Immigration and refugee lawyer in the states, librarian in Canada, now a retired dual citizen, moved by justice, music and wilderness, trying to find hope in an ailing and dystopian world.
Nahhh, Jeffries has been just as ineffectual as Schumer. He's just aware he'll be primaried in a few months, so he has to look like he has a spine although he has none. Schumer's not up for re-election until 2028 and may retire anyway. And no senator's making any noise about replacing him as leader.

Bears repeating. Follow the money. The yes votes received airline PAC money. Airline stocks were taking a big hit because of the shutdown related reductions. I saw this coming.

Not in these cases. They're real people i have interacted with for years.

I just don't follow fascists on any platform. I'm sure Jackson is fine being vilified by Nazis (and i very much hope she has good personal security). What's sad are the numbers of liberals-to-leftists who see her stay order as a pro-Trump move, not understanding that she did this for all of us.

You are a disgrace, Chuckles. Fuck off and go live with your imaginary Baileys.

They kicked the tenants out about a year before they did any work on the site.

Yes, it's been reported upon and he shouldn't have claimed otherwise. But i'm glad it's getting attention again.

It's Jackson. She's on our side. It's strategic. It's the shortest possible delay, to give time for the Appeals Court to make their decision permanent. The only alternative would have been to send it to all of SCOTUS, who probably would have stayed the decision far longer.

This is what happens when Democratic senators vote to confirm any of Trump's appointments. You brought this on all of us, Adam. Along with facilitating genocide in Gaza. Fuck off and retire.
