Told my principal/boss this morning that I am retiring at the end of the fall semester. 32 years teaching is enough. Come December it will be a whole new adventure.

@radiofreetom.bsky.social Today’s Supreme Court decisions once again proves the point that elections matter. Republicans understand this. Democrats seemingly do not.

As much as Trump and his minions have been shooting themselves in the foot lately I am surprised any of them can walk.

@radiofreetom.bsky.social Seems our SecDef enjoys war crimes. I hope he is made to pay for his crimes but I fear President Trump will blanket pardon his administration before leaving.

Amanda Klasing: These boats were heavy with passengers, which means they weren't carry drugs. But Hegseth blew them up anyway and killed all who were on board. Why? For pure entertainment value, it seems.

@radiofreetom.bsky.social Mr. Nichols, what is your view-opinion on possible war crimes committed by our military troops? Venezuela, Caribbean/Pacific ocean “drug boat” destruction, the ongoing conflict in Iran? I have not heard of any troops refusing to carry out illegal orders.

Maybe, just maybe if we had a national Liberal party that coordinated with state and local liberal parties to grow liberal candidates. Thereby acting as a bulwark against ultra conservatives we wouldn’t have a Conservative Party that is running roughshod over our country as we speak.

If the supreme courts powerof ultimate judicial review is not established by the constitution but by "Marbury V Madison", maybe it is time that said authority is limited by legislation or constitutional amendment.

Trump’s ICE airport idea came after a radio host pitched it on Fox News | CNN Business
“Linda from Arizona,” a caller on Clay Travis’ conservative talk radio show, might deserve the credit or blame for ICE agents deploying to airports across the US today.

Stephen Miller is the smarmy power behind the Trump throne. If we really want to start the collapse of the Trump administration then Miller has to go. His hands are all over the DHS/ICE invasions of Democratic cities and states. Get rid of him and Trump is toast.

Andrew McCarthy of National Review on why Minneapolis police chief O'Hara had every right to keep his officers in charge of today's crime scene. McCarthy isn't buying the "federal supremacy is plenary and absolute, so state electeds must bow and obey" nonsense lately popular in MAGA circles.
National Review Andrew McCarthy screenshot reading: "To be clear, the federal agents have jurisdiction to investigate immigration crimes and any related obstruction. This does not change the fact that the state and local police have jurisdiction to investigate shootings on the streets of their cities, including shootings by federal agents. If the federal agents have immunity from prosecution or can get any state charges removed to federal court, those are legal matters that can be asserted and decided down the road. For now, the feds have no authority to tell the state and local police to vacate the scene of a legitimate state and local investigation. The feds have supremacy only in their legitimate spheres of enforcement; the states are still sovereign when it comes to their legitimate spheres, which include public safety and local law enforcement."

If the Sep. 2 boat really had "narco-terrorists" on board, questioning the survivors would have been a way to learn about how the organization worked, where more drugs were stashed, etc. But this isn't a counter-terrorism campaign. It's a shooting gallery with helpless targets.

Biggest mistakes I'm seeing in early reporting (thread): 1. Tariffmageddon isn't over: Lotsa tariffs to account for, but the average tariff rate is only down around one quarter. So most of the pain of Liberation Day is still with us.

Donald Trump, our very own Andrew Jackson. Many similarities between both of their administrations. Both defied the courts. Both drove the US economy into deep recession/depression. The US learned its lesson after Jackson. Hopefully we will learn our lessons after Trump.

Dems need to prepare for report due April 20 to POTUS on whether to apply Insurrection Act. Economy deliberately crumbling, global relations souring, stump speeches seem insufficient. Dems: align, litigate, work the press, reach / engage across political divides. #makeaplan #takeastand

If Trump is contemplating holding power of the president past his 2nd term this needs to be snuffed out right now. Not when we may be in the middle of a battle with those who would back trump. Be preemptive on this and crush it now.

If your senator or representative are Republican you should be contacting them concerning President Trumps tax increases. Tarrifs are a tax increase. Hammer them hard on this issue. Don't let up If your rep or senators is Dem ask why they are not calling Repubs and Trump on the same.

I wonder how many Americans who have a workable understanding of how our system of govt. works and how are freedoms are kept do not understand that the only way we can keep our system of govt. and freedoms is if we fight for them when confronted by those who are actively trying to take them away.
