How many actions has Trump taken in office this term would not have been undertaken had the Supreme Court not given the president broad immunity in Trump v US? Certainly many. Most?

BLUMENTHAL: Was the Capitol attacked on J6?
TRAYNOR: The actions on January 6 were deeply troubling to watch, but I'm not going to characterize it
B: You are perpetuating a lie. I don't know how you can continue as a district court judge, let alone serve on court of appeals. Frankly it's shameful.
Trump is mired in an illegal war that's destabilizing the world while spiking inflation & immiserating Americans, a key part of the govt remains unfunded, & Rs who control Congress are fixated on...spending taxpayer $ for a vanity ballroom Trump vowed would be privately funded
A complete clown show

There’s a lesson there.
Wouldn't it be nice if you could say goodbye to TurboTax and file your taxes for free, online, and directly with the IRS?
I have a bill to get that done.
"All we say to America is, 'Be true to what you said on paper.'"
These words — spoken by MLK Jr. shortly before he was killed on this day in 1968 — ring just as true now.
Let's honor his legacy by continuing the fight for social and economic justice.
Pam Bondi’s portrait was taken down at DOJ and tossed in a trash bin soon after her firing. MS NOW obtained the photo. The move reflects how deeply unpopular she was among career officials. Ken Dilanian & Carol Leonnig scoop www.ms.now/news/pam-bon...
Future generations won’t believe these trees existed.
They will read about 1,500-year-old cedars and 2,000-year-old redwoods and think we made them up—like dragons or griffins.
But right now, we have the chance to make sure the story ends differently. Don’t let the last ancients become myths.
When I first started out as a journalist I thought it paid to have a background in US history when covering America. Then I thought it would probably be better to be a constitutional lawyer with expertise in jurisprudence. Now I think it would be useful to be a psychiatrist.
Think of how bad things must be for a Supreme Court Justice to feel he has to explain why it's a good idea to have laws enacted by legislators instead of decreed by wannabe dictators
Mercury was only 50 arcminutes (0.8°) above a very young waxing crescent Moon this evening. KAS member Pete Mumbower captured this image from his home in Vicksburg, MI.
Yeah sure Storm the Capital, Change Laws of the Constitution, force Americans to get and pay for unobtainable requirements to vote..to weed out the (avg) of 4 illegal immigrant votes per Election
For 50 years, the median wage of hourly workers stagnated or declined while the stock market and CEO pay skyrocketed.
Is it any wonder why so many feel abandoned by the system? People lose faith, and a demagogue fills the void.
This is why we must fix the system. AOC is right.
AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."
Jeffrey Epstein's December 20, 2016 email to Bill Gates: "come to visit the island. new administration people visiting."
What was the upcoming administration in December2016? Oh!
Amazon Web Services hosts massive surveillance systems for both ICE and DHS.
Citizens Bank provides nearly $1 trillion in credit & bonds to private prison companies.
AT&T has a $147 million contract to provide communications services to DHS.
Know who is profiting from ICE’s cruelty.
MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”
Ossoff: "She got her new insurance quote & it's $700 more per month than what she's paying now. She's diabetic. She had surgery a few months ago for something else. She told me she cried again bc she realized she's gonna have to cancel her insurance. She believes she might die bc of a policy choice"
The Honduran-born Charlotte resident filed a police report after the officers let him go.
Racial profiling, no warrant, no due process; but what else can one expect from a regime committing extrajudicial murder on the high seas?
Trump's gotta go.
On October 18th, millions of brave Americans will stand up and peacefully protest against the authoritarian disease metastasizing under Donald Trump.
No Thrones. No Crowns. No Kings. @gtconway.bsky.social
ICE threw me and other protestors to the ground on Friday because we dared to stand up for our neighbors. I’m okay, but our communities aren’t.
We can't afford apathy or inaction from our leaders right now. Abolishing ICE is a moral necessity.
The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.
The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.
Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.
The list goes on and on.
Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
Thank you. My father was a US Marshal. Watching the Trump administration pervert so many of the rules & laws of our constitution, & country is very hard to stomach. I knew immediately moving Maxwell to the camp had to be a bribe to get her to cover for Trump. Trump & his administration are evil.
