wounded ego, the Supreme Court ended nationwide injunctions today. Trump is crowing, but this just means we’ll take our smashing wins in 4 district courts and turn them into wins in 94 district courts. People born here are citizens, period.

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

As someone who mostly reads horror, I'll never understand the vitriol towards "cozy" books. People say they are escapist, unserious, allowing readers to avoid big issues. And I'm like, girl, WHEN did your dark romance book fix society? Did I BLINK and miss your detective thriller solving crime?

Despicable. Thousands of people rely on Planned Parenthood for cancer screenings and pap smears, STI testing, and so many more essential services. Women should not be penalized for needing reproductive health care.

People are really overlooking the fact that Black women are the base of the Democratic Party and that we never go wrong with who we support. But you all go on ahead and run this party and country into the ground. You'll only have yourselves to blame.

Really tired of people throwing @kamalaharris.com under the bus to praise Mamdani. You know what the biggest difference was between their campaigns? She was running nationally for President of the United States while he was running in a Democratic primary in overwhelmingly Democratic NYC.

contrarian.substack.com/p/you-cant-b... What a legacy this man is creating for himself. Congress should be utterly ashamed for contributing to this clusterf**k. I hope all the money they are making from the market is worth it. We are only as strong as our weakest link…our government
