Phang: So for this federal judge to be at his wit's end, but to still be giving the grace to these people to do the right thing, shows that he's really laying the foundation for them to be held in contempt.

Listen to shirleyosborne.com connect 4 "new" female archetypes to expose how patriarchy still tiers women’s labor. It’s the same historical global extraction machine—relying on unpaid labor and the systematic exploitation of Black women’s work.

Trump Administration Plans to Upend Head Start by Deregulating It

We’ve been saying from the start that the contractor was the problem. This is exactly why no-bid contracts are a bad idea. When there’s no real competition or oversight, taxpayers are often the ones left paying for the mistakes.

If the $1.776b slush fund and Trump tax immunity deal are really dead, then why bother to appeal, the judges decision in Trump v IRS that ruled they were dead?

You can't make this up: the Trump administration is arguing in court that even a cancer diagnosis isn't enough to claim an exemption from his draconian new Medicaid work requirements. Sickening — and all to fund even more tax cuts for the ultra-rich.

Supreme Court strikes down Trump’s attempt to eliminate birthright citizenship
Trump’s executive order came as the opening salvo in his across-the-board attack on all forms of immigration. But it also had grave implications for voting.

Alito’s standard for racial discrimination in the TPS ruling, that racism has to be the *sole* motivation to count as discriminatory, is so deranged that it could arguably cover neither Jim Crow nor slavery. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
This is a “color-blind” Constitution that the architects of Jim Crow could love. Many of the devices employed during segregation, such as poll taxes, grandfather clauses, and literacy tests, were superficially race-neutral. In fact, slavery itself could conceivably be race-neutral—after all, one does not need to be a racist to seek cheap labor for a profitable business!
