I’m old enough to remember when we had a system of checks & balances that involved Congress, when Congress controlled the purse and legislated, and the president respected the Constitution & rule of law. I’m old enough to remember when a U.S. president wouldn’t want to be King George or a dictator.

Everything about John Roberts's approach to the Voting Rights Act makes sense when you remember that John Roberts has has always been hostile to the Voting Rights Act, never believed it was appropriate, and has spent most of his 45-year legal career working to hollow it out.
One of the Biggest Cases of the Supreme Court’s Term Is John Roberts’ Decadeslong Pet Project
If there’s one thing the Roberts court has been consistent on, it’s this.

Republicans are desperate to label peaceful and patriotic protests as anti-American. There is nothing more American than a joyous gathering of people peacefully telling their government they disagree. Our team is fanning out across CD-2. Join us. Bring your flag. @WellmanForMO #TeamWellman

Donald tried to make an example out of Portland & Portland replied with peaceful, joyful, naked protests that fully disarmed Donald's fascism. Portland showed us how to protest & we should carry that forward on Saturday. Well, maybe not the naked part.
New in PN: Scenes from Portland's imaginary insurrection

"I’ve been taking images that are nowhere near this one conflict driveway — ones of puppies & kids playing, & families having picnics — b/c the idea that Portland is burned down & a war zone is just preposterous" — @timdickinson.bsky.social

A drone attack on a train station in northeastern Ukraine earlier this month highlighted Russia's broader targeting of critical Ukrainian infrastructure that now is being carried out with greater precision thanks to advances in long-range drone technology that include onboard video feeds.
Russia makes more precise drones and is using them to attack Ukraine’s vital rail network

very funny that JD Vance has so little to do with his time that he goes on podcasts to defend 30-year-old men for saying how much they love Hitler
JD Vance dismisses Young Republicans who in a group chat said "I love Hitler" and joked about slavery and rape as "a bunch of kids" who "told stupid jokes" and adds that "most of the stupid things I did when I was a teenager and young adult, they're not on the internet."

NEW — I dug into the story of ICE abducting a 13-year-old boy in Massachusetts and moving him 500 miles across state lines without notifying his mother, local cop's complicity, and how the federal government's justification for such cruelty is already falling apart:
ICE took a 13-year-old they said had a gun. Local cops say he didn’t.
Now he's detained 500 miles away from his Massachusetts home.

Qatar gave Trump a $400M jet. Trump gave them a military facility on US soil.

The UAE bought $2B of Trump's stablecoin. Trump gave them access to rare AI chips.

Saudi Arabia invested $2B in Kushner's firm. Trump sold them $142B in arms.

If this isn't corruption, what is?

Popok: Why isn’t Mike Johnson swearing her in and allowing her to serve the people who elected her? Because she’s promised to be the 218th signature on the discharge petition related to the Epstein files.

What do I know and I'm not saying it's a magic bullet or anything like that but it sure seems to me that Dems should run hard on the Argentina bailout. Not anywhere near the worst thing Trump has done, but i suspect it's unusually clarifying.
Jeffries: "It's perplexing to us that Rs refuse to spend a dime to protect the healthcare of the American people, but somehow the Trump admin found $40b to bail out a right-wing wannabe dictator in Argentina in ways that are also going to continue to hurt our soybean farmers in Iowa & the Midwest"

People who make more than $300,000 should be the starting point for higher taxes. If the top 20 companies alone were to pay their fair share we wouldn't be in this position. We need major changes to our government.
