I can't help noticing the Supreme Court conservatives expressing the first doubt of a Trump assertion in oral arguments the day after the election day where every Republican running lost by 20 points. But they would never be swayed by such worldly things in their consideration of The Law, right?

It’s going to be cool when Trump hops on Air Force 1 to go golf for the weekend while everyone else is checking to see if their flight was one of the canceled ones.

A group of US women kicked out a Nazi, while a group of US men stood around doing nothing. People around the world are noticing that it is women who are leading the fight against fascists in the US. Whether it is Nazis or ICE.

Trump admin lowers FBI recruitment standards in a deeply ironic twist
The Trump administration has sought to portray itself as a meritocracy fit for only the most competent employees, despite all evidence to the contrary.

We shouldn't be surprised that the bar is being lowered to become an FBI agent. The bar is already on the ground to become a republican.

Michael Pham fled Vietnam at the age of 13. He was named bishop of San Diego a month ago. Today, he stood watch at a courthouse: ICE agents were “standing there covered with masks as we walked toward the courtroom. Eventually the agents scattered and went away” timesofsandiego.com/life/2025/06...

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

The correct way to connect the authoritarian presence in LA and the Big Beautiful Bill is that the bill gives the government the resources to do this in dozens of cities at once. So if you don't like what's happening in LA, it's coming to your town if the bill passes.

Three things about this comment: 1. Homan is a White House adviser who doesn't have the power to arrest anyone. Neither does Trump. 2. Trump once again acts like he's not in charge. "If I were Tom, I'd do it." Uh, doesn't he work for you? 3. THREATENING TO ARREST A GOVERNOR IS A FIVE ALARM FIRE

"On the trail, Trump declared he would deport massive numbers of 'criminal aliens.' When he came into office, however, he faced a problem: The vast majority of undocumented immigrants are law abiding. But he came up with an answer: Create fake crimes and thereby turn the law abiding into criminals."

Four times over the weekend Stephen Miller referred to the LA protests as an "insurrection." Not because it was one but because he, Trump and Homan were looking to gin up a pretext for clenching the federal government's fist against its opponents.
