Quick note - how many hours are in a week? What did minimum wage get you in each decade? In 2025, it gets you nothing but exhaustion. There isn’t a single place in the US where a full-time minimum-wage worker can afford even a modest 2-bedroom rental.
That’s the reality.

Who thinks that we need to see more fight and more passion from Democratic leadership?
Do you think we're already in a Constitutional crisis?
I do.

By shipping men to a Salvadoran prison without due process, the Trump administration has begun defying court orders in earnest.

I joined Ali Velshi last night on MSNBC’s The Eleventh Hour to discuss the Chief Justice’s rebuke of the President. I explained that America is in a constitutional crisis when, rather than faithfully executing the laws, the President of the United States is defying the laws.

Judge Luttig recognizes, appropriately, that we are *already* in a Constitutional crisis.

An economic crisis on top of a constitutional crisis on top of political crisis on top of a crisis in foreign policy. Grizz can’t cope without extra treats.

we're at the Zeno's Paradox stage of constitutional crisis
A very noticeable shift of tone. For the first time, Boasberg explicitly quotes the government's own boasting about the flight details. The whole order reads like "I know you're full of shit and I'm deciding what I want to do about it, and you won't get off easy even if you invoke state secrets".
He JUST did. 24 more hours. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Okay, I'm on the public line and going to do another live-skeeting of the hearing for those who can't join (it seems the public line is now full).
Hearing is set to start in moments.

constitutional crisis cubed
Just so we’re all clear, the Supreme Court *expressly ruled* that the president cannot fire FTC commissioners without cause in 1935’s Humphrey’s Executor. Trump’s action here is brazenly illegal under any interpretation of the law as it stands. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...
Exclusive: Trump fires both Democratic commissioners at FTC, sources say
President Donald Trump fired the two Democratic commissioners at the U.S. Federal Trade Commission on Tuesday, two sources familiar with the situation said, in another major test of the independence of regulatory agencies.
