Protecting his stock portfolio while ripping away health care from 17 million Americans. This is Washington at its worst. We need to ban Congressional stock trading.

NEW: SCOTUS shoots down a federal judge’s effort to protect eight men from being expelled—without due process—to South Sudan, where they face torture and death. Dissenting, Sotomayor says the court’s “indefensible” decision makes it complicit in “lawlessness.” www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...
SOTOMAYOR, J., dissenting
adjudicating this case. But if this Court wishes to permit the Government to flout the fundamental rights guaranteed by the Due Process Clause, it cannot avoid accountability for that lawlessness by tasking the lower courts with inventing a rationale. The Court's continued refusal to justify its extraordinary decisions in this case, even as it faults lower courts for failing properly to divine their import, is indefensible.

"In a democracy, power implies responsibility. The greater the power that defies law the less tolerant can this Court be of defiance. As the Nation's ultimate judicial tri-bunal, this Court, beyond any other organ of society, is the trustee of law and charged with the duty of securing obedience to it." Mine Workers, 330 U.S., at 312 (Frankfurter,
J., concurring in judgment). This Court continues to invert those principles. Today's order clarifies only one thing:
Other litigants must follow the rules, but the administration has the Supreme Court on speed dial. Respectfully, I dissent.

A U.S. citizen who was arrested for filming an ICE raid at Home Depot is suing the federal government for $1 million— and I hope he gets every penny. THIS‼️ When being transported, Garcia heard agents boasting about how many ‘bodies’ they had gotten that day and saw them celebrate with high fives.

Trump’s big abomination of a bill will slash tax credits for families and small business owners who get healthcare coverage through the marketplace.   This will cause premiums to SOAR, leading to more stress and creating yet another barrier that would prevent New Mexicans from getting healthcare.

‘A piece of garbage’: Fmr. Sen. Jon Tester says GOP bill is anti-farmer and hurts rural America
House Republicans just managed to pass its jam-packed, multi trillion-dollar spending bill to fund Donald Trump’s second-term agenda. It includes major cuts and changes to Medicaid and SNAP in order to deliver large tax cuts to the wealthy. “It is a piece of garbage,” former Democratic Senator Jon Tester of Montana told Ali Velshi. Tester says, like Trump’s tariffs, it will hurt farmers and worsen pre-existing problems in rural America, which could lead to “an even bigger mass exodus” of people out of those areas. “It doesn’t deal with the issues,” he says. “It puts a band aid over the issues in production and agriculture, just like it puts a band aid over our national debt.”

GOP won’t install Jan. 6 plaque honoring law enforcement, Democrats say
More than three years after it was approved by Congress, a plaque honoring members of law enforcement for defending the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, is instead sitting in a Capitol basement utility room.
