I think a key part of this scheme is robbing as much money from blue states as possible in part to make Democrats who are electeds in these states less popular by creating budget crises there.
Fraud was the excuse: this is the real goal, revealed - reduce safety net funding, but only in blue states.
“Minnesota, New York, California, Illinois and Colorado will be cut off from around $7 billion in funding for the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program, which provides cash assistance to households with children, according to two people familiar with the matter.”
Monstrously cruel.

Reading Robers' report, it is clear that he is not really asking for judicial independence. Instead, he wants a free hand to legislate from the bench whatever far-right, anti-democratic policies the Republicans are unable to push through Congress.
Under Roberts, SCOTUS is a branch of the RNC.

I understand the need for people to look forward to the elections in November in order to change the regime. Please fight for everyone’s right to vote before November. Elections are not assured when Fascists are in charge.

Strange takes on Mayor Zamdani swearing his oath on the Qu’ran. It has nothing to do with church & state. The point of the oath is for the person swearing in to do so upon some text that is sacred TO THEM. Some Presidents swore in w/o any book. John Quincy Adams was sworn on a law book. His choice.

I was wondering what Mamdani's first executive order would be, and I'm not disappointed by this.
He has wiped off the books EVERY Eric Adams executive order issued on or after September 26, 2024, the day Adams was indicted on federal bribery charges.
