Alright. That means the Supreme Court would let democrats keep their re-drawn maps, too, right? Right?
BREAKING: The Supreme Court has permitted Texas to keep its newly redistricted, GOP-favorable congressional map in 2026.

Kagan, Sotomayor and Jackson dissent.

This is how sociopathic and evil Trump is.

He’s using murder (Venezuelan fisherman) to distract from pedophilia.

In September, I went to Greece to report on its rapid move away from coal.

Despite getting ~50% of power from coal a decade ago, it'll be coal free next year. Solar is booming.

It's a stunning shift — but not without challenges for Greece's coal region.

Next year, Greece will complete its coal phaseout, a success for the energy transition. But Western Macedonia residents feel left behind.

The president fails to realize how deeply Somali Americans love this country.

We are doctors, teachers, and elected leaders working to make our country better.

We will not let Trump intimidate or debilitate us. My op-ed:

Spotify has laid off thousands in recent years, while reportedly paying artists $0.003 per stream.

Spotify profits rose 28% in Q3. Its CEO is worth $9.8 billion. It's making money off ICE recruitment ads.

Don't you think it's time put a wrap on corporate greed and exploitation?

Trump went into the presidency as a money making operation and is running the country into the ground, like he did his businesses. When the #Dems get back control I hope they pass laws & provide guardrails re' taxes, health, strick enforcement of emoluments & expanding the #SCOTUS to name a few.

We stand in total opposition to colonialism. Today’s system of Aboriginal Title and fee-simple treaty lands is still rooted in racist doctrines like Discovery and terra nullius treating Indigenous peoples as subjects, not sovereign nations with equal standing.
