In a 5-4 decision, the Court’s conservative majority can’t find the spine to tell Trump no about the ballroom. Chief Justice Roberts is joined by the 3 liberal Justices in dissent, calling what Trump is doing “likely unlawful.”

The Executive Order on voting, which has been a major focus this week, is being contested in the context of the 2026 election. But it’s really about 2028 and beyond, and about whether Trump is going to be permitted to take control of our elections. joycevance.substack.com/p/its-really...

joycevance.substack.comIt’s Really About 2028Recap from last night: The Supreme Court said Judge Indira Talwani, in Boston, got it wrong when she enjoined the government from implementing Trump’s executive order on voting.

Our troops could be using UNSAFE or INEFFECTIVE weapons because of Pete Hegseth. That's right. Hegseth gutted the office that tests weapons. @norcross.house.gov and I are pressing Hegseth to reverse these cuts. We shouldn’t unnecessarily risk troops’ lives and our national security.

CapitalOne closed 300 of Trump’s accounts on suspicions of money laundering, so the Trump family just decided to start their own bank. Problem solved!

Dr. Vin Gupta: There is no proven link between the childhood vaccine schedule and the development of autism. There are other much more plausible and proven risks that we just don’t talk about because they are so focused on their hypothesis that’s been debunked.…

the Trump administration is objectively pro-sexual abuse and domestic violence

I couldn’t make this up if I tried.🤬 “An anti-sex-trafficking nonprofit in Utah whose founder resigned after multiple women accused him of trafficking and sexual abuse has won a federal contract to provide legal services to unaccompanied immigrant children in government custody.“

The USS Abraham Lincoln has been at sea for over 200 days. Conditions are so bad that sailors are trying to jump ship. So what is the Secretary of Defense focused on right now? Testosterone tests. Seth Moulton has a message for Pete Hegseth: send the USS Lincoln HOME.

Trump was the honored guest at the White House Correspondents Dinner on July 24. Less then three weeks earlier, he secretly left some of them to face death on an Air Force 1 targeted by Iran. But they’ll invite him again next year: wapo.st/4i1OByht

It’s amazing to me that the continent that gave us two world wars can barely muster much to defend Ukraine against a third rate military. Much less a functional army

Max Rose just laid out the next 90 days in three sentences: Oppose the war in Iran. Expose Trump's failures on affordability. And hold this administration accountable for their horrific corruption. That's the mission. Nothing else.

Bill Cassidy voted to convict Trump. Then Trump turned against him, endorsed his opponent, and helped end his career. Cassidy owes Trump NOTHING. And yet, on his way out the door, he still can’t find the courage to stand up to him. Why? This is what the complete surrender looks like.

If you exclude one specific scene, Mrs. Lincoln actually enjoyed the Ford's Theatre production of "Our American Cousin"

Kevin Hassett on Fox News argues that if you exclude the sectors that lost hundreds of thousands of jobs, "you actually had a number that was about plus 100,000" 🙃

BREAKING: Bill Cassidy says he’s a YES on Todd Blanche, solidifying his legacy as the man who enabled RFK Jr. to wreak havoc on Americans’ health, and now the man who will let Blanche weaponize the DOJ like never before seen in history and cover up for Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes.

Adul El-Sayed was born and raised in Michigan and holds a PhD from Oxford (that's in England, not in Mississippi), where he was a Rhodes Scholar. He's a leading US public health expert. You, Tuberville, are motivated by just one thing: racism. It permeates your innermost self and defines you.

"We are aware of no instance in American history in which a President unilaterally and using privately collected funds demolished substantial portions of the White House that Congress authorized to be built and American taxpayers paid for. Until now."

U.S. Appeals Court for DC Circuit orders a halt to Trump's ballroom construction: "The White House is the People’s House, and under the Constitution’s Property Clause, Congress exercises plenary control over the building and its surrounding land." Opinion: ecf.cadc.uscourts.gov/n/beam/servl...

We blew all our air defense in a stupid war that we lost. Meanwhile Ukraine is fighting its ass off and now empty. History will be harsh to this administration. Send the remaining Patriots to Ukraine now and ramp up production.

The U.S. military faces real shortages: precision-guided munitions, air defense interceptors, drones, and the capabilities modern wars actually require. Instead, this administration is prioritizing a $275+ billion "Trump Class Battleship" that won't be operational for nearly a decade. All for ego
