Trump didn’t earn the Kennedy Center’s name — he stole it.

Self-appointed chairman. Stacked board. Congress bypassed. Kennedy Family ignored.

CBS spiked legit journalism, aired the FAKE gala, and called it tradition.

This is state-run culture.

The AG is *supposed* to be the people’s lawyer, not the president’s. This is outrageous.

It also indicates Trump feels that he needs protection from Epstein file disclosures.
Axios has learned the White House has begun managing the DOJ's account on X to respond to posts highlighting mentions of Trump in the Epstein files.

In typical administrations, there is a wall between the White House and what is supposed to be an independent Justice Department.

New from MS NOW:

Kash Patel is being driven around in specially armored BMWs that the FBI bought at his request.

Patel earlier this year pressed the FBI to purchase a new, more modern FBI jet for his use, but the proposal was abandoned over cost estimates. www.ms.now/news/kash-pa...
Kash Patel’s new ride of choice: an armored luxury BMW
FBI director under fire for use of government resources also asked for an upgraded jet

The White House has been caught.

The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.

In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

Muting a Black woman to claim the vote was unanimous is so incredibly on the nose
The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

For those asking about sentencing, the 1505 charge carries a 5-year maximum, but Judge Dugan's guideline sentence will be much lower, because she's a first-time offender & there are mitigating factors. And of course, there will be an appeal before the conviction becomes final.

Our kids were little, and we lived in Malaysia, when current HepB vax approved in 1986. Our doctor in KL told us how great it was for our kids to get this protection so early in life. I got my shot too. Deb was then very sick w HepA, from trip through China. Got her shot later

This ruling is evil
This regressive move will literally kill people. It's making kids' liver cancer great again. And it's a sign of more harm to come.

Yes, the Supreme Court has failed to protect us from Trump. But it’s worse than that: The Supreme Court is imposing its own fascism. It invented presidential immunity. It has gutted the Voting Rights Act, passed by a bipartisan Congress. It’s as bad as Trump, and moving in the same direction.

Agree with this thread. Worth reading in full.

25 years ago John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, and AC Barrett all worked on GWBush's 2000 Florida recount team. What they're doing now is, if anything, more nakedly partisan.

Fire-breathing dissent by Kagan, with Sotomayor and Jackson.
They're not even trying to appear nonpartisan anymore.
#BREAKING: Over dissents from the three democratic appointees, #SCOTUS puts Texas's new House maps back into effect for (and, presumably, through) the 2026 midterms.

The three Democratic appointees, in an opinion by Justice Kagan, dissent.

I'll post the ruling shortly.

Agree: change is that the "institutionalists" have stopped pretending

-Thomas/Alito: They're the equivalent of "Trump +35" safe House district

-Gorsuch (in Garland seat) equiv of "Trump +22"

-But Kav, ACB, and mainly pious 'just call balls and strikes' Roberts wanted to be seen as open to facts
What's changed is that the Court has become more transparent in its corruption. There's not even an argument here beyond the implicit one which is: how do you expect us to hold the House without those seats?
