you won't often see a judge come closer to calling a DOJ attorney a Nazi than Judge Coughenour does here:
"There are other times in world history where we look back and people of goodwill can say where were the judges, where were the lawyers?"

BREAKING, via The Seattle Times: Trump's executive order to restrict birthright citizenship is blocked for at least the next two weeks by a Reagan appointee in Seattle who eviscerated the Trump lawyers present defending the order. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Wow. Now we can understand why so many Americans are obsessed with trans issues and panicking about being replaced. They think there are 21x more trans people, 27x more muslims, 15x more jews, 5x more asians, 3x more black people, and 2x more immigrants than there actually are.

... and the President who named them all was found civilly liable for sexual assault. So much for progress in ending gender-based violence against women.
To review:
ATTORNEY GENERAL: Allegedly paid for sex with multiple women and a 17-year-old girl
SECRETARY OF DEFENSE: Allegedly raped a woman at a conference in 2017
SECRETARY OF HHS: Allegedly sexually assaulted his kids’ baby sitter

I have to be honest... if it is true, as Robert Kennedy Jr alleges, that the FDA has been "aggressively suppressing sunshine", it should stop doing so immediately. The nerve.

Ever the optimist, I hoped maybe he wouldn't care about all of his most nefarious election promises. I hoped winning would be enough. After all-- he doesn't have to aim for re-election and he cares nothing about the future of the Republican Party. I see now how misplaced my hopes are.
As fucked as you might have thought American democracy was on election night, watching Trump slowly role out his cabinet picks makes you realize just how truly fucked that country really is... like so massively fucked. So many people are going to suffer and die under a regime of rabid lunatics.
