Another loss for Trump. But court orders don't seem to mean much to him, so we can expect more shenanigans. Re: Breaking News: Judge blocks Trump admin’s database of Americans’ social security numbers and citizenship status.
Trump is trying to curse the Knicks and the city to get the attention on him. Evil mofo. Next will be rewriting the inscription on the Statue of Liberty.
Metal detectors at the entrance to Columbia University. Happy graduation.
According to Will Baude, the Court overstepped its authority to stop the NYS redistricting order. They did backflips to get to its intervention, and worse, to expand its authority over state courts. In context - a succession of such orders - it's trouble. blog.dividedargument.com/p/supreme-co...
Stasi level merde I guess that this wasn't covered in the 47 day training course. But I bet that each and every one of them read "On KIlling'

Massie's Discharge Petition. Every member who votes against this should be aggressively and publicly shamed, and the target of the DNC for retirement in 2026.
Trump said this on Truth Social about Bryan Kohberger, the convicted murderer in Idaho who plead guilty in return for four LWOP sentences. I think this was written by a bot.
Only someone who knows how to bankrupt a business - several businesses- would say something like this without irony.
Has there ever been a smaller person occupying the White House? This Trump belittling the contributions of allied nations to the victory in WWII, ignoring their huge costs and sacrifices. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Bank stocks in free fall. Is Trump crazy enough or dumb enough to gut the FDIC?
