Another Bad Day in Court for Trump

Today, as Trump was busy trying (and failing) to convince his own people that “affordability” is a word made up by Democrats, the courts were having a field day with him.

The “protect women” crowd hasn’t said a word about the Cornell rapists… It’s like they almost don’t actually care about women and abuse trans folks just to prop up their misogyny.

Current Republican governor, and re-election nominee Greg Abbott has one big plan: Texas school districts must receive even less money - not less from the state, but less from their own taxpayers - as a Republican-imposed state requirement. www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston...

You know, if you *really* cared about the wellbeing of women in college, instead of carping about the statistically insignificant number of trans athletes in sports minding their own business, you’d be railing against these Cornell fraternity cretins who drugged and gang-raped a passed-out women:

Norway produces more oil than Venezuela. And yet, between January and August 2026, electric vehicles made up 97.8 percent of all new cars sold in that country. Moving to EVs is often based on intelligence, not need. Which is why it lags in the notoriously short-sighted and stupid United States.

But, as I wrote in my newsletter, these 8th circuit judges should actually be impeached. We simply can’t have “a judicial system” if Republican judges are going to literally defy the *Republican* Supreme Court just to try to give the GOP one more House seat.

Incredible. First Secretary Mullin claimed that DHS had identified 15,903 noncitizens on Nevada’s voter roll. Then DHS officials told a skeptical Nevada, no no no, that’s just people we flagged. Here are the names of 185 people we KNOW aren’t citizens. All 185 were citizens. DHS got 100% wrong.

When the Department of Homeland Security sent Nevada a list of 185 names last month that it claimed identified noncitizens who had been improperly allowed to register to vote, state election officials got to work.
On Tuesday, the state sent a strongly worded rebuke to the federal government: Every single person on the list was a lawful citizen.
"As for the 185 individuals, our records indicate that they were citizens," Greg D. Ott, a deputy attorney general in Nevada, wrote, according to a copy of a letter sent to Department of Homeland Security officials obtained through open records requests.
"You have provided nothing of substance to suggest otherwise."

Following the meeting, Ms. Vogt sent a clarifying email to Nevada officials. "I also wanted to be sure I clarified that we did not reduce the 15,903 to 185," she wrote. "We've manually reviewed some of the 15,903 and confirmed 185 are not U.S. Citizens."
Now, Nevada officials are saying even that 185 number is wrong. They also took issue with a letter D.H.S. sent them in early September, in which the agency reiterated its initial claims about nearly 16,000 noncitizens on the rolls and pressured state officials to review each case in a letter to Nevada officials in early September.

Rep. Clyburn says we need to get the Trump regime out of office before meaningful change can be made in healthcare: We have... three separate co-equal branches. And what we’ve allowed to happen in all too many instances is the merging of all of that. We seem to be a budding, a budding autocracy.

Siena poll. Texas Democrat (Hinojosa) leads incumbent Republican (Abbott) by 4 points. While this result is probably at least somewhat wrong, there is clearly a move to Democrats underway in Texas in 2026. Coupled with the Democratic enthusiasm to vote, by Election Day Democrats will win some races.

Any sweeping systemic change you want to make in the United States has to begin with adding seats to the Supreme Court in 2029. No major reform bill will survive the current court. No civil rights law, no anti-corruption law, no wealth tax, nothing.

Donald Trump is so stupid he thinks signing an Executive Order is like signing a law that affects all Americans. It is not. An Executive Order is basically a press release to the public. Executive Orders affect only federal agencies (until voided by Congress or the courts), but not the public.
