Hopefully other outlets will pick it up & confirm this reporting. (It does fit with Hegseth’s worldview, for sure.)

Tweet from Doug Collins: Effective immediately, VA is halting enforcement of the interim final rule, Evaluative Rating: Impact of Medication. VA issued the rule to clarify existing policy and protect Veterans’ benefits in the wake of an ongoing court action. But many interpreted the rule as something that could result in adverse consequences. While VA does not agree with the way this rule has been characterized, the department always takes Veterans’ concerns seriously. To alleviate these concerns, VA will continue to collect public comments regarding the rule, but it will not be enforced at any time in the future.
BREAKING: SECVA Doug Collins has CANCELLED his effort to STRIP Veterans of their benefits thanks to MASSIVE backlash from We the People. WELL DONE and STAY LOUD!

T's team winds up the voter intimidation machine as the mid-terms approach. From MSNow:
www.ms.now/news/memo-sh...
Democrats should propose amendments to the SAVE act that require the government to furnish free IDs to all eligible voters before requiring them, automatically register all people to vote, expand mail-in voting, and create a national voting holiday. Then watch republicans block them.

In this incredible conversation she does what she does best - synthesize current events through the lens of American history. It's exciting to see her do it in conversation, in real time, with an optimistic eye toward the future.

Trump is losing this battle.
@kyledcheney.bsky.social tracks legal opinions in a new list: 373 judges against ICE’s policy, only 28 endorsed; Trump appointees split 44 against/ 20 for the policy.
This is so true!

Really good rundown of how DOJ & ICE are defying court orders in many ways:

Americans back significant changes to ICE:

Child at the podium: “A woo woo woo.”
Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.
The haste of ICE arrests w/ no regard to consequences = an overload of habeas petitions for DOJ lawyers. DOJ's dropped ball in many cases, missed deadlines, botched filings, violated orders. ICE isn't communicating with those lawyers, either. Looks like a real mess.
