How is a lower court supposed to apply an unreasoned SCOTUS order to future cases? SCOTUS thus becomes the only court that can decide certain issues. Are those cases supposed to go to SCOTUS at the MTD stage? It's insane. No wonder the district and circuit judges have had it.

No, we've been saying it for decades. When it comes to governing, being a "business man" is meaningless. In fact, it's far more likely to be a liability. And when the "business man" in question is a corrupt, senile, narcissist it's an anchor around your neck in the middle of the ocean.

Today marks 250 years since a small group of newspaper editors, farmers, and soldiers signed a document declaring our nation's independence — a truth that feels self-evident now but was revolutionary then.
What a privilege us Americans have, to live in a nation that every one of its inhabitants can shape. What an honor us New Yorkers have, to look out over our city's waters from the shores where so many Americans bravely entered their country for the first time.
Today and all days, let us remember that patriotism is not pretending our nation is without flaws. Patriotism is every act of righteous dissent — because loving our country means fighting for the best version of it.
Happy Fourth of July, New York City.

He doesn't know that because he flees the state everytime things get hard.

Amazing that a party so afraid of socialism takes no issue with the President's attempts to set the price of a commodity. They also loved it when the gov took an ownership stake in a private American company. I'm starting to think their renewed communism/socialism claims may not be in good faith.

Ok, thank you for the correction. I hope he holds to this. I volunteered for him when I was in law school in Philadelphia and he has been an enormous disappointment, IMO.

They'll certainly have Fetterman's vote. Fortunately there are republican senators who are less crazy than that fat fuck.

Imagine the kind of person you'd have to be to be Ken Paxton's mistress? Makes my skin crawl how disgusting these people are. Ken Paxton is one of the most toxic fake christians in America.

John Fetterman needs to spend the rest of his life being berated everywhere he goes for utterly betraying the people who elected him. He is irredeemable trash and a fucking pathetic useless nothing.

The sad part is that while it wasn't his best work, it was the best he could do with the four working braincells he has left. He's got the same look in his eyes lately that my grandmother had just before she could no longer remember my name.

"Gave my life to Christ" by living a life with values that are diametrically opposed to everything Jesus stood for. Fake Christians are the fucking worst.

Exactly, Rep gill with his little jerry curl hair parted to one side and glued to his head, is about as tough looking as Elizabeth Warren. The difference is, he actually thinks he's some picture of Texas masculinity. It's so transparent and SO pathetic.

This is what happens when your religion is America and you just use white jesus as your figurehead. These people do not resemble Christians in any way. This is not Christianity. These people are so lost and sad.

Chris O'Brien @obiwan617.bsky.social · 13/06/2026
It's wild how proudly trashy these people are. Also, Rep Gill is about as manly as my grandmother. So many sad Texas men who are so obviously gay so they go on tv to question other people's manhood. Like Cruz. There are no bigger pussies than these sad cases. Fox News is such a cesspool.

I think the dems are going to need to play by Trumpian rules until there can be agreement on rules that apply to everyone. No more trying to be the only adults.

The WaPo editorial board when Republicans gerrymander in Texas versus when Democrats gerrymander in Virginia.
Screenshot of an online opinion article by the Editorial Board. The headline reads, "The Texas gerrymander freakout," with the subheadline, "What's happening in the Lone Star State is not a threat to democracy." The publication date is August 20, 2025.​Screenshot of an online opinion article from The Washington Post by the Editorial Board. The headline reads, "Virginia plunges America deeper into the gerrymandering abyss," with the subheadline, "The redistricting scheme was always a power grab by Democrats. Voters went along with it."

Don’t sleep on the ending. After explaining that this is basic constitutional law, Paul ads something like “even some republicans would support that.” Perfect.

Artemis II crew sends picture of Earth to remind everyone that on this one tiny blue, insignificant, spinning marble are all of the Epstein files showing that the president of the United States is a pedophile. Really puts it all into perspective.

Wild that Trump lying about talks with Iran is enough to spike the market, but Iran saying "um, we've had no contact with Trump" has no effect at all. LOL. Such a scam.

His takeaway is that liberals screwed him by smearing him? Ok, good luck, asshole. The most corrupt president in history brainwashed a bunch of brainless sheep. That's why Crenshaw lost. He lost because he still thinks the enemy is liberals.

Glad he's finally saying something, but it should not go unnoticed that these people confirmed an obviously incompetent Trump yes-woman. They knew exactly why she was the nominee and they confirmed. Tillis's tone, while enjoyable, lacks accountability for his own part in this.

Yet. Every one of these articles and posts needs to include the qualifier "yet." Evil corrupt people are running the US. We can and must change that so we are able to enforce the law and hold these people accountable. Justice is coming. Remind them all of that. Every day.

If you want an illustration of just how weak the center-left is, here it is, folks. John Kasich begging a pedophile to unite the country. This is why we're here, make no mistake.
