Since May: Federal district courts have ruled against Trump admin 94% of the time. Supreme Court has sided with the Trump admin 94% of the time. A judiciary at war with itself.

Bar chart titled “The Supreme Court vs. The Lower Courts: Rulings on the Trump Administration” showing three horizontal bar charts for May 1-June 23, 2025. Federal District Courts: large red bar (82 cases, 94.3% against) with tiny green bar (5 cases, 5.7% for). Circuit Courts of Appeal: medium red bar (15 cases, 68.2% against) with smaller green bar (7 cases, 31.8% for). Supreme Court: tiny red bar (1 case, 6.3% against) with large green bar (15 cases, 93.7% for). Shows dramatic reversal from lower courts ruling against Trump administration to Supreme Court ruling for it.

"Biden was old but governed normally. Trump governs erratically *because* he’s unglued. That’s the true cover-up, one the media is enabling when they seem more concerned with the mental condition of a former president than the escalating madness of the current one."

The real cover-up is of Trump's disordered mental state

Sanewashing didn't end with the 2024 campaign.

In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.” This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent. He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.

In the name of reducing fentanyl overdoses, Trump has gone to the extreme—levied tariffs, listed cartels as terrorist groups, and weighed drone strikes in Mexico. But these proclamations gloss over a glaring reality: The admin is decimating funding for treatment and overdose prevention programs.

motherjones.com

If Trump cares so much about fentanyl, why is he cutting addiction treatment funding?

Punishing China and Mexico via tariffs won't solve the country's drug problems.

Lawyers across the country, including me, are ringing the bell as loud as we possibly can about the fact that the Abrego Garcia case signals the end of our democracy.

I think the Supreme Court got the law badly wrong tonight. But beyond that, it’s just incredibly ominous that Roberts would throw Boasberg under the bus and hand Trump this big win when his administration has conducted this case in EXTREME bad faith from the start. slate.com/news-and-pol...

The majority seems to be affording the president a strong presumption of regulatory-assuming good faith and respect for constitutional boundaries. But everything this administration has done since Jan. 20 rebuts that presumption (a reality that may be dawning on Barrett, but apparently not Roberts or Brett Kavanaugh). As Boasberg has shown, and Sotomayor noted, the president invoked the Alien Enemies Act in secret so it could hustle
migrants overseas before courts could intervene. Why should he now receive this extraordinary, undeserved assistance to continue operating what is so obviously an unlawful program, with a pinky promise that he'll afford due process this time to those ensnared on the thinnest of pretenses? Roberts' decision to bail Trump out is a deeply ominous sign that the chief justice wants to rein in lower courts standing in the way of the MAGA agenda. If he does, it won't just be Venezuelan migrants who pay the price. J

The Government’s conduct in this litigation poses an extraordinary threat to the rule of law. That a majority of this
