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

We are highly critical of @RepTimBurchett but he & @repjayapal are right — Congress should be BANNED from trading stocks, as @unusualwhales calls out.

Trump's economy is being held up by a massive AI bubble.
A recent study found that of 300 companies that owned generative AI tools, 95% reported zero return on their investments.
We will not entertain a bailout of these companies should this bubble pop.

The Department of Education is parceling off its main offices and giving their responsibilities to other federal agencies.
Much of the funding for K-12 and colleges is being handed over to—wait for it—the Department of LABOR.
Because what else is education good for apart from producing workers?😞

A man charged with assaulting an officer during Trump's show-of-force in D.C. has asked a judge to throw out the case because prosecutors waited too long to bring him to trial, part of "a pattern of gross neglect of the government’s legal and constitutional obligations."

lmao. reading the opinion on the Texas gerrymander, the court, reasonably, ruled that (a) the Trump admin had sent Texas a letter demanding that it dismantle districts based entirely on their racial makeup; (b) that Texas acknowledged this as their motivation when they did this; (c) this is racist.

I very strongly stand by my position that any politician with a felony should not be allowed to run, nor hold, office. If they are convicted while they are in office, it should immediately disqualify them from holding current AND future office, AND they should be ousted immediately.

I just watched the whole video, and not a single reporter stood up for her. Everyone just pivoted to asking questions on other topics.
This is shameful.

When asked if there was anything "incriminating" in Epstein's emails, Trump pointed a finger in a female reporter's face and snapped. 'Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.'
