Trump went on Truth Social to slam Indiana Republicans for refusing to advance a redistricting plan that would eliminate several Democratic-leaning seats. He warned that if GOP leaders in the state Senate don’t reverse course, he’s prepared to back primary challengers against them.

Justice Alito swears he isn’t trying to overturn marriage equality, while the Supreme Court just so happens to be looking at a case that could do exactly that. Kind of like how Trump totally had no clue about Project 2025, right? 🙄

So Speaker Johnson gave the congress another week off. Paid of course, while they shut the govt down.
The GOP has made it clear they have no interest in compromise with Dems. So they will have to figure how to reopen their govt that they closed.
And they get another vacation

ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white.
Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace.

Trump promised an infrastructure bill for 4 years in his first term.
Said it was coming in 2 weeks many times.
Never delivered one.
Democrats then delivered critically needed funding for crumbling infrastructure.
Now Russ Vought is taking that away.
But only in blue states.

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

1930s Germany had moderates too.
Many stayed neutral, hoping things would “calm down.”
They didn’t want to make waves.
They didn’t see the cliff—until they were over it.
Silence isn’t neutral when democracy is under attack.
It’s permission.
