This supercut is likely to make Trump VERY upset. The difference between Trump and Obama is on full display, and the contrast is absolutely devastating. Watch until the end...

The Democratic Socialists want your children to be fed healthy nourishing food and receive the best possible medical care, and to do that they intend to raise taxes on a handful of corrupt and squalid pedophiliac monsters who have stolen 1000x more money than anyone can spend—well not in MY America.

Trump: "Almost anything my kids do -- if they buy a truck -- they have inside information"

Literally the Supreme Court upheld sodomy bans in 1986 and said homosexuality was worse than rape and nobody even talks about it

With this ruling, the birthright issue is not going away. The right hasn't really begun *organizing* around getting rid of the citizenship clause. Like Roe, this will be their fight for a generation. And if the Democrats just say "we won" and ignore it, like Roe, the Republicans will eventually win.

In addition to helping the billionaire class, this will make it easier for the Democrats to throw more money against Mamdani, AOC, and any other progressive who dares to challenge the establishment.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court ruled that states can ban transgender girls from school sports. This is a devastating ruling for trans students across the country who simply want the freedom to play with their friends.

A razor’s edge, for the most basic civil rights. They’ve gone so much further than rolling back the 1960s-era progress, as they were originally working to do. They’re now trying to roll back to well into the 19th century.

The outcome is thus: 5–4 that the Constitution protects birthright citizenship for the children of all immigrants. 6–3 that Trump's order is unlawful (because Kavanaugh says it violates a statute, NOT the 14th Amendment.) www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

Kavanaugh only concurred in the judgment on the grounds that legislation but not an executive order can change the scope of birthright citizenship. Today’s other decisions are horrific and on this they were one vote away from rolling back the constitutional status of citizenship back to Dred Scott.

IMHO, the Supreme Court is a *bigger* problem than Trump, and it should be the primary target for reform. Trump and Congress would both be very different under a law-abiding SCOTUS, which would have stopped government action clearly animated by racism and racially gerrymandered districts.

We wrote about the scale of the challenge and the need for energy R&D, and the Bush II Administration used our work to argue that we need R&D instead of deployment, rather than in addition to deployment. Some things are hard to control. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... www.nature.com/articles/27638

Agreed. Ship what works already, keep cost-reducing, while doing research, but never schedule breakthroughs, which even a place famed for breakthroughs (including a few you mentioned) couldn’t do. archive.nytimes.com/dotearth.blo...

A point that this piece only makes in passing, but is worth flagging, is that even for police violence, we are seeing rural areas deteriorate as urban areas improve, despite a media that still insists on glamorizing small-town life and viewing our cities as on fire. This is a pattern:

Popular Information popular.info?r=ubv7&utm_c... Trump changes park police rules to permit chases of non violent criminals. Killing bystanders.

SCOOP: A priest who is close to Trump successfully lobbied him to grant clemency to the fraudster David Gentile. Gentile privately indicated Father Frank Mann was paid for his help. EDNY prosecutors opened an investigation into the commutation. But it was closed by Trump political appointees.

Yep, the idea of a ‘carbon footprint‘ was developed by Ogilvy & Mather, a New York City-based British advertising and public relations firm working for BP: www.clf.org/blog/the-tru...

Now, I'm just a simple country law professor and a fairly average Episcopalian, but something about this strikes me as... unlawful.

Becky Sauerbrunn on Instagram, “I’m choosing to release this video today, January 13th, because right now the US Supreme Court is deliberating a case that could change the future of women’s sport.” An important video:

Sometimes they just tell us they are weaponizing the criminal justice system to push their political agenda.

The response to the ICE killing of Renee Nicole Good is not what the White House was expecting. Like with their hiding of the Epstein files, part of the fundamental problem they are facing is that the stories the Trump administration has built their movement on are being shown for their emptiness.

If calling a state secret police agent a murderer for committing murder will lead to more murder by the state secret police, it sure seems like the problem is with the secret police

This is the second time in three months a DHS agent called a US citizen a "bitch" as he shot her. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/whos-threa...

I’m old enough to remember the anti-genocide encampments y’all defamed.

Make it viral.

Law enforcement officers CANNOT use deadly force against a fleeing person fleeing unless they have a reasonable belief that the individual poses a danger to others (e.g., they know the person is armed). If in vehicle, the person must be threatening to use deadly force with the vehicle or other means

Mayor Jacob Frey: "They are already trying to spin this as an action of self defense. Having seen the video myself, I want to tell everybody directly that is bullshit."

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

Must read: Mahmoud Khalil speaks out for the first time since his arrest by the Trump administration in an exclusive letter, dictated over the phone to his family, from ICE detention in Louisiana.

Implying that DEI requires compromising high standards is very clearly accepting the premise that straight, cis, able-bodied white men are the best at everything. Stop doing it.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Jim Acosta announces on air that he's leaving CNN and says, "it is never a good time to bow down to a tyrant ... don't give in to the lies."

Under one of Trump's executive orders issued Monday, then-Justice Thurgood Marshall's 1987 speech marking the 200th anniversary of the Constitution would not be allowed to be taught at the military service academies. www.lawdork.com/p/trump-mali...

A truly horrifying Monday. In tonight’s Law Dork, I tried to inform about the anti-trans and anti-diversity military executive orders — and also capture the spirit of why Monday, writ large, was so bad. Here it is: www.lawdork.com/p/trump-mali...

And that's the smallest cost. Recall that Trump was impeached the first time for withholding Congressionally-approved military aid to Ukraine. That caused people to die. Money withheld for PEPFAR will cause people to die. Those people don't come back to life when the the funding restarts.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

Hang it in the Art Museum.
