Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s dissent hits the target. She is reminding us of the stakes in this case. And she is spot on. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Trump’s budget is a ticking time bomb for Millennials and Gen Z...a $3 trillion wealth grab from their future. The GOP’s calling it growth. I’m calling it theft. This is the fight Democrats must take on if they want to win in 2026. Here’s how to frame it...and win big. www.jackhopkinsnow.com

Amazing that when they get in courtrooms, all the big claims they make outside the courthouse to the media suddenly go away.

For all the “Russia participates in the START treaty which is why the bombers we’re in the open” level of cope out there: No they don’t. They suspended their participation in 2023. They just thought the bombers we’re safe

I wish Dems were organized or competent enough to put together a serious "Project 2028" detailing in specifics everything they're going to fix if they make it back.

the universe wishes you a very happy pride month 🏳️‍🌈🌌
