I’m still working on my profile - there’s a lot to unpack or repack, depending on point of view.
Yanno, on The Remnant Jul 3, May I please retort: SALT deductions make some fiscal sense because those residents tend to not benefit directly from federal programs as much; they pay for local services via SALT - which used to be the GOP preference.

The Senate passed the MAGA budget. Now it’s up to the House—and we’ve got a list of 27 vulnerable reps and their top donors. It’s time to apply pressure. Start calling. Start tagging. Let’s do this! Link to the spreadsheet included below:

Is it me, or is SCOTUS downright hostile towards the APA? I mean, how can someone’s legal status (Venezuela) change in a day without having gone thru analysis, evidence specifically showing how & why DHS or State made their decisions re: deportation but not travel advisories? I am a civil servant.

Sending love and strength to President Biden who’s done incredibly hard things from raising a family after his first wife died to parenting kids through cancer & addiction. When you look at his life being president might have been the easiest. If anybody can beat this, it will be Joe from Scranton.
Michelle and I are thinking of the entire Biden family. Nobody has done more to find breakthrough treatments for cancer in all its forms than Joe, and I am certain he will fight this challenge with his trademark resolve and grace. We pray for a fast and full recovery.

@theremnant.bsky.social Jonah, your thoughts on staying in our lane certainly keeps our points of view narrow, which your knee jerk dismissal of intentional diversity & inclusion, increasing equity as a core value in business & govt is likewise narrow minded serving to perpetuate “traditional” harms

What’s up with these judges who insist on changing the subject back to Chevron?

Are the senior judges able to remain awake the whole time & digest the current cases’ args in court?

Are they jazzed or pissed to become super-agency judges in different ratios than the less experienced judges?

www.nytimes.com/2025/04/05/u... everyone who isn’t doing as he and his side are is actually harmed but none of us have standing to sue, due to Article 3 assisting with flipping the law “shield & sword” analogy from protection for the people from the State. Sucks.

This hearing is happening now. Judge Boasberg starts by apologizing for his attire -- says he learned of the case after he'd left for the weekend. He didn't bring his judicial robes with him.
The judge has now also set a hearing for 5p today to consider certifying a class to protect all who would be subject to the administration's effort.

Trump’s DOJ lawyers have no shame.
Public line back on.

Judge to DOJ: Can you confirm that people…well, I guess you can’t on the public line bc you couldn’t even privately make representations about flights.
