This, of course, would violate the First Amendment. Peaceful protest is specifically allowed — Duffy is in essence demanding that cities break the law or be denied funding. So many lawsuits coming on this.

BREAKING: Scott Pelley just risked everything to make one thing clear: The attack on free speech isn’t coming—it’s already here. Journalists are being silenced, critics are being punished, and most of the media’s playing dead. This is state-sponsored suppression. This is dictatorship in real time.

as scott adams also announced he has prostate cancer, there’s going to be an entire generation of gen x that just dies younger due to trusting snake oil salesmen over real doctor practices endorsed by an entire political party designed to lie to them

The Memorial Day Message from the President of the United States of America, in memory of those who have given their lives defending America, the Constitution, and the freedoms that we Americans enjoy on this Memorial Day 2025.

Trump held up a printed picture of people lifting body bags and said, "These are all white farmers that are being buried.” The image actually shows humanitarian workers burying bodies in the city of Goma in Democratic Republic of Congo. They are not white, not farmers, and not South African.

As Trumpsters claim they really truly care about antisemitism, note the new Pentagon press secretary. jewishinsider.com/2025/05/king...

Seven minutes away from the franchise's first ECF in 25 years, "PJ Tucker!" chants have broken out inside MSG.

I think the Mets might be good

NBA LEGEND & 2025 Hall Of Famer: Carmelo Anthony! 🔥 Right where he belongs, with the greats!

The last day on which a majority of the Supreme Court’s justices had been appointed by Democratic presidents was May 14, 1969. One of the things we do in the legal academy is support our claims with facts.

Cornell scores a PPG with 10 seconds left to knock off 1 seed Michigan State, and keep the magical run alive in Mike Schafer's last season as coach. Schafer now 11-4 in 1st Rd. games, and 3-1 vs. 1 seeds in the 1st Rd. Cornell will face BU Saturday for Frozen Four bid.

Bill Maher: “A cult is really a cult when the leader asks you to turn on friends and family…Which brings me to America, suddenly saying to our closest friend in the world, you know what? ‘Fu*k Canada,’ for no particular reason…”

The National Park Service can now rehire 1,000 employees who were terminated, following court rulings that found Trump’s firings to be illegal. And The Resistance Rangers—park staff working to save public lands—held protests at national parks all across America this weekend, thousands joined in.

If a 78-year-old George W. Bush appointee can school DOJ and DOD on anti-trans discrimination, maybe we should expand our definition of what’s possible — and then act on it.

This.

Let this sink in—the head of the EPA has now labeled climate science as “religion”, and reframed the purpose of the EPA to “lower the cost of buying a car… and running a business”—the ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY! That’s where we are now. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/12/c...

Doug Ford: "We will never become the 51st state. Canada is not for sale ... he's taking more money out of Americans' pockets, and for what reason? We're still trying to figure this out."

"The question is simple: Who is betraying the United States Constitution: Mark Kelly or Elon Musk?" www.thebulwark.com/p/maybe-slee...

On Musk accusing Sen. Kelly of treason: "Schumer needs to make an issue of it on the floor of the Senate, and Jeffries in the House. They need to challenge their Republican colleagues to denounce Musk. This is a most serious charge. It can’t be left to stand." www.thebulwark.com/p/maybe-slee...
