There is no reason for the court to not intervene when the Trump administration has explicitly violated the law and is imposing harm on innocent people who were residing in the United States legally. This will beget oppression for everyone. Month three and permissions are being placed.

Like the fundamental issue with trying to go for a manned OHP equivalent is that the threat environment is so much worse now that you're still putting a lot ship, a lot of systems, and a lot of people in a not particularly well defend basket -- and that last category is a real kicker

This photo, file 468, from the Epstein files that includes Donald Trump has apparently now been removed from the DOJ release.
AG Bondi, is this true? What else is being covered up? We need transparency for the American public.

WOW: The DOJ has DELETED an image from its release of the Epstein files that shows photos of Trump in a drawer.
Yesterday, we noted that this image — file 468 — likely slipped through the cracks while officials were attempting to hide materials pertaining to Trump.
Now, it’s gone.

I think this strengthens the case for Stancilism.
Immediate post pandemic economy was *weird* in a way that made it hard to compare it to similar years.
But we've got low unemployment and low inflation now. Very hard to make the case that now is worse than the Volcker shock.

49. The game isn't over by far. But make no mistake: we are winning. That's something to be proud of. It's something to accelerate. It's nothing to take for granted. And it's certainly no time to take Yglesias' advice and fumble the ball so the other team won't feel so sad. /fin

Of course mistakes were made. They always are. But if Trump could win running the most dogshit insane campaign in American history, color me skeptical that one PAC running ads about him that weren’t mean enough was what made voters forget January 6. To say it is to refute it!
