It’s holding steady at $109 for the last hour or so. Market sees something we don’t. I believe the previous high during the war was $114.

Do you remember J6? Sure he has no “power” to prevent seating a new Congress just like he had no power to stop the election certification. Yet he sent a mob to do it anyway, take over Congress, and hang Mike Pence. And it got it the point of the House chambers being barricaded with guns drawn

Multiple things are true here. This is a fascist, authoritarian administration. It has not yet fully consolidated power. Some of its efforts to do so have been frustrated. Trump is a doddering, confused egomaniac who started an unpopular war that's costing everyday people a lot of money.

The Trump admin has been screwing with federal judges since the inauguration. The old status quo is over. Court orders matter to the extent the language can’t be weaseled out of. Getting yelled at by federal judges doesn’t matter all. No one needs to bring a toothbrush to court, that’s for sure.

I can’t believe no judge has said it before. They act in bad faith constantly starting in March 2025 when they deliberately disobeyed Judge Boaberg’s order to turn the CECOT planes around. Anything a judge wants to happen must be an absolutely clear order that they can’t wiggle out of.

She’s deferring to the travel of this DOJ attorney. She needs to stop. The DOJ can’t get away with sending new random people who the judges are nice to because they weren’t involved before. If attorneys don’t want to be held accountable for the actions of their employer they should resign.

She didn’t enter an order enjoining this because she trusted the gov’t. Which she had no reason to do. The witnesses obviously DGAF because they know they can’t be held in contempt. Nothing is going to happen besides yelling. Too bad for the 500 trees.

It’s not a revival of Christianity because they aren’t proselytizing to get people to go to church or convert. Christian nationalism is just white nationalism using religion as a proxy for whiteness.
