ICEblock, which allows users to alert others to the geographical location of ICE officers, is the top social networking app in the App Store right now after Karoline Leavitt condemned it from the podium yesterday.

NEWS A federal judge blocks RFK Jr. from dismantling U.S. healthcare agencies, finding the plan violated the Administrative Procedure Act. She ends the ruling with these thoughts on the separation of powers. Doc ag.ny.gov/sites/defaul...
Circling back to the separation of powers principles covered earlier in this decision, the Executive Branch is vested with the power and is imbued with the responsibility to faithfully execute the laws which govern the governance structure of our country. The Executive Branch does not have the authority to order, organize, or implement wholesale changes to the structure and function of the agencies created by Congress. As Judge Smith in this district court recently warned when presented with the declining depth of civics education in public schools, “we may choose to survive as a country by respecting our Constitution, the laws and norms of political and civic behavior, and by educating our children on civics, the rule of law, and what it really means to be an American, and what America means. Or, we may ignore these things at our and their peril.”

The Big Ugly Bill would have zero support if the 38% would stop buying the lie that the only people who are going to lose Medicaid are undocumented immigrants! 📌 The idea that undocumented immigrants are draining Medicaid is a political talking point, not a fact. #VoteNo

Aside from all the dangerous things he said today, this moment reveals his Swiss cheese of a brain. He completely misunderstands the question and turns it into a monologue about himself. Just as bad, if not worse, than any of Biden's lapses. And his toadies all just silently ignore his confusion.

It sounds like reductio ad absurdum, but so did the argument that the president would be immune from prosecution if he ordered Seal Team 6 to kill his political opponents. Then the Court said yeah, actually, he can't be prosecuted for that because giving orders to the military is an official act.

If Trump then makes an example of women who tried to vote by publicly flogging 1,000 of them, is he immune from prosecution because enforcing his executive order is an "official" act? Can he pardon everyone who carries out the floggings? Seems like the Court has said "yes" to all of it.

If the president issues an executive order rescinding women's right to vote, are women not allowed to vote until the Supreme Court makes a decision a year or two later? If women try to vote anyway, can they be detained indefinitely by federal agents on the pretense of being suspected illegal aliens?

The Supreme Court’s birthright citizenship decision shreds the very notion of Constitutional rights It effectively permits any president to enact an unlawful Executive Order which abrogates our freedoms And that Order will stand against each US citizen unless they sue the government individually

Moreover, part of the Supreme Court’s role is to resolve conflicts in how states define Constitutional rights In Dobbs and now the birthright citizenship case, SCOTUS is CREATING tensions Meaning it’s possible a child born in NY could be a citizen, but one born in Alabama might be denied Insanity

Miami just canceled its November election & pushed it to 2026. No public vote, just canceled. Mayor Suarez & Joe Carollo get to stick around an extra year. This feels like a power grab. If one city can delay elections for “participation,” what’s to stop others from doing it to silence opposition?
