Pretty convincing response from Trump to the WSJ story about him sending an Sex Vampire Birthday Greeting to Jeffrey Epstein. Going to go ahead and declare this one "a nothing burger."

Dems need long term signaling that caving to Trump will be punished by a future administration. Bukele should know he and El Salvador will be immediately sanctioned. Universities and law firms should feel zero long term advantage from capitulating instead of protecting their independence.

law professors have been unable to understand why people are actually concerned about this case. it’s not about nationwide injunctions per se, it’s about a court that waited until the issue hurt the GOP, and then intervened on behalf of one of the most egregious constitutional violations we’ve seen
Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson called yesterday's decision about nationwide injunctions "an existential threat to the rule of law."

She's mistaken.

You have no obligation to defend or explain the behavior of random street protesters. We have a lawless government that is flagrantly violating its legal, moral, even philosophical obligations to us. Everything else is secondary

I know it's not the most important thing here but this story also corroborates one of my biggest theories about these tech guys: they do zero hours of work in a day. They do no work no matter how much they claim to work 14 hours a day. They're just on their phones.

I won't speak for others but I want candidates who won't just win the next election but aggressively, unapologetically destroy trumpism and rebuild everything he's broken. If you're too afraid of a 51-49 poll to even talk about an issue I have no faith that will be you
NEW: A deportation case exposes a rift among Democrats over how to take on Trump

One camp sees a pivotal moment to lean in and fight a lawless move.

Another camp sees a trap and wants to pivot to hitting Trump on his growing economic vulnerability.

Abrego Garcia's deportation case exposes a rift among Democrats over how to take on Trump
As some Democrats vocally push for the release of the man the administration says was mistakenly deported, others have sought to steer clear and focus on high prices and economic issues.

Kind of funny that a lot of this is happening because all these rich and powerful people are afraid to contradict a fey old dunce who watches TV for 19 hours every day. A fitting way to go out for the worst and wimpiest elite the US ever produced. "Can't read, didn't want to get yelled at."

in a few years, all the same political reporters who are sanewashing and steelmanning every trump statement will laugh and tell you "everyone knew" how senile trump was. "an open secret" they'll say. Not open enough to tell their audience but all the "right people" already know now and are hiding it
The white house press corps spent years pretending not to notice Reagan had dementia.

Y'know, the idea that government authorities have a cheat code by moving people out of the jurisdiction would have just a bit more persuasive force were it not a specific offense of the crown listed in the Declaration of Independence.
Look how sneaky this is. She was taken at roughly 5:45p and by 6:36p an ICE transport was already on the road carrying her out of MA into another federal district. No arrival time is listed in that 2nd district, but she was already on her way to a 3rd by 9:30p. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...
