Conservative and liberal judges across the country this week ruled against President Donald Trump in at least 11 different lawsuits challenging his administration’s immigration, elections and anti-diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) efforts. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

World’s Richest Man, a South African White Man, Cuts off Food Supply to World’s Poorest People in African Refugee Camps

For the ass to call President Biden "sleepy Joe" when he is the one caughtmon camera falling asleep during public events is rich! The picture of him in the bottom left is just too funny!

Are we surprised by this news?

If you wonder why men *obsessed* with the United States having more children are kidnapping children and sending them to other countries, those children were the incorrect color.

New in PN: Arresting judges is a 5-alarm escalation "It’s not just that Dugan was arrested, but how she was arrested. The whole point was to cause a scene. There’s no allegation she was attempting to evade arrest, but the FBI still forced a sitting judge to do a perp walk at her place of work."

My weekend take on Kilmar’s case: Do Americans believe in cruelty? Are we cruel? Do we want our children to be cruel? Forget about the politics of Kilmar. This is a question about whether we are going to make Trump‘s cruelty our own. open.substack.com/pub/jimacost...

🚨BREAKING: Judge finds flying migrants to El Salvador after orders not to "demonstrate a willful disregard for its Order, sufficient for the Court to conclude that probable cause exists to find the Government in criminal contempt." Visit www.democracydocket.com for full details and analysis.

So you can take over Greenland and Canada but can’t send a plane to pick up someone you are paying another country to hold for a year? Weird take on sovereignty.

We knew exactly what this administration was going to do because it was written in Project 2025. Folks can be surprised at how quickly it has moved, but no one can act like they didn't know.

"After nearly five hours, he and his wife were released. They are now pursuing legal action. "It's not about the immigrants," his sister, told NBC10 Boston. "It's coming to us Americans, and it's going to go after all of us." www.nbcboston.com/news/politic...

When I was in a high school creative writing class, I had a character say, "Las Vegas means 'The Vegas' in Mexican" to convey how ignorant she was. Still works.

he did this just *after* going to the funeral of an 8 year old girl. he walks away from where the hearse is idling and immediately starts hyping this stuff again. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

I am certain if there was no animosity between USA and Canada, Vladdy would have left Toronto Blue Jays after this year to sign with any USA baseball team. With the exception of the Colorado Rockies, Miami Marlins, Chicago White Sox, and the New York Yankees.

Vladdy Guerrero agrees to historic 14-year contract extension with the Blue Jays.worth $500 million (U.S.) The extension doesn’t include any deferrals and, once officially announced, will become the second-largest contract by net present day value in Major League Baseball history.

Someone needs to hear this: Sesame Street isn’t a corporation. The Post Office doesn’t exist to make money. Cops and firefighters & EMTs don’t exist to turn a profit. Not everything in life is supposed to be monetized.💵💵

The White House admits they sent an innocent father of three to the prison in El Salvador but they are still fighting to make sure he doesn’t come home. The definition of evil.

trump promised to bring down grocery prices on day one. So far, the only things he's brought down are the stock market, and the world's opinion of America. We are a shithole country.

"The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand."

Today's stock market crash was the worst since the Spring of 2020. Can you guess who was president during *both* crashes? I bet you can!

Lost in the shuffle of yesterday's news: Trump spared Russia🇷🇺, North Korea🇰🇵, Cuba🇨🇺 and Belarus🇧🇾 from his new tariffs. And, no, he is not a commie asset. [Lest you are thinking: "Come on, how much trade do we actually do with those countries?" I would only point out that the Falkland Islands (pop. 3

Direct evidence of criminal election bribery under Wis. Stat. §12.11: “‘My name’s Ekaterina Deistler,’ she said in a video posted Monday morning. ‘I did exactly what Elon Musk told everyone to do: sign the petition, refer friends and family, vote, and now I have a million dollars.’”

He wore the cheesehead hat in WI. Spent $20 million. Paid people to sign petitions. Paid people to canvas. Did million dollar giveaways. A rally. TV interviews. But I guess people in Wisconsin didn’t appreciate an oligarch trying to buy their civil liberties.

Many are saying that it sucks to be Elise Stefanik today. I’d argue that it sucks to be Elise Stefanik every day.

The thing I admire most about Jeffery Goldberg right now is that he didn't sit on his incendiary scoop, waiting to reveal it only when he could make money from it in a book, like so many other selfish people who know shocking things about this administration have done and will continue to do.

Yes, when you back Russia, you are taking the side of Iran and North Korea.

He fired the black chairman of the joint chiefs for being woke and hired his brother.

People are taking things into their own hands

i don't need you to tell me sh*t I already know. i need you to use every ounce whatever power you have to stop it. Mitch McConnell might be an evil b*stard but he was an effective evil b*stard. f*cking do something.

WTF? What is wrong with the Blue Jays (I mean, other than the second-worst management team in all of baseball)?

How would @edsbs.bsky.social fix Atlanta? There’s no escaping many of the allegations we’d like to dodge about our city. But at the very least, we should change the name of our baseball team. It's time to rebrand the Braves—immediately and forever. how-id-fix-atlanta.ghost.io/how-spencer-...

It's almost like he is showing off to his wife just like he was "preening" in that Signal chat...

We will not be distracted. We will not be discouraged. We’ve got our eyes on the prize. And we will build the prosperous, free nation for all that we deserve. The time to organize is now. OcasioCortez.com

Pete Hegseth won't resign. But he should. Incompetent fuck. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/24/o...

If the White House is insisting that there was no classified or secret information in the Signal chat, does that mean Jeffrey Goldberg can publish it all?

Pete Hegseth must resign or be fired immediately.

Signal-gate and the Social Security scandal show how tyranny works: the regime can do no wrong, and the people have no rights. They claim it wasn't classified info in the chat, but Goldberg can be prosecuted. DOGE doesn't want to disclose their workers names, but wants your social security info.

Former CIA officer and Michigan Sen. Elissa Slotkin sounds off on the Trump administration’s national security breach: “There are human beings who can lose their lives on the other side of this.”
