Great article that’s worth your time.
"The problem with the Court’s performance, rather, is the justices’ total lack of urgency about any of it, and their default position...that the administration should be unmolested by the judiciary in tearing down the federal government in the meantime," writes @benjaminwittes.lawfaremedia.org.

The New York Jets are on the list? The 0-7, haven’t won a Super Bowl since 1969, no winning seasons since 2010, Woody Johnson’s teenage boys running the franchise, York Jets are helping to finance the demolition of the East Wing of the White House? Talk about bad Karma!
The Ballroom is doomed!

Everyone should retweet this and get it out there so that the loyal opposition shows it colors next month. If you believe in democracy and believe it’s threatened, you need to show up.
A month from today, we will gather for the largest peaceful protest in American history. The only way to protect our freedom of speech is to exercise our freedom of speech. Join your local event to make it clear there are still NO KINGS in the USA: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

Please read the the attached article by Stephen Miller’s uncle. It tells a wonderful story of the Miller family’s assimilation into America, and why that would not have been possible if someone like Stephen Miller was in charge of immigration policy back then.
"I have watched with dismay and increasing horror as my nephew, an educated man who is well aware of his heritage, has become the architect of immigration policies that repudiate the very foundation of our family’s life in this country."

Just an honest labor statistician collecting the data, crunching the numbers, and reporting them fairly, and definitely not an extremist ideologue with an axe to grind, unshackled from respect for the law or political norms.

As a resident of NJ, I’m so proud that Andy Kim is one of our two great Senators.
I’m grateful to first responders like Captain Bob Penn who put their lives on the line during 9/11.
When Bob approached me at a town hall and told me that the Trump Admin cut critical support for first responders like him, we jumped into action.
Our team will always put New Jerseyans first.
