The U.S. Supreme Court: "ICE can racially profile people it arrests."

Also, the U.S. Supreme Court: "Texas can disenfranchise voters based on race."

Can we all agree that we currently have a white supremacist Supreme Court?

The Supreme Court of the United States is an illegitimate body, and every Democrat should run on negating and replacing it
#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.

It may sound radical, but if one guy has so much wealth and power that he can use the large newspaper he owns to publicly threaten to ruin a service we all rely on, presumably as a bargaining tactic to get lower rates, we probably need to tax that guy until he can't do that anymore.
Exclusive: Amazon has long been USPS’s top customer, providing over $6 billion in annual revenue in 2025.

But Amazon may give up its long-standing partnership with USPS to deliver packages itself, which could spell disaster for the mail agency.

The democratic establishment, people like Joe Biden, won’t even consider SCOTUS reform let alone push for it. So why wouldn’t SCOTUS kick sand in their faces? All Democrats ever do is take it.
The Supreme Court and the GOP in general behave the way they do not because they fear Trump but because they DON'T fear Democrats.

Maybe instead of committing atrocities, we could just make the rich pay their fair share and have universal healthcare and affordable housing instead.

I will not take a single one of them seriously or view them as anything other than collaborators if they do not stop voting for trump nominees. Not. One.
For the second day in a row, Dems help confirm a Trump nominee. This time it is the anti-choice & crypto obsessed Matthew Orso to be a District Judge for Western North Carolina. He is confirmed 57-41. Between 4 to 6 Dems voted yea and I will post who did once the roll call is posted.

UPDATE

House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries tells CNN that the charges against Congressman Henry Cuellar and his wife were “very thin,” and that President Trump’s pardon of the couple was “the right outcome.”

President Trump says he is granting a pardon to Democratic Congressman Henry Cuellar and his wife Imelda.

Federal prosecutors said they accepted around $600,000 from an oil-and-gas company wholly owned and controlled by the government of Azerbaijan and a bank in Mexico.

This is bigger than "AI companies are buying all the RAM."

This is "AI companies are ruining the larger market because they're bribing RAM manufacturers and no regulators anywhere in the entire world are moving to stop them."

Capitalism is incompatible with society.

RAM production is limited to a handful of manufacturers: Micron, SK Hynix, and Samsung. They have a long standing record of setting prices (including illegally, they were prosecuted for it back when we had laws).

The way they do that is limiting the available stock of RAM chips in the market.

just before I left Substack I was hemorrhaging subscribers because when they started "Notes" (their Twitter clone) it would subscribe anyone who followed you to your newsletter. This company does nasty growth hack shit that readers hate but makes writers dependent.
it feels gross that Substack does auto/non-consensual sign-ups. It’s a pretty schlocky growth strategy.

The refusal to consider DC Statehood is largely a reluctance to give DC two Senators, which itself is a tacit admission that the United States Senate is an anti-democratic institution.
Statehood for D.C. is an ethical obligation at this point, required to protect the rights of our residents to govern ourselves against such out-of-state troops being sent to patrol our city.
NEW: Republican-led states, in a new filing at the D.C. Circuit, say D.C. residents are irrelevant, D.C. belongs to everyone else. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The filing is led by the South Carolina and West Virginia attorneys general. Both states sent troops to DC.

Pass legislation requiring that no one earning less than $100k a year be audited or pursued for tax debt while corporatons use arcane loopholes to avoid paying any tax at all.
My bipartisan IRS MATH Act with Senator Bill Cassidy is now law.

Now, if you mess up your taxes, the IRS has to tell you where you made a mistake and how to fix it.

No more spending a fortune on lawyers or hours to find errors.

That means fewer headaches and more money in your pocket.
