Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

Justice KBJ is a brilliant strategist. She is working the rules to compel timely review of the stay in the SNAP case by both the Circuit Court and by the Supreme Court. This is why knowing which SCOTUS justice has supervision of the Circuit you file in is essential.

Archaeologists have uncovered a Roman merchant vessel shipwreck from around ca. 320 CE near Mallorca. It was carrying olive oil, wine, and garum, “two leather shoes, a carpenter’s drill likely used for onboard repairs, and an oil lamp … Some amphorae, however, bear early Christian monograms.”
