This is nonsense. A district court decision holds just as much legal weight as a Supreme Court decision. The only difference is the district court’s ruling is appealable. But until you WIN an appeal a district court’s decision binds all parties, including the executive branch.

Out of all the bullies and monsters in the administration, Marco Rubio seems like the purest specimen of how Nazism happened—not a sincere bigot or ideologue, just an empty shell who has literally no limits on what he will agree to do or pretend to believe, embracing brutality to fill his weakness

The ability to control mass party opinion this directly is unlike anything I’ve really seen in my time covering politics.

Wyoming Republicans have banned so-called “compelled speech” regarding pronouns. No one, they proclaimed, should be forced to use someone’s preferred pronouns. And yet, when Senate Chairman Tim French was addressed as “Madam Chairman”, he was not pleased. Not one bit.

To the DOJ/FBI who remain, Your new bosses are going to order you to do unconstitutional things. Unlawful things. Things to achieve their fascist agenda. Claiming "you were only following orders" did not cut it at the Nuremberg trials. It will not work here either. Proceed accordingly. America

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

KNOW YOUR
RIGHTS
IN CASE OF ICE:
CONOCE TUS DERECHOS
EN CASO DE ENCUENTRO CON ICE:

DO NOT OPEN YOUR DOOR.
ICE cannot enter your home without a warrant signed by a judge.
Tell the agents to show you the warrant by sliding it under the door.
NO ABRAS TU PUERTA.
ICE no puede entrar a tu casa sin una orden firmada por un juez. Diles a los agentes que te muestren la orden deslizándola debajo de la puerta.

ASK THEM
TO LEAVE.
If ICE doesn't have a warrant, tell them you do not consent for them to enter your home and ask them to leave. At work, ICE cannot enter employee-only areas without permission.
2
PÍDALES QUE SE VAYAN.
Si ICE no tiene una orden judicial, diles que no das tu consentimiento para que entren a tu casa y pídeles que se vayan. En el trabajo, ICE no puede ingresar a áreas exclusivas para empleados sin permiso.

REMAIN SILENT.
You have the right to remain silent.
If the agents ask you questions, tell them,
"I wish to remain silent."
PERMANECE EN SILENCIO.
Tienes derecho a permanecer en silencio.
Si los agentes te hacen preguntas, diles:
"Deseo permanecer en silencio".

This comment on r/fednews really stood out to me. Trump and Musk want people to think they're firing do-nothing "bureaucrats," but they're really getting rid of people dedicated to serving this country and keeping it operational. I hope these stories get told.

I lost my job. USDA Forest Service.

My probation was up next week.

I did everything right. I took a GS-7 role with a master’s degree just to get my foot in the door. I spent years doing seasonal fieldwork for low pay, working in remote places, gaining experience, and building skills, just for a chance at a permanent position. I was about to be a GS-9. I wrote NEPA reports. I conducted field surveys. I worked fire support. I dedicated myself to this work because I believed in it.

Public lands don’t manage themselves. The wildlife, watersheds, and forests we protect don’t just stay protected without people on the ground making it happen. My coworkers and I took on that responsibility, often in places most people never think about but that matter more than they know.

And now? Just like that, I’m out.

Edit: I’ve consistently supported progressive policies and have voted Democrat in every national and local election since I was 18. I do appreciate folks asking, I have some coworker having a serious 'leopards ate my face' moment right now.

So, conservatives pressured Obama into becoming the 1st POTUS to release visitor logs. Bush didn’t do it before him. Trump didn’t do it after him. But Biden did. Trump is back again & not releasing them again. A reminder of how asymmetric our politics are

Trump White House will not release visitor logs - Washington Examiner

For months, transparency advocates have pressed Trump to disclose who he and his staff will be meeting with on a routine basis, which former President Joe Biden did monthly.

His next move is to declare martial law. I was at CPAC. I was at January 6. I filmed Michael Flynn at Rod of Iron. He’s putting them all in once They’re breaking the laws so they can declare a national emergency and then it’s over so I don’t know what you guys have to do but you better do it soon.

Mahomes final numbers will look average due to the garbage time stat padding against a soft prevent defense. The reality is he played an all time horrible game until he was down by 34.

That “HE GETS US” ad is funded by an extreme right wing org. Using Johnny Cash’s cover of Depeche Mode’s “Personal Jesus” - a scathing critique of right-wing televangelists preying on the unwary - is a spectacular self-own.

You really could not cook up a more effective anti-gambling PSA than the sportsbooks paying out less than 50/50 odds on the Super Bowl coin toss. A big blinking neon sign that says THE ODDS WILL NEVER BE FAIR

I can’t believe how many people voted Mahomes on the top 5. He wasn’t close to being deserving of any votes this season. He had numbers comparable to seasons that Brady had when people said he was no longer elite.
