Supreme Court allows Trump to fire -- for now -- remaining Democrat on FTC At issue is whether the president has the authority to dismiss the heads of those agencies that are protected by Congress.

#SCOTUS upholds Trump firing of FTC Commissioner on shadow docket. Kagan dissents for 3 court libs. β€œOur emergency docket should not be used, as it has been here, to transfer govt authority from Congress to the Prez & thus to reshape the nation’s separation of powers.”

Texas Tech student expelled after video showing Charlie Kirk rant on campus An 18-year-old Texas Tech University student is no longer enrolled at the university after a video appearing to show her mocking the death of Charlie Kirk went viral.

This is the mugshot of a literal political prisoner, arrested, thrown in jail, then expelled from a public university, for yelling at Charlie Kirk supporters

Fantasy football is D&D for jocks.

The quarterback is the wizard. The plays are his spells. The more yards gained, the higher level he can upcast. Tackles are counterspells. Championship games are boss fights.

ICE now has a larger budget than Russia's entire army. Skyrocketing debt to give billionaires tax breaks. Millions losing their healthcare and food assistance programs. More concentration camps being built.

America isn't becoming a fascist state. It is one.

Dems alienating another generation of young voters when they have numbers like this sitting in front of them rises to a level of malpractice that can't just be explained by incompetence. They're willing to lose elections to ensure that they can continue on as a junior partner ruling over the ashes.

After months of ignoring our Constitution, it seems the Trump Administration has relented to our demands for compliance with court orders and due process for Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

This has never been about the man β€” it’s about his constitutional rights and the rights of all.

If you ever wonder how indiscriminate cuts affect your life, here's today's example. I consulted on a case of disseminated gonococcal infection. These isolates used to get automatically sent to cdc for testing and nationwide tracking. The lab was shut last month.

Republicans Are Already Plotting to Steal the Midterms With Trump’s help, Republicans across the country are sowing doubt about next year’s congressional electionsβ€”and gearing up for 2028.

If state election officials refuse to comply with Trump’s unlawful edict to share their voter rolls with Elon Musk, the attorney general could withhold law enforcement grants.

β€œHe’s going after the voter rolls in big cities, in blue states.”

The New York Times is the first to put out comprehensive estimates on the cost of a year without U.S.A.I.D. and they’re higher than I thought:
- 1.65 million deaths from AIDS
- 500,000 from lack of vaccines
- 550,000 from lack of food aid
- 290,000 from malaria
- 310,000 from TB
