I can't help noticing the Supreme Court conservatives expressing the first doubt of a Trump assertion in oral arguments the day after the election day where every Republican running lost by 20 points. But they would never be swayed by such worldly things in their consideration of The Law, right?

I hate Prop 50 and I'm tremendously pleased and relieved it appears to have passed.

Glad this is still getting attention because it was a genuinely insane move in a wide variety of ways, including that had these guys gotten their way it may have actually breached levees and led to floods across California farmland.
NEW: Fresh details on the chaos leading up to the WH ordering the US Army Corps to release billions of gallons of water from 2 CA dams in Jan. Included DOGE reps demanding to “turn on the pumps” themselves at a federal water plant, while getting their picture taken. www.cnn.com/2025/03/07/c...

President Trump falsely claimed the LA fires were a result of the state’s water policies. DOGE agents flew to California to turn pumps on themselves.

For all the TRUMP = STRONG propaganda this is *exactly* what his “leadership” was like in Covid. Constant zigging and zagging, self-contradictory, incapable of commitment, wanting to have it both ways. It was a disaster!
This is what weak, flailing leadership looks like. His inability to make meaningful change in areas like this explains the desperate, authoritarian bluster of his largely illegal Executive Orders. This is the sort of leader who opposing politicians should definitely NOT cater to.
"The decision is a significant reversal by Trump, who on Tuesday had announced the largest tariff increase in a century only to back down 48 hours later as stocks were hammered and Republicans expressed concern about the economic consequences." Story: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

It’s early, but I like the full-on pomp-and-circumstance we’re thus far seeing for the presentation of the below-the-line "tech" categories at this year's Oscar show.

Gene Hackman dying seems a good time to tell you that Sam Raimi made a western called The Quick and the Dead, absolutely every cool actor is in it, Hackman destroys in every scene as the Big Bad, and for weird reasons 1995 America decided it was bad and erased it from memory

No matter how much a member may like shuttering a specific agency or "pausing" to "review" it's work, it blatantly violates congressional authority and weakens their control of future presidents.

It is the worst kind of abdication of power and precedent imaginable.

Jan 6 was investigated and largely prosecuted as domestic terrorism. The pardons should be reported and spoken of accordingly. An endorsement of terrorism. Trump sprung his terrorist network - including, by extension, himself.
