I know everyone has moved on from the Abrego Garcia case but it's still important, and Trump has now accidentally opened up major new lines of inquiry by admitting that he could bring him back whenever he wants. Establishing who is advising Trump to defy SCOTUS is critical:
Now that Trump has openly admitted he could bring back Abrego Garcia whenever he wants, his lawyer tells me he will use discovery to determine which officials are advising Trump to defy the Supreme Court.
New piece from me with lots of fresh reporting on this case:

How Trump Accidentally Sabotaged His Own Case Against Abrego Garcia
Trump has now admitted twice that he could bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia home, but says his lawyers are telling him not to. This was a very dumb move—and also a very revealing one.

I think just these cuts alone would be the most significant cuts to insurance coverage in the history of Medicaid. Add in the ACA cuts, the GOP seems intent on letting happen, & we're on the verge of the most massive uninsuring of Americans ever, during a recession, as the richest get more tax cuts.

We are living in one of the few times in human history where you can buy a loaf of bread and if it says it’s made with wheat flour and salt and yeast and water and nothing else, it’s probably made from just those ingredients, and some people want to END this.

I think a lot about how COVID-19 was sold as an "individual responsibility," an approach which got over a million people killed but that the culture still accepted. Following that P.R. success, they're eager to say every illness is your fault.
RFK Jr blames diet, lifestyle & vaccines for chronic illness.
Dr Oz says it’s a “patriotic duty” to lead a healthy life & be fit enough to serve in the military.
Neither of them are pushing for Universal Healthcare, basic income, an end to food deserts & inequality, clean water etc.
It’s eugenics

i feel like trumpcoin, and the fact that we never talk about it, is pretty emblematic of the way the press refuses to grapple with trump.
it exists in order to pay him bribes. it expressly gives you political access. it does not pretend to have a licit motive. it was a one-day scandal.
