💥 This order clearly reflects that a federal judge does NOT just believe what the Acting AG Todd Blanche represents and has ordered him to basically “prove it.”

If you are the DOJ, it is unprecedented to lose 17 straight voting cases in 17 different courts without winning a single one. It's even more remarkable when 8 of them were decided by judges appointed by Trump. How long will the networks ignore this? How long will Trump?

The satellite that watches the eastern United States for storms went blind for 20 hours in July. NOAA cannot yet say why. Its backup sits weeks away from taking over. This is what a warning system looks like after the people who ran it were cut and its research arm marked for the axe.

The Odyssey is such a hit that apparently the author has already churned out a prequel called “The Iliad”? Typical Hollywood.

Buzz Aldrin is photographed by Neil Armstrong on the moon hours after Apollo 11 landed, 57 years ago tonight, July 20, 1969. 🇺🇸 It is believed 650,000,000 people were watching the landing on television. Buzz is now 96 years old

Canadian firefighters hauled ass to get down here when half of Los Angeles was on fire last year. What a characteristically classy way to repay that favor.

Do not fall for it. Trump has been laying the groundwork to justify massive interference in our midterms. It’s coming on Thursday. Don’t let him fool you.

BREAKING: A federal judge just nullified Trump’s $1.776 billion IRS “settlement,” ruling it had “no viable basis in law or fact,” finding there was never a real legal dispute, and referring Trump’s attorney to The Florida Bar for possible discipline.

Been trying to figure out what it reminds me of and it's "Main Street USA" at Disneyland. That's his aesthetic.

SHOCK NYT REPORT: DHS now admits the man ICE killed in Houston wasn't even their target. Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, a 35-year U.S. resident, was just driving to work when agents — with no body cameras — shot him dead searching for two other men who weren't even in the van. Gift link in reply.

I served this nation for 21 years under presidents of both parties. Six years ago today, I was forced to retire, following months of retaliation for a decision I made to defend our Constitution. I’ll always call out corruption, regardless of party — it’s the right thing to do.

Kasie Hunt asked Scott Jennings on live TV if McConnell would be willing to call in to CNN. The discomfort on Jennings’ face while he tried to bullshit his way around that answer was really something. Methinks we still aren’t getting the whole story.

Me pretending to injure myself at work so they'll send me home.

Making it up as he goes. 77 million Americans voted for this dumbass.

The right-wing attack on birthright citizenship is not just about birthright citizenship itself. As MAGA’s reaction to the Supreme Court ruling proves, it is part of their opposition to a broader ideal, that “All men are created equal.” www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Shapiro: When you have a president of the United States who is focused on making money for himself, that corruption leaves us all worse off because it means he’s picking favorites not based on what benefits the American people, but on what benefits him and his children.

Trump’s profiteering in office was once unimaginable in a democracy, particularly by a sitting American president. The Trump family’s earnings move him into an echelon of enrichment more associated with strongmen in Russia and Turkey. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/02/w...

NEW: Most Supreme Court Rulings Are Secretive Votes With Little Justification ProPublica conducted a new analysis that shows the court is deciding more consequential rulings than ever before in largely unsigned orders with little to no explanation.

Justice Thomas’ & Justice Alito’s characterization of English common law as feudal as it was evolving from the seventeenth and into the eighteenth century is absurd and glosses over huge swaths of history. This is the same thing Wurman did. Its scattershot work, in addition to being patently wrong.

Jackson.

5-4! Holy fucking shit, they got 4?

Justice Jackson’s concurrence is dead on: “The distortion of historical facts—retellings that reimagine and repurpose past events to lend credence to misbegotten aims— may be an even greater threat."

two things. first, always an irony that alito recapitulates the exact same arguments made against his immigrant forbearers. second, if this is all the 14th amendment did it would not have repudiated dred scott

A year a half a ago, this professor made a plainly false statement that “an entire literature” existed— it didn’t—and then got multiple justices to buy into the historical fiction he backfilled, covering 800 years in a few weeks. A bastardized history, not in the search for truth, but for power.

On Birthright Citizenship: “The Reconstruction Amendments were an anticaste, antisubordination reset for the Nation, not a mere spot treatment for the dark stain of slavery.” -Justice Ketanji Brown 💅💕

This is a decision that should be 9-0. Millions of American citizens cannot spend the next decades of their lives in constant suspense, wondering if an unlucky change in the judiciary will result in the revocation of their previously-unquestioned constitutional right to exist in this country.

The correct statement for Dems to give is this: It is a relief that the Court reaffirmed the foundational principle that anyone born in America is unquestionably American. But the close split on this simple constitutional question reveals a body corrupted beyond repair by authoritarian bullying.

lol. lmao

That's right.

really cannot be emphasized enough that the drafters of the birthright clause very much considered cases analogous to undocumented immigrants and *included them too*

Everyone should be extremely concerned that birthright citizenship was 5-4 and not unanimous.

Those fools damn near wrecked the 14th Amendment and a lot of pseudo scholarship in the legal academy was used to nearly get there. Should be a badge of shame in a just world.

Unfortunately, politicians and sports broadcasters keep convincing gullible citizens that stadium deals are economic drivers for the region. We keep getting scammed. www.currentaffairs.org/news/taxpaye...

I don’t think it’s hype, I think he has it in him to become a 2028 frontrunner. I wish there were some polling on what is numbers are among people who know who he is I think that’s what convinced me Obama could pull it off, back when Hillary was “inevitable” in 2006/7, but the Obama people kept…

This is BANANAS. A 16-point lead on the generic ballot?! In a WALL STREET JOURNAL poll?! In 2018 when Dems netted 40 seats in the House, they led the generic ballot by 14.
