EU officials are weighing the 'Nuclear Option' of dumping U.S. Treasuries if Trump cuts a Ukraine deal and betrays the Allies. This would trigger an economic collapse in the US, millions would lose everything overnight and Saudi Arabia, UAE, and China would buyout the country.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia case mystery:

After issuing a sealed order last week, a federal judge cancelled a hearing this week on Abrego's vindictive prosecution motion.

Trump's DOJ moved to partially reconsider the ruling, and the judge scheduled a sealed, ex-parte hearing tomorrow.

A federal judge ORDERS the disclosure of Ghislaine Maxwell grand jury materials.

But Judge Engelmayer swipes repeatedly at Trump's DOJ for paying "lip service" to then sidelining victims — and misleading the public about what the records contain. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Israel has officially come out in support of Russia. Netanyahu brags about being in daily communication and coordination with Putin. Israel is also invested in attacking the EU due to Europe still upholding international law and the ICC.

The Supreme Court is working hard to turn this country into a despot's dreamscape—while making it nigh impossible for good people to make lasting change for the better.

Those of us who begged folks (and national media) to put SCOTUS before everything else in 2016 are in an endless Cassandrian hell.

Great financial crisis? You mean when the housing market collapsed, banks went under, our GDP sank, the working class lost trillions in net worth and unemployment soared?

Seems like a repeat of the last time we tried to bully the world with isolationist tariffs.

Not good.

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

Funny how that works.

Tr*mp started his career in the public eye by pretending to fire people from fake jobs. Now he’s worked his way up to being in charge of an administration that has murdered* at least 86 people. What do you think is next?

*It’s not a war crime, since we’re not at war. It’s just murder.

I think it’s gonna just be the California map and the Texas map allowed in the midterms. I think SCOTUS will say it’s too late for Indiana or Virginia.
