KBJ, in dissent, calls today's ruling "profoundly dangerous" and an "existential threat to the rule of law." She expresses her "deep disillusionment" with the court and suggests that the conservative supermajority continues to crown Trump a king above law. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Every article I read: “It’s hard to understand exactly what Trump is thinking as he makes this decision”

Me: “He’s 👏 not 👏 thinking 👏”

These people will stop at nothing to try to rationalize this crazy man. Also his voters. Lots of rationalizing there too.

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.

No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

"Let's not take the soul-sucking path of sacrificing the most persecuted for that which we deem to be most popular. I know that there are transgender children right now looking out at this world and wondering if anyone is going to stand up for them and for their simple right to exist. Well, I am."

Dear manager,

This week I:
1. Never gave you up
2. Never let you down
3. Never ran around and deserted you
4. Never made you cry
5. Never said goodbye

Never told a lie and hurt you,
Sara

So now that Canada beat the US, can they take over? Or at least take like half? I’d like some healthcare and democracy.

Gift link.

The actual story of the shackled people being deported without even being told where they were being taken — maybe to countries where they’d face torture or death — while their terrified children cried.😢

The White House posted that pic with “ASMR” tag.

This order will kill kids, there's no other way to say it. It's the government forcibly taking control of the bodies of thousands of children.
Trump issues a sweeping executive order purporting to (a) defund medical institutions that provide gender-affirming care to patients under 19 and (b) revoke coverage for such care under federal insurance plans. This is illegal and will be challenged. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

Every Democrat who doesn't have a press conference in front of a bridge or road project that just got "paused" by tomorrow morning is derelict in their duty.
