The White House says its pro-Trump TV ads – run illegally at taxpayer expense – are “about reminding Americans to love their country.” How insulting. Instead they’re about reminding Americans to hate fascists who steal from them and trash their country.

Samuel Alito has recused himself from a Supreme Court climate case, after ethics watchdogs uncovered his fossil fuel stockholdings. Instead of relying on the justices to occasionally do the right thing, we need Congress to enact real SCOTUS reform.

Regardless of the merits of data centers, this is not an appropriate use of public lands, because it monopolizes the land for a single private entity rather than keeping the land as multi-use, defeating the whole idea of public lands. Let Valar purchase its own land if it needs space.

It's when a president illegally confiscates money appropriated by Congress for a specific purpose because he decides, after the appropriation becomes law, that he doesn't like it. The fact that the Republican Congress ignores that is another reason they should be voted out. bsky.app/profile/atru...

"differ on outcome of 2020 presidential contest" okay so we have an election denier in the race
ELECTION 2026
County clerk, nurse practitioner face off in secretary of state race
GOP's Ramona Goolsby, Democrat
Amanda López Askin differ on outcome of 2020 presidential contest
BY OLIVIER UYTTEBROUCK
JOURNAL STAFF WRITER
Two candidates vying to become New Mexico's next secretary of state appear to have starkly different views about the outcome of the 2020 presidential election.
"I always laugh because I get that question all the time — Joe Biden was sworn in," said Ramona Goolsby, the Republican nominee. Does she believe that former President Joe Biden was legitimately elected six years ago?
"I'm not going to speculate on that," Goolsby said. T'm going to say that he was sworn in, he was certified by Congress, and that he served." The Democratic nominee, Amanda López Askin, who has served as Doña Ana County clerk since 2018, said Biden decisively won the 2020 election, which she described as one of the most closely scrutinized presidential contests in history.

After nearly two years of claims on Fox News that Trump’s deportation operations were targeting the “worst of the worst,” the administration acknowledged that it's attempting to go after every person it thinks is in the U.S. without authorization.

Fox News has spent almost two years claiming Trump’s deportations are targeting “the worst of the worst.” The administration just contradicted that narrative.

The protests in India include the banner "Hum Auratein Azaad Hain" (translated as "We Women Are Free"). #HumAurateinAzaadHain #DUProtest #WomensSafety
• The Main Sign: Held aloft in the upper center by raised arms, a large white cardboard placard features handwritten text in black and red marker that reads: "Imagine if WOMEN felt as SAFE as MEN feel OFFENDED".
• Surrounding Protesters:
	• In the center foreground, a person with dark hair, glasses, and a blue medical face mask looks forward.
	• To the left, a person holds up a dark blue poster featuring a black-and-white portrait of a bearded public official with text at the top reading: "WHEN THE PRIME MINISTER IS SILENT".
	• To the right, another individual wearing a face mask holds a sign with handwritten Romanized Hindi script reading: "ACCHA UNCLE AAPKI SOCH ... MERE KAPDE HAI".
The image shows students and members of the Students' Federation of India (SFI) protesting for women's safety in New Delhi, India.
