Trump has lost two heavily whipped votes in the House on his signature economic policy in the last 24 hours.
This is a big f-ing deal.

In an extraordinary rebuke of Trump, and his signature economic policy, the House voted tonight to repeal Trump's tariffs on Canada 219-211.
Both the Senate and House have now voted to repeal Trump's tariffs on Canada.

U.S. District Judge Timothy Kelly, a Trump judicial appointee from his first term, tonight called bullshit on Trump and DOJ’s actions in a strong opinion protecting the due process rights of people whose pleas could be and often are ignored.
It’s a truly, unambiguously good and important opinion.

I will joke about her because she is ridiculously unprofessional and if she fears no consequences because she thinks her power is secure that is also very funny, as it is not. No one should be afraid of Pam Bondi, who will be known to history as the loser who couldn’t get a single grand jury vote.
You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.

So DOD risked civilian airspace to obliterate some fucking balloons; when FAA found out and asked them to stop they refused; FAA did what it had to keep people safe; when the public rightly freaked out, DOD relented, lied, and blamed the FAA.

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.
