I taught middle school and we did not let our students talk like this. Even in the hallways, if they were heard saying using language like this they were quickly reprimanded.

Funny how their “originalism” dissipates when there’s a Republican/billionaire imperative at stake. I don’t think “originally” corporations were people, or presidents had immunity, or agencies couldn’t make “major” rules, or Congress couldn’t set terms of office. What a joke.

Civil Rights protests. My grandparents were not in favor and vocal about it. It upset me that they were so racist. It made me look at them differently. Sadly.

Me, on October 7, 2025. This is one of the videos they named in their lawsuit. emptywheel.net/2025/10/07/d...
Among other things Benny did on his cosplay cop caper was to post a video of protestors as they were being arrested, claiming they were being arrested for “VIOLENT ASSAULT.”

[A picture of a person in a red t-shirt with their hands behind their back. the T-shirt says, MAKE FASCISTS AFRAID. There's an ICE goon in a gray t-shirt, a plate vest, and shades.]

Of the Federal charges filed since then, just one has been from Broadview (it was assault, but even that one sounds like someone charged for being pushed by the Feds). If, in fact, these people weren’t charged — much less with assault — this would be slander. Since he was dolled up as a “Border Patrol Federal Agent,” even if they were arrested, this will be a privacy violation that might endanger any charges the Feds tried to file.

NEW: The Supreme Court, over the objections of the 3 liberal justices, grants a stay in the D.V.D. litigation, authorizing the Trump admin to resume third country removals without any notice to people being sent to countries they've never been to. The Court also agrees to hear the case in December.
TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 2026 CERTIORARI GRANTED 26-426 DEPT. OF HOMELAND SEC., ET AL. V. D.V.D., ET AL. (26A406) The application for stay presented to Justice Jackson and by her referred to the Court is granted. The February 25, 2026 order and judgment of the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts, case No. 1:25-cv-10676, are stayed. The application is also treated as a petition for a writ of certiorari, and the petition is granted. The parties are directed to brief and argue the following questions: (1) Whether the district court had jurisdiction over Respondents’ claims. (2) Whether the district court had authority to enter classwide declaratory relief and APA vacatur under 8 U. S. C. §1252(f)(1). (3) Whether the Government’s Guidance on third-country removals is unlawful under 8 U. S. C. §1231(b), the Due Process Clause, or FARRA/CAT and its implementing regulations. (4) Such other questions that the Government determines are appropriate for the proper disposition of the case. The Clerk is directed to establish a briefing schedule that will allow the case to be argued in the December 2026 argument session. The stay shall terminate upon the sending down of the judgment of this Court. Justice Sotomayor, Justice Kagan, and Justice Jackson would deny the application for stay.

Tho I actually like this post better. IMO, one smart response to these ads is to taunt GOP MoCs that Trump is still sitting on mountains of $$ and instead using taxpayer dollars to remind voters what a corrupt asshole he is.
The inept White House political propagandists are using our money on government-sponsored campaign TV ads for the sinking GOP. The latest commercial tries to rally the dwindling MAGA base by reminding them that Trump once posed as a fighter against warmongers and a corrupt political establishment, but the recycled ad just sharply reminds everyone that the lying Trump is the war-maker-in-chief and presides over the most corrupt presidential administration in U.S. history. You can’t use our tax dollars to fool us.
