The Roberts court created a roadmap by which states could enact partisan and racial gerrymanders, as long as they didn't say the race part out loud. Then Texas went and said the race part out loud.

Will the GOP appointees let Texas get away with it anyway?

The Texas gerrymandering case is a test of the Supreme Court's integrity
Do the justices have any rules they won't let Republicans break?

The President of the United States is calling for sitting Members of Congress to be killed.

Every death threat against them and their families will be on his hands.

Regardless of your party, every American should loudly condemn this.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

The message couldn't be clearer: the military - the country - is for white non-Jews only. Complete de-maga-fication can't happen too soon.
“The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika — an emblem of fascism and white supremacy inextricably linked to the murder of millions of Jews and the deaths of more than 400,000 U.S. troops who died fighting in World War II — as a hate symbol”

U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses as hate symbols
The military service, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, has drafted a new policy that classifies such items “potentially divisive.”

Hi, scientist here:

This statement from the Trumpers at CDC is not how scientific truth works.

This is a Merchants of Doubt rhetorical trick. No study can prove a negative. Scientific evidence shows vaccines do not cause autism. 🧪
This is completely disgusting. Today, the CDC updated their vaccine safety page. It now says:

“The claim "vaccines do not cause autism" is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism”.

Weird that Trump and Vance didn’t do any “don’t embarrass our guest” when Zelenskyy was attacked by a reporter for not wearing a suit to the Oval. And yet ask MBS about killing an American….
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

Remember the recent middle-of-the-night apartment building raid where children were dragged outside naked & zip-tied in the street while black & Latino residents were _sorted by race_ and piled into separate vans while their apartments were ransacked & robbed? That raid? So it resulted in 0 arrests.

The press contact for FACE THE NATION is amanda.leonard@paramount.com if anyone wants to explain to them why people might care about a massive pedophile sex trafficking ring that apparently implicates the president and several other powerful men.
Margaret Brennan to Tom Suozzi: "Can you explain the focus this past week in the House by Democrats on the Jeffrey Epstein files? Is this a tactic to distract from the failure to extract healthcare changes?"

The Republican Party should be disbanded. Americans are not imbecilic morons. We have fought, bled and died for our country. Using tax payer dollars and official USG channels to insult us is pathetic and shows a contempt for the public that has no place in a nation built by those sacrifices.

This cruelty must stop.

There’s no doubt countless more stories like these that will never be told

People being harmed who will never have justice.

We know 1200 people went missing from the Everglades facility and 3000 are missing from the Chicago raids.

Make noise for all of them.

ICE agents in Chicago violently detain a non verbal autistic man for being “non compliant”

He couldn’t “comply” because of his disability…they don’t care

This is not the first time they’ve gone after a disabled person

They target the most vulnerable because it’s an easy way to meet their quota

Raping an incapacitated person is now a resume booster for the Republican Party.
Oh look, the party that protects sexual predators is also hiring them.

The goddamn nerve of Jeff Bezos' newspaper to talk shit about raising the minimum wage at a moment when workers at Jeff Bezos' online superstore -- who are paid so little half of them in one study were on SNAP benefits -- are going hungry.

The fucking arrogance.
Wow, sounds like Jeff Bezos is mad

Dick Cheney was a mass murderer and a war criminal, who should have been tried in the Hague and put away for life.

That HE said there has never been "a greater threat to our republic [the US] than Donald Trump" speaks volumes about how dire the situation is.

No FBI agent or federal prosecutor will now ever dare to investigate a Republican, a MAGA figure, or anyone with any connection to Trump, his family, or his businesses. To even look in the direction of such a possible target would be career suicide.
