They turned their back on the Constitution and Democratic faithful by funding a government that is being run like the personal fiefdom of a petty king. They are enabling Trump to continue his lawless regime. They are complicit in what comes next under Trump

A federal grand jury refused to convict a protester for throwing a sandwich at an armor-clad border agent.
The prosecution was no laughing matter. But the jokes write themselves—and are emblematic of Trump's out-of-touch, Keystone Cops response to defeat.

I wish newspapers wouldn't treat all these executive orders as though they all have teeth and power and stuff. Lots of them are just the fulminations of a geriatric clown and mean nothing or will be overturned in court or are just distractions from what Trump wants to hide about his Epstein crimes.

"Monday’s [SCOTUS] ruling would be offensive to the rule of law in any scenario, but for Chief Justice John Roberts, in particular, to do so in a case involving the Education Department, in particular, it is little more than ... laughing in the face of Americans and the rule of law."

Sotomayor, in dissent, wrote that "it is the Judiciary’s duty to check ... lawlessness, not expedite it." Also: In two Sunday essays, a contrasting reality of this moment.

Just in case anyone wants a reminder of how Trump helped create the situation he's now using as justification to bomb Iran. abcnews.go.com/Politics/ira...
What was in the Iran nuclear deal and why did Trump withdraw the US from it?
Known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA, the deal followed two years of negotiations during the Obama administration.

See the attached letters (at link below) from 14 House Democrats to the Capitulating Law Firms. The letters are truly extraordinary and should cause the firms to re-think their surrender, notify their malpractice insurers, and hire criminal defense counsel.
Holy crap. Here are 91 pages of letters that 14 House Democrats just sent to the nine law firms that have paid off Trump to not attack them.

Isn't the purpose of a military base to defend, not to need to be defended? But also the logic of "our aggressive incursion will save you from aggressive incursions" is pretty War Is Peace. Also Greenland's hatred for Vance is a beautiful thing.
