NYC friends: this poor dog was almost on his freedom ride out of the pound when his foster didn't show up on him. He's now in danger of being put down. Do you have space in your home and heart to adopt him? ❤️

Also, lots of animals at this NYC shelter who need a home.

I never thought I'd agree with Piers Morgan, but 'wow' indeed! Thank you @profgalloway.com .

It bears repeating and repeating ad nauseum: If you withheld support from Biden/Harris as a means of advocating for Palestinian nationhood and the aspirations of the Palestinian people and you did not see this moment coming: You are a performative, sloganeering and politically incompetent rube.
here's audio of Trump saying he wants to "clear out" Gaza and move Palestinians elsewhere

2/ As discussed in that clip, this essay by Harold Koh is hands down one of the most important pieces published on the issues of the day:

No, the President Cannot Issue Bills of Attainder

(Note also the bipartisan amicus brief by 27 former senior US officials cited in it.)

#AmericanHistory
No, the President Cannot Issue Bills of Attainder
Trump orders functioning as bills of attainder are prohibited by the Constitution and repugnant to its separation of powers.

Donald Trump has committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era. Almost everything he said—on history, economics and the technicalities of trade—was utterly deluded econ.st/3YbbFjq

A federal judge has paused the Trump admin's plans to end temporary legal protections for hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans — a week before they were set to expire.

Judge Chen: "The Court finds that [Noem's] action threatens to: inflict irreparable harm on hundreds of thousands of persons."

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
