JUST IN: A federal judge has ruled against President Trump's use of the National Guard in Los Angeles, siding with the state of California's argument that the president erred in how the guard was being activated.
Judge issues a temporary ruling against Trump using the National Guard in L.A.
The White House could appeal the injunction issued by the judge but the decision in a federal court is a setback for President Trump.

Abrego Garcia, criminal or saint, was denied his due process rights by the gov’t. In this country, people are entitled to those rights, whether criminals or not, whether citizens or not. joycevance.substack.com/p/does-it-ma...
Does It Matter If He's a Criminal?

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

worshipping katy perry as an "astronaut" but never acknowledging the women in the actual astronaut fleet is so crazy. stan culture has ruined this entire universe.

Penske strong-arming his drivers into this visit is not all that different than Childress brow-beating Reddick into taking down the tweet. disappointing? sure, but that's unfortunately how shit works. nothing against the drivers here

when Jimmy Carter wasn't eradicating diseases in Africa, he was building houses for the homeless. perhaps the greatest Christian role model of the past century. which is of course why evangelicals hate him and love Trump

did not realize the Mets offer to Soto was only $5M more than the Yankees. love Soto, but that's just a bad decision. it's largely meaningless. but more importantly, he makes that up and then some in pinstripes

There's no duty to stay on Twitter:

1) It's an app for partisans. If you stay, you're not reaching the general public

3) It's an app, not a country. It's not worth "fighting for." Who fought for MySpace?

2) By staying, you're giving a troubled man an audience he doesn't deserve.

Also . . .

When many of us argued the rule of law was on the ballot in 2024, we weren’t just worried about the Trump prosecutions. There was also a danger that Trump would try to transform the DOJ into an instrument of vengeance. Patel would be only too eager to make that happen.
I did a deep dive into Kash Patel back when I was at MSNBC, in case you’re interested. He’s a deeply strange and alarming and sycophantic figure (do you all know about the children’s book?)

I am such a believer in this. Down-ballot is the way.

It’s also how we build a sustainable future of good leaders and infrastructure to elect and support them, as well as the movements they represent.

We don’t just need strong candidates. We need strong organizers, managers, CoS, grassroots, etc.
I’ve been organizing in rural areas since the first Trump administration. Rural Dems can make the difference in races at the top of the ticket.

Republicans have all of the electorate they’re ever going to have. Organize to turn out 5% to 10% more Dems in rural spaces. Watch what happens…

I sometimes think about how amazing it must have felt, being Bill Watterson, and saying no to every request and proposal to expand the Calvin & Hobbes IP to tv, movies, merch, you-name-it. To be in that position, in need of nothing more, and to just say no thanks.
