The Roman Consul Lucius Cassius Longinus Ravilla (Cassius) was famous for his question: “Cui bono?” (Who benefits?) as a principle of criminal investigation. It still applies.

The law applies to everyone. Enforcement should go a bit higher up the chain of command.

Hey Megyn Kelly, 14-year-old Eloise would like a word: “If my voice makes you uncomfortable, good… because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.” Sound up! 🔥🔊 1/2

A bit of insight concerning the American justice system - as it is applied to immigrants. Hint, as an American citizen, this falls far short of the standard of fairness and justice I was raised to expect. We need to do better. www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/wp-content/u...

On this day in 1868, the 14th Amendment was ratified. The text is just as clear and relevant today as it was back then. Donald Trump is trying to erase this.

The world needs more Bourdain's and less Netanyahu's 😔 #ffs

Anthony Bourdain sits at a traditional Persian tea house in Iran, smiling with a cup of tea in front of him, surrounded by ornate decorations and locals. Below the image is a quote attributed to him:

"Iran was mind-blowing. My crew has never been treated so well by total strangers everywhere. We had heard that Persians were nice. But nicest? Didn’t see that coming." – Anthony Bourdain

Ms Noem’s commitment to these freedoms seem… subject to interpretation. Perhaps the people of South Dakota really do support the Constitution. I hope that they do.

RFK Jr.‘s extreme anti-vax views — and his related conflicts of interest — were a huge problem during his confirmation process. So he promised not to change the vaccine advisory panel. Today, he fired every single expert on that panel. It's a public health disaster.

In order to make a substantial impact, evidence has to be made clearly understandable and brought forward on multiple sources. Then Legislature and Judicial must be prepared to act swiftly and definitively.

Something tells me the Chief Justice won’t be over the moon about the latest bleat from the madman in the White House: “If Justice Roberts and the United States Supreme Court do not fix this toxic and unprecedented situation IMMEDIATELY, our Country is in very serious trouble!”

Country to be SAFE. It is our goal to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, and such a high aspiration can never be done if Radical and Highly Partisan Judges are allowed to stand in the way of JUSTICE. STOP NATIONWIDE INJUNCTIONS NOW, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE. If Justice Roberts and the United States Supreme Court do not fix this toxic and unprecedented situation
IMMEDIATELY, our Country is in very serious trouble!

Judge AliKhan says of the Trump administration's move to rescind the OMB memo and then claim everything is fine an apparent effort to "to overcome a judicially imposed obstacle without actually ceasing the challenged conduct. The court can think of few things more disingenuous." She is NOT happy.

By rescinding the memorandum that announced the freeze, but “NOT . . . the federal funding
freeze” itself, id., it appears that OMB sought to overcome a judicially imposed obstacle without
actually ceasing the challenged conduct. The court can think of few things more disingenuous.
Preventing a defendant from evading judicial review under such false pretenses is precisely why
the voluntary cessation doctrine exists. The rescission, if it can be called that, appears to be nothing
more than a thinly veiled attempt to prevent this court from granting relief.
