Donald Trump Jr., Laura Loomer, and Charlie Kirk were among the right-wingers who fired off Islamophobic smears about Mamdani and Muslim New Yorkers to their millions of followers after Cuomo’s surprising concession.

Wake up Democratic Party old guard establishment. This isn’t about New York City. This is the way the wind is blowing. Step aside for young people who this country will need over the next several decades long after you are gone. Enough with your egos and the big money interests.

Rep. Ruiz: "Did you read the report and fact check its sources?" Kennedy: "I did not fact check." Rep. Ruiz: " Why did the report include citations to sources that don't even exist?" Kennedy: "The foundational assertions were accurate." Rep. Ruiz: "They don't exist!"

The last few days have truly been a low point for the American news media. And it’s all because journalists in this country—and their corporate masters—lack the courage to say what they all know and say endlessly in private: That Trump is stupid, and nuts.

It's impressive how SCOTUS managed to eviscerate the rule of law on two independent levels: 1) it rewards lawless disregard of court orders; and 2) makes Due Process optional. And, they did so without even explaining their ruling.

If you want to spend less on your healthcare system, try reducing both poverty and chronic mass insecurity with universal basic income instead of increasing poverty and insecurity with benefit cuts. Poverty and chronic stress are expensive. It's cheaper to prevent illness than it is to treat it.

Truly horrified by this order in way that is deeper and darker than I have felt over many truly awful merits decisions.

I didn’t have the Supreme Court destroying the authority of federal district courts on my bingo card. But in retrospect that’s perhaps where all this shadow docket decision-making was going all along. Really scary stuff.

This war looks like it should end up being called the “Bullshitzkrieg,” because at this point, it pretty much seems to have been performative on all sides, especially on Trump’s. We should be grateful for that, but … WTAF.

BREAKING: In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court allows Trump to resume deporting migrants to third countries with minimal notice. Justice Sotomayor dissented, criticizing the Court for rewarding lawlessness and undermining due process. From: @jaknutson.bsky.social‬

NEW: SCOTUS lets the Trump admin deport non-citizens to third countries (S. Sudan) without screening them for fear of persecution, staying a lower court's injunction during appeal. Justice Sotomayor writes for the 3 liberals: "I cannot join so gross an abuse of the Court’s equitable discretion."

The Court has deemed district court orders irrelevant. They can be repeatedly & explicitly violated by this Administration in ways that will irreparably harm migrants (sent to war-torn S. Sudan or Libya w/o due process) & the SCOTUS conservatives will defer. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

DISASTROUS. This means they will send people to horrific situations with no due process — in direct violation of promises the Solicitor General made to the Court in previous cases. This greenlights sending people to be enslaved in Libya or tortured in any random foreign country.

Marco Rubio needs to be asked whether he believes his grandfather who remained in the U.S. after receiving a deportation order from our govt should have been treated the way the father of 3 Marines was treated by ICE this weekend in California. ASK HIM. Make him confront his lack of character.

Joe Rogan noticed that Stephen Miller's goons are "nuts." Share with your right wing member of Congress, if you have one.

I want you to imagine the outcry there would be if any other country did this to US citizens. Such countries would be classified, appropriately, as authoritarian enemies of free speech and dissent.

Note to media: “Trump says” is not a story. He says A LOT. He lies a lot. Do some sifting, discerning, contextualizing. Otherwise it’s just stenography. And you’re embarrassing yourselves.
