"So, Democrats have three words for this: no fucking way. It's literally life or death. We will not let Republicans blow up our health care system."
This is, hands down, the best comms work Chuck Schumer has done in YEARS. Surprisingly good.

NEW: Chief Justice Roberts has halted the reinstatement of FTC Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter—whom Trump fired in direct violation of federal law—while the full court considers the case.
In other words, Slaughter just got booted from her job again. It's a worrisome sign for her ultimate prospects.

These motherfuckers are so racist and so don't care.
BREAKING: By an apparent 6–3 vote, the Supreme Court halts an injunction that had prevented immigration agents from racially profiling Latinos in central California.
Sotomayor, dissenting, says the decision is "unconscionably irreconcilable with our nation's constitutional guarantees."

If you don’t think Trump is compromised, ask yourself how Ghislaine Maxwell got a meeting with Todd Blanche and how Putin got a summit on American soil.

This is what I was afraid of. Think of the impact of removing the court’s ability to issue nationwide injunctions. The oligarchs on the Supreme Court just gutted the balance of powers.
The Supreme Court's conservative supermajority just took away lower courts' single most powerful tool for reining in the Trump administration's lawless excesses, stripping them of authority to issue universal injunctions that block illegal policies nationwide. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Today's Planned Parenthood decision was a devasting blow to women, and it wasn't even about abortion. It was a devasting blow to civil rights, and it wasn't even about Civil Rights.
It's one of the worst decisions from this SCOTUS, worse than you probably think.

She was confirmed, 59-34.
