What is this game? Where people SWORN to serve the American people seek to undermine ANY hint that they might ever consider doing something in the interests of ordinary people? How can that possibly be anything other than an effective retirement from campaign politics?

The refusal to provide needed medical care was an act of physical violence & a clear violation of the 5th & 8th Amendments. Every action by every person that was part of this abuse was a crime against the Constitution & against all of the American people.

Serious question: If the tax remains law, but Trump is gutting enforcement to give tacit permission to corporations to violate the law & hold money owed to the American people, aren’t they involved in a criminal conspiracy?

That majority has repeatedly acted to grant Trump powers that do not exist in law, including “immunity” from rule of law for some official acts. This stay on SNAP benefits suggests they might not do the same to avoid physically harming millions of innocent people.

The most likely reason for Justice Jackson’s administrative stay is that a majority of the Court would have issued one without requiring urgency in resolving the crisis situation. A majority would be happy to see people go hungry to aid Trump, apparently. www.stevevladeck.com/p/190-snap-wtf
190. SNAP WTF?
A very quick explainer on why Justice Jackson issued an "administrative stay" in the SNAP case late on Friday night, and on what's likely to happen next

Meanwhile, Trump is selectively giving hundreds of billions of dollars to the wealthiest corporations, while starving American families to do it. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/08/b...

Put another way, if the median pay at Tesla were 100 times more than it is—so, 5.7 million per year—it would still take more than 175,000 years to earn as much as Musk is demanding for himself & himself alone.

It would take 17,543,859 years (more than 17.5 MILLION years) to earn $1 trillion, earning what Tesla pays its median employee. That is 8,771 times as long as the time between Jesus and today... or 3,793 times as long as the time between the building of the Great Pyramid of Giza and today.
