That “uh” is doing so much work there
Jim Banks: "The Medicaid, uh, reforms would affect able-bodied Americans. Those who are sitting at home who can work, who don't work, who don't have a sick kid or a sick mom. They shouldn't receive Medicaid without working."

In effect, the Supreme Court ruled that only it could decide issues on a national level. And then, with thousands and thousands of people waiting in limbo for resolution of many legally disputed Trump orders, the justices went on summer vacation, not to return until October.

Chris Murphy: "By taking away the power of courts to restrain the president when he is clearly acting in an unlawful manner, as he is when he says children born in the US are no longer citizens, you are assisting him in trying to undermine the rule of law and undermine our democracy."

Keep this kind of detail in mind as you listen to those in US calling for war on Iran.
An Afghan man who worked as a translator for the U.S. military during the war was detained by ICE after showing up for a hearing inside of a federal courthouse in San Diego, his attorney says. He fears that if he returns to Afghanistan, he would be tortured or even killed, @nbcsandiego.com reports.

If you look at the police that's suspicious and you're going to jail. If you don't look at the police that's suspicious and you're going to jail. If you walk outside that's suspicious and you're going to jail. If you stay in that's suspicious and you're going to jail. Welcome to fascism citizen.
Nobody is rioting. Nobody is breaking any laws. These are cops in my city of Las Vegas just assaulting and arresting anyone on Fremont Street who looks at them. This is fascism.
