SCOTUS tells Trump no on deployment of Illinois Nat’l Guard, finding a valid exception to the Posse Comitatus Act doesn’t exist. Huge loss for the Trump Administration. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

⚡️ Trump’s Greenland talk is a distraction.
Look at the pattern: Trump floats Greenland whenever he needs to bury a U.S. scandal. He knows the media’s coverage circus will bury what he really fears.
👉 Want to bet more Epstein documents are released over the holidays?

really cannot be emphasized enough that bari weiss has literally never done journalism. i don’t mean that in the pejorative sense. i mean that in the “has never performed the job she was hired to do” sense
One explanation for Bari killing the story is that she did so as a public act of fealty to the administration. But another is that, as an inexperienced journalist, she doesn’t understand that a refusal to go on the record is a kind of comment in and of itself

From “investigative powerhouse to a stenographer for the state.” Nice.
Congrats, Bari. You’ve made a story about killing the rule of law into a story about killing our democracy.
Brilliant editorial decision. 🏆

This is horrible. Trump and his crew shut down USAID, which has led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people, and they had no idea what they were doing or what would be the consequences. Completely immoral.
