The application for stay presented to THE CHIEF JUSTICE and by him referred to the Court is granted. The application is squarely controlled by Trump v. Wilcox, 605 U. S. ___ (2025). Although our interim orders are not conclusive as to the merits, they inform how a court should exercise its equitable discretion in like cases. The stay we issued in Wilcox reflected “our judgment that the Government faces greater risk of harm from an order allowing a removed officer to continue exercising the executive power than a wrongfully removed officer faces from being unable to perform her statutory duty.” Ibid. (slip op., at 1). The same is true on the facts presented here, where the Consumer Product Safety Commission exercises executive power in a similar manner as the National Labor Relations Board, and the case does not otherwise differ from Wilcox in any pertinent respect.

1/ If you're looking for the day the Supreme Court jumped the shark & defined itself into irrelevance, I suggest July 23, 2025.

Today, the court's conservatives told district court judges to ignore BINDING SUPREME COURT PRECEDENT if doing so would help Trump.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

The governing party of the United States is shutting down the federal government to cover-up evidence the president sexually abused children so he can continue trying to implement dictatorship.

That's just a true statement about the world!

Trump's new executive order about AI states that companies' models must not incorporate the idea that trans people exist as a concept. Seems bad.

In 2016 this guy went to a law office with the goal of killing his wife’s lawyer. He hacked a woman to death with a machete and bludgeoned two other people to death (including a man he falsely thought was that lawyer), then set fire to the building to cover his tracks.

Anyway, Trump just freed him.

So heartening to those of us who are trapped in red areas with people who breathe hate more than oxygen! It is great to see the people of #nebraska not putting up with the racism and the lies. #Mikeflood #Fightfascism @govwesmoore.bsky.social when does #Maryland redistrict? #Delmarva #easternshore

State capture feeds on despair.

"It's no use."

"They will never. . . "

"Why bother?

That's gasoline on the fire of fascism, folks. That's exactly what they're hoping you'll feel and say. Don't feed the fire. ❌ 🔥

He fled Boko Haram and helped build an award-winning restaurant. Now he’s facing deportation. Paul Dama left Nigeria after being kidnapped in 2018. His detention feels like "a second kidnapping," says his sister.

“I felt like someone just sucked my blood, my air. Like, how do you live?"

Buckle up, boys! New York has joined the fight. @govpritzker.illinois.gov .... You're up! Bring Illinois into the fray! Let's see them. Start cutting congressional districts through the middle of New York City, Chicago, and every major city in California!

New York has entered the chat 💬

Texas drawing a hard line in the sand! Thank you for standing up to the Bullies in Washington. I stand with you!!

Here’s a 🔥🔥exchange between me and Mick Mulvaney during @mehdirhasan.bsky.social's brilliant interview of Mulvaney on Al Jazeera's Head to Head. The whole episode is worth a watch, and you can find it on @aljazeera.com's YouTube channel.

I know it's tempting to hide here. This is a great platform for support but do not relinquish Twitter/X . There are progressive voices speaking out there, including ex-military members. We need the MAGA folks to see that we’re not going anywhere and confront them with the #epsteinfiles everyday.

Duffy to announce nuclear reactor on the moon This is the first major agency effort by the interim NASA administrator, who is also the Transportation secretary and a former Fox News host.

According to #Republicans, we don't have money for universal healthcare Meals on Wheels, childhood Cancer, NPR or PBS, but we have money according to the people who hate science to put a nuclear reactor on the moon. Are you ready to fight back yet?

Thank goodness! This is how we move forward ... seeing the same number of reposts as there are likes! Way to go and thanks to everybody who did so!

This is how you fight back: with courage, strategy, and zero patience for authoritarian bullshit. Jasmine reminding everyone that breaking quorum wasn’t cowardice: it was resistance. Let’s match that energy all the way to November this year in key elections in Virginia and beyond

He doesn’t want to “reduce chronic illnesses,” he wants to reduce people with chronic illnesses

This is our state! This is our time!

This is our path to saving OUR country!

If you are in #maryland, make sure you get up with your state legislator!

Tell them you want us to redistrict.

Tell them you want them to fight back!

And please don't like this, share it!

All hands on deck!

We’re keeping this country come hell or high water. Even if we must be the hell or high water.

This is something rural and red state Democrat county & state parties need to be doing. Host a harvest festival. Dirt road & dive bar diplomacy belong in a prominent place in a modern, progressive party. We used to realize that.

We’ve got to be present & invested in blue collars of all kinds.

More from our awesome members at yesterday's Blessing of the Combines! It is progressives who support farmers and what they need. We're hoping to make them understand that voting for conservatives means voting for an environment where their businesses can't thrive! #Maryland #Delmarva #voteblue

tRump shit on her dad, and she is taking his side.
WTF!!!
Whatever tulsi is drinking, meg is having double.
🤦🏻‍♂️

The firing of the BLS Commissioner, favorable treatment of Maxwell, intimidation of the universities—a notable week on the slide to a banana republic.

"ICE" GOON out dancing after spending the day chasing these same people down to kidnap and traffic them to death camps?!?!

Imagine getting fired because math hurt a man’s feelings. We’re being governed by a walking Yelp review.
