When do you think the White House will announce that they've had a beautiful call with Xi and the China tariffs are going to be lowered or paused?

Alina Habba has launched a criminal probe into New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy over "ICE obstruction."

Immigration control is the responsibility of the federal government.

States can’t be compelled to assist ICE under the 10th Amendment.

It's amazing this failed lawyer passed the bar exam.

‘Fawning’ is a response where a person gives a servile display of exaggerated flattery in order to gain favor or advantage.

AKA: ass-kisser, bootlicker, toady, suck-up brown-noser, etc.

Last weekend in Chicago, 1500 historians gathered for the Organization of American Historians' conference where leading scholars discussed little things like, oh, the fate of democracy.

I guess if we add some horny Nazis next year maybe CNN will come out and listen to what we have to say?
It would appear CNN was also at the eugenics conference? Why are all these mainstream news orgs at a 200-person event where all the speakers are eugenicists and racists? www.cnn.com/2025/04/11/u...

If you ever meet someone spouting this nonsense, just ask what steps they’re taking to prepare their kids for mining careers.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Another question, other than the obvious wage slavery of it all, is... why? Why do we need them mining and refining materials? They'll say it's so they can make the "AI revolution" go faster, but to what end? Why is any of this happening? None of this needs to or should happen.
This “genius” genuinely believes that healthcare budget analysts can simply be reassigned to making toasters.

I called my senators today and told them I want Cory Booker to be the senate minority leader.

We can’t hold hearings. We don’t have subpoena power. We can’t pass budgets. But we CAN filibuster, and we CAN change party leadership.

The last day on which a majority of the Supreme Court’s justices had been appointed by Democratic presidents was May 14, 1969.

One of the things we do in the legal academy is support our claims with facts.

Things Democratic Senators could do that would be useful:

- Withdraw unanimous consent from all Senate business until constitutional rule was restored

- Refuse to vote for any legislation until constitutional rule was restored

- Boycott as a caucus until constitutional rule was restored
