They have already dealt with the meltdowns and now just do whatever they can to avoid that situation.

Our president, ladies and gentleman.

Totally.

I don't know you, but what you said here is also something I have said to myself many, many times. Some of us are not designed to care less. Solidarity.

This was my impression when I read Evicted by Matthew Desmond.

This is what I keep thinking. That this thing hasn't already been leaked by someone who is disgusted by what they read in it is astonishing to me. I know it's powerful people but there has to be someone with moral fortitude who has a relatively unredacted version.

If the founders wanted the president to be able to enact binding legislation on his own, they would have given him that power in Article II.

They say they're all originalists, but obviously they mean it only when it suits their agenda to be so.

Ugh, this timeline is so dumb.

Oh Sara, then even hockey probably won't save us.

This 10-minute highlight reel is so special if you are in a place where the BBC's video is not available: www.youtube.com/watch?v=73cV...

I've never seen anything like this.

And as an American I can't be happier that the Tartan Army will be in North America in 2026!

One of my editing projects this year was helping an author significantly decrease her word count on her habilitation (post-PhD book in European academia) so that it could be published by a university press. I learned so much about how to better support authors through that process.

Cue the emergency application to the Supreme Court's shadow docket. They'll reinstate it with a one-line order. Justice Sotomayor will issue a dissent. And the beat goes on.

It's all very, very broken.

It's honestly incredible that she managed to pass the bar in Florida (or any state). www.floridabar.org/directories/...

What? Do you mean that an incompetent lawyer who the Trump administration pegged to be a federal prosecutor didn't understand basic Fourth Amendment law? I'm shocked.

I looked it up and he never served, of course. I imagine most people who have been stationed on navy ships would never be so cavalier about blowing up random boats in the ocean.

These people are all so gross.

UM WHAT

Agreed, the Tara and Johnny schtick has gotten pretty stale.

To the Fox News talking heads and the MAGA that can't stop watching them, it doesn't matter. The operation had a cute name ("Operation Charlotte's Web"), and it offered the chance to praise Trump and ICE, mock liberals, and terrorize brown people.

(Fox News was on at the gym 😡)

Why am I searching for pro-deportation photos? I want to show them exactly what the divide looks like. I want them to see the MAGA protestors and the anti-ICE protestors side by side. This should make it clear to them there are still good Americans who care about community, solidarity, and justice.
