I clearly see the Supreme Court's tariff case differently than legacy media. If you appreciate independent, news, information and analysis and want to support pro-democracy media, sign up for Democracy Docket. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth violated Sen. Mark Kelly’s First Amendment rights by moving to strip him of his retired military rank for reminding troops in a video last year that they are obligated to refuse illegal orders, a federal judge ruled Thursday. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

All this talk about “reclassifying” what counts as a profession is a distraction from the real trend..women-dominated fields like nursing, teaching, social work, counseling, PA programs, physical therapy, are losing funding, while male-dominated sectors keep the capital flowing. This is Project 2025
This will happen in others as well.
Whoa: A federal court just barred Texas from using its new congressional map, drawn by the GOP to target Dems. "Substantial evidence shows that Texas racially gerrymandered the 2025 Map." Court says the old map must be used in 2026. Appeals are certain. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

If your city is next, mutual aid and neighborhood watch networks are the most important things to scale up, but whistles are a great tool to get people taking the first step. linktr.ee/apwhistles
If reports that ICE/CBP swine will leave the Chicago area to terrorize some other place are true, might I suggest that we pivot too? Share our mutual aid/resistance knowledge with folks in Baltimore or wherever these swine go next? Send extra whistles, plus information about strategy? @dansinker.com

Barack is gonna put Trump into his grave if he keeps popping up like this. There is only one personality that can compete with Trump in American politics at the moment, and it’s him. And if there is one thing Trump REALLY hates, it’s Barack.
Obama: When he was asked to give the trump administration a grade, he said they deserved an A. These are the same folks who put secret war plans in a group chat. You don't think there's anything they could be doing better? No room for improvement?

Most of the reactions of his supporters are making fun of demonstrators. Not fear of violence. Because there is virtually ZERO violence, and when there isn’t a huge presence of federal armed personnel there is ZERO.
Trump: "Don't forget I can use the Insurrection Act. 50% of the presidents almost have used that. And that's unquestioned power."

Mike Johnson is double plus untruthing.
Johnson: "Grijalva should be working for her constituents right now. I don't know what she's doing. I keep seeing their political stunt videos. She should be in her office. She should be working or in the district for her constituents" (Grijalva is not in fact a Rep. b/c Johnson refuses to seat her)
