Thank you, Elie Mystal. ⚖️

"And in a major shift from past administrations, the Justice Department under Trump agrees that Section 2's protections against racial discrimination are no longer constitutional.

Two years ago, the Supreme Court rejected a similar argument by Alabama Republicans."

A Supreme Court ruling on voting rights could boost Republicans' redistricting efforts A Supreme Court case over Louisiana's congressional map could determine the future of Voting Rights Act protections against racial discrimination and allow Republicans to draw 19 more House seats.

If the plaintiffs in Louisiana v. Callais win, the GOP could potentially add 19 House seats nationwide if the Supreme Court dismantles Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act (VRA).

No president should be allowed to nominate three Supreme Court judges during their presidency.

Perfection. 🎶♥️⚖️

Hegseth, Vance, Miller. All overgrown adolescents working out some teenage angst.

Baby, baby
Stick your head in gravy
Wash it off in bubble gum
And send it to the Navy

The GOP's talking points in action - - and they're horrible actors - - "hate America rally" will prove to be their biggest political mistake by this weekend, when patriotic Americans all over the country march, because we LOVE our country and will stand to save it from tyranny. ⚖️🇺🇸❕

#NoKings 🐸

Stephen Miller. One little unkind man.
Surely the good American people are more powerful than he believes he is.

"'It’s a mighty battle going on. It’s not about winning or losing. It’s about being in touch with your own personal humanity because there’s such a lack of it coming from this administration,' Sheen told host Nicolle Wallace."

Humanity. Pass it on...

ICE targeted an apartment building near my home. Masked agents in unmarked cars. I've said this before. Democratic Governors & Mayors need to order their local police depts to arrest any & all unidentified & masked alleged ICE agents.

This anonymous denial of due process is deadly.

If THIS happening in the United States of America doesn't ANGER every American to their core, then they do not deserve to be called an AMERICAN ❕⚖️🇺🇸

Everyone with the capacity to get there should be at a No Kings rally this Saturday.

THE POWER OF THE PEOPLE IS STRONGER THAN ICE AND DONALD TRUMP ❕

⚠️ Warning: these back-to-back scenes are hard to watch unless you’ve got a depraved heart.

These are thugs, not officers with any real training. We keep seeing it again and again, and at this point, it’s clearly the op.

"I’m going to say this the last time and then move back to basketball. This should be about the morality of our country and not about the race. This has nothing to do with Black and White. Black and White should be grabbing arms together on this one and fighting against this.”

We all need to get an inflatable frog suit.
This has only just begun! 🐸🇺🇸⚖️

It’s way past time for Mike Johnson to stop the political games and seat Adelita without delay. Today, my office is sending a letter to Speaker Johnson demanding he do so.

"Sanders has begun asking attendees of his 'Fighting Oligarchy' meetings about AI and data centers, and has found little political support for them.
'For any Democrat who wants to think politically, what an opportunity,' Shakir said. 'The people are way ahead of the politicians.'"

Here's the joint statement from the TV networks, including Fox News, rejecting Pete Hegseth's Pentagon rules.

The Safe Space Secretary Pete Hegseth built his career on Fox News mocking "snowflakes." Now, Status has learned, his former employer and others are rejecting his efforts to build a safe space around the Pentagon.

Scoop: Even Fox News won't sign on to Pete Hegseth's draconian Pentagon press rules, setting up a showdown between the snowflake defense secretary and his former employer.

Details in @status.news: www.status.news/p/pentagon-p...

"I think it's going to backfire," as well, Oliver Darcy.

And yes, "Pete Hegseth is just way out of his league here."

(Once a punk...)

If men with guns and masks tried to pull me out of my car, I'd fight back. Courts should reject any claims by the government that this is aggression by the person being detained, resisting arrest, or that they're a flight risk.

Enter George Stephanopolous.

"A nation—especially this one, with its short memory and incomprehensible diversity—can’t cohere simply as a geographic boundary and a set of laws. It needs a common language and culture—a way of life."

In a U.S., where income is a huge dividing line & media is subjective, "common" seems unlikely.

Do it❕⚖️🇺🇸

Speaker Johnson, you are not above the law!

It is to the shame of all the male reporters in the room that they do not immediately leave

"Covering your face with sunglasses and a mask can work, but it also makes you look like the faceless law enforcement officers of the other side. Protesters have embraced practical whimsy by becoming frogs, dinosaurs, and Pikachus."

Which Republican genius came up with the talking point to label millions of ordinary Americans peacefully protesting their government as paid Marxists who hate America?

That’s really what you are going with?

That we hate the United States of America?

Fuck you.
