I suspect we are celebrating far too soon. They will try again and again until the court does hear it, and the conservatives on the court playing judge would like nothing better than to overturn it with no explanation but as much cruelty as they can muster.

Now then. That is a fair observation.
i just realized something...
Excalibur was already forged before king arthur drew it. likely then excalibur was forged for a previous welsh warrior centuries before him... meaning Excalibur isnt a medieval longsword... it's not even a roman gladius
but a 3rd century Celtic sword like this

Criminals who are completely unsuited for any employment, much less employment that gives them access to firearms. Hopefully we can put some folks in office who will commit to tracking these terrorists down, figuring out how many took part in the j6 assault, and holding everyone accountable.

Nothing makes one want to go to the mall like a reminder that we live in a fascist state with a mad king and none of our elected reps, who are clearly incompetent and oblivious, can be bothered to do much of anything. The thought of doing something seems insulting to them.

INGRAHAM: “Why are people saying they’re anxious about the economy?”
TRUMP: “The polls are fake 🤥. The economy is the strongest ever 🤥. We have $20 Trillion coming in 🤥 . Largely because of the tariffs 🤥.”
Every sentence is a lie.

Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.
A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates.
When will party leadership learn this lesson?

You can’t even get term life insurance policies than span 50 years and there’s a really good reason for that.
People with these mortgages will live and die in debt and that debt will outlive them and create financial burdens for their loved ones. What a terrible discouraging mess that would make.
