The Supreme Court in a 5–4 vote granted the Trump administration’s request to vacate a lower-court ruling preventing it from deporting people using an 18th century wartime law. However, it stipulated that those subject to law are entitled to notice and an opportunity to challenge their removal.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.

Pretty sure Trump is not God, and taxpayers are taking care of veterans who served the country. I'm taking a guess that Rep. Gill did not serve. Even if he did, the government of the United States is not a business. It serves us. We, the People.
Gill on veterans getting fired by Trump: "Nobody in the United States has a right by God to have a job at taxpayer expense at the federal government."

Don't use DEI. Instead, use diversity, equity, and inclusion. Then, challenge people about who's against each of those. "DEI" is another buzzword that the GOP can use to scare people.

Pretty sure at this point that it's the series finale. Good long run, but god, the last few seasons have sucked.
Good morning Bluesky. Why does it feel like we're stuck in a non-stop Monday Loop?
Lifted this graphic from a Robert Reich Substack post. I think it's fitting.

While it comes as no surprise that Trump wants to stifle the voices of young and educated people, we should all be alarmed. His claim that he protects the first amendment is totally Orwellian. Diminishing oppositional voices is anti-democratic.
