Dear Canada-
Please accept our deepest apologies from all decent Americans embarrassed by the obnoxious trolling from our man-baby-in-chief who is lacking in both intelligence & any impulse-control whatsoever.

❤️ from your neighbors below, 🇺🇸

At one key moment in the Civil Rights era, the Justices of the Supreme Court spoke with one voice. Now, they should do it again. My @nytimes.com column.

Opinion | A U.S. Supreme Court Opinion That Could Avert a Constitutional Crisis
The federal judiciary is being forced to confront a fundamental question: what to do when its orders are defied.

Pete Hegseth just ordered the installation of a makeup studio at the Pentagon for him to prepare for his television appearances, which will cost thousands of taxpayer dollars to build.

So basically our core biomedical agenda has gone from cancer and heart disease research with major investments in alzheimers/dementia research to jacking up the sperm count of teenage males and a new wild goose for the 'hidden causes' of Autism Spectrum Disorder.

NEW: Read the resignation letter of three federal prosecutors who'd worked on the Eric Adams case: "Now, the Department has decided that obedience supersedes all else, requiring us to abdicate our legal and ethical obligations in favor of directions from Washington." static01.nyt.com/newsgraphics...
April 22, 2025 BY EMAIL Todd Blanche Deputy Attorney General United States Department of Justice Dear Deputy Attorney General Blanche, The Department placed each of us on administrative leave ostensibly to review our, and the Southern District of New York U.S. Attorney's Office's, handling of the Adams case. It is now clear that one of the preconditions you have placed on our returning to the Office is that we must express regret and admit some wrongdoing by the Office in connection with the refusal to move to dismiss the case. We will not confess wrongdoing when there was none. We have served under Presidents of both parties, advancing their priorities while pursuing justice without fear or favor. The role of a career prosecutor is not to set policy. But a prosecutor must abide by the oath to uphold the Constitution and laws of the United States and the rules of professional ethics set by the bar and the courts. The Department has long understood that these duties can and should coexist with the need to follow Department policies and orders. This is to the benefit of all: the courts, defendants, and the public, who can have confidence in the good faith and judgment of line prosecutors; the Department, which retains credibility while still receiving zealous advocacy from its lawyers; and the prosecutors themselves, who can stand in court confident that they are ethically carrying out their duties. Now, the Department has decided that obedience supersedes all else, requiring us to abdicate our legal and ethical obligations in favor of directions from Washington. That is wrong. Serving in the Southern District of New York has been an honor. There is no greater privilege than to work for an institution whose mandate is to do the right thing, the right way, for the right reasons. We will not abandon this principle to keep our jobs. We resign. Sincerely, Celia V. Cohen Andrew Rohrbach Derek Wikstrom Assistant United States Attorneys

I spent the day at the ICE Detention centers where Rümeysa Öztürk and Mahmoud Khalil are being unjustly detained. They've been taken thousands of miles away from home and denied due process.

I’m here to call for their immediate release and make it known that they haven’t been forgotten.
From left to right, Congressman Jim McGovern, Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley, and Senator Ed Markey stand outside an ICE detention center in Louisiana.

If only there were a lesson in there for him about due process…
A post by Senator Peter Welch (@SenPeterWelch ) with a verified blue checkmark says: "That pesky Constitution! President Trump complains about losing in court, even with his nominated judges, because he violates due process, a right we all have." It quotes Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump ) saying: "I’m doing what I was elected to do, remove criminals, but the Courts, even the U.S. Supreme Court, block me. They’re intimidated by the Radical Left. Justice Alito wants to dissolve the pause on deportations. He’s right! We can’t give everyone a trial—it’d take 200 years."

“Kimmel rolled a super cut of Hegseth using the word ‘leakers’ repeatedly, ending with him saying, ‘I don’t have time for leakers.’

“‘You don’t have time for leakers?’ Kimmel repeated in disbelief. ‘You are the leaker!’”

There will come a day when folks realize that the 2016 election was stolen, as was the 2024 election.

That sounds crazy to say now, conspiracy stuff… but just wait. Hell, bookmark this.

Different methods were used for each, but it will come out.

Then we are gonna have ourselves a real mess.

“Since Putin is clearly set on continuing the war while dividing the West…threats (by America) to walk away only incentivise him to carry on. It is a counter-productive approach in defiance of all recent experience of bringing peace talks to a successful conclusion.” A must-read: virg.in/4jCtvUE
If Trump passes on Ukraine, it’ll be up to us
UK and Europe will have to supply arms to Kyiv and strengthen our own defences, which will require a radical rethink

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
