If you are shocked this am that Trump’s government executed a search warrant against a Democratic Member of Congress and ignored a judge’s order then you haven’t been paying attention. Stop saying this isn’t how it works in the US. It is exactly how it works under Trump.

A federal judge dismissed a noncitizen voting case, stressing that only states — not the federal government — can decide who is qualified to vote. The decision could impact the future of proof-of-citizenship laws, a pillar of Trump’s crusade to restrict voting: demdock.com/4hydGAl

A federal district court just held that police use of Flock cameras without a warrant violates the Fourth Amendment. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
constitutionally collect this information about one car-and its driver-by
following that vehicle on public roadways over a month. But this leaves the
question of why is it the government's business where everyone goes all the
time? The government cannot go snooping through our personal lives and
business without an adequate basis to do so. That is what the Supreme Court
has said since its decision in Katz through its decision in Chatrie this year,
nearly sixty years later. It is not too much to draw the line at indiscriminate
mass surveillance.
No doubt, ALPR technology comes with remarkable benefits that the
Court cannot ignore. But the Fourth Amendment requires courts to draw a line when the cost is too great. Alaniz's search in just the ALPR system
provided him with more than 50 individual records of Kyle's whereabouts
across the country for an entire month. The Court finds that because the
ALPR systems Alaniz used to search Kyle's historical location information
intruded on her reasonable expectation of privacy in the whole of her physical
movements, it was a search under the Fourth Amendment. Based on the
information in the record, the only reason Alaniz conducted that search was
because he saw her license plate was from California. That search was not
supported by probable cause, and it was done without a warrant in violation
of Kyle's Fourth Amendment rights. That search also has a nexus to the
remainder of the traffic stop because Alaniz began following Kyle's car while

Sure, the 2024 election was one too, but 2026 might be the clearest intelligence test ever presented to the American electorate. Taken at face value, he's saying he stole hundreds of billions from the gov't, hid it somewhere Congress can't reach, and he pinky swears he will give you a piece. Really.

It seems like it should be a much bigger deal that Trump just completely fabricated a “deal” that he supposedly brokered between Putin and Zelenskyy to stop bombing energy infrastructure when both Russia and Ukraine denied it and never stopped bombing.

I look forward to the 2028 Democratic nominee turning to him in a debate and saying "Oh, you were secretly against the war? That means you were too weak to do anything about it. You couldn't remove your lips from Trump's ass long enough to stand up like a man, you pathetic coward."

Just 3 weeks ago, JD Vance tried to use the Marine Two helicopter to send his 9-year-old son to a golf lesson. The helicopter costs between $16K-$25K per hour to operate and is paid for by American taxpayers. He has also used it for multiple recent “house hunting” trips in the DC suburbs.

Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.

This particular criminalization of parental poverty, used to disproportionately pathologize Black women and steal their children, is called Jane Crow. And it's proliferating because of deliberately cruel, punitive administrative policies like what's happening to SNAP and Medicaid.
