Get Trump out

Hegseth Orders Navy to Strip Name of Gay Rights Icon Harvey Milk from Ship Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered the Navy to take the rare step of renaming a ship, one that bears the name of a gay rights icon, documents and sources show.

Just an extra little bit of "Fuck You" from the MAGAts, intentionally timed for pride month.

Trump is threatening to impose tariffs on two American companies | CNN Business President Donald Trump is using his love of tariffs to threaten high-profile American companies.

Trump keeps using Mafia-like threats to get firms "not to publicly attribute price hikes to tariffs." When Mattel's CEO talked of this, he responded: “We’ll put a 100% tariff on his toys, and he won’t sell one toy in the United States... I wouldn’t want to have him as an executive too long.”

WTAF! I am so sad to see what is happening in the USA. It's only a matter of time and the UK will be the same!!!

Unusual.

Don’t ever tell me that Christians support the GOP. There is nothing Christian or Christ-like about this. Just plain old cruelty and callousness:

Our boss is off for the week, so we are now our boss. This week we will mainly focusing on bringing back Eurotrash, rebranding our streaming service again (Possibly to ‘Channel Phwoar’) and seeing if we can figure out the password for the ITV accounts.

When will Trump be arrested...he is literally "unconstitutional"

Case 1:25-cv-00916-JDB Document 138 Filed 05/23/25 Page 1 of 52 UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA JENNER & BLOCK LLP, Plaintiff, V. U.S. DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, et al., Defendants. Civil Action No. 25-916 (JDB) MEMORANDUM OPINION In our constitutional order, few stars are as fixed as the principle that no official "can prescribe what shall be orthodox in politics. W. Va. State Bd. of Educ. v. Barnette, 319 U.S. 624, 642 (1943). And in our constitutional order, few actors are as central to fixing that star as lawyers. This case arises from one of a series of executive orders targeting law firms that, in one way or another, did not bow to the current presidential administration's political orthodoxy. Like the others in the series, this order which takes aim at the global law firm Jenner & Block-

makes no bones about why it chose its target: it picked Jenner because of the causes Jenner champions, the clients Jenner represents, and a lawyer Jenner once employed. Going after law firms in this way is doubly violative of the Constitution. Most obviously, retaliating against firms for the views embodied in their legal work— and thereby seeking to muzzle them going forward-violates the First Amendment's central command that government may not "use the power of the State to punish or suppress disfavored expression." Nat'l Rifle Ass'n of Am. v. Vullo, 602 U.S. 175, 188 (2024). More subtle but perhaps more pernicious is the message the order sends to the lawyers whose unalloyed advocacy protects against governmental viewpoint 1 Case 1:25-cv-00916-JDB Document 138 Filed 05/23/25 Page 2 of 52 becoming government-imposed orthodoxy. This order, like the others, seeks to chill legal representation the administration doesn't like, thereby insulating the Executive Branch from the judicial check fundamental to the separation of powers. It thus violates the Constitution and the Court will enjoin its operation in full.

Conclusion Jenner raises many more claims of unconstitutionality. These present interesting, difficult, and potentially meritorious questions about the scope of presidential power and more. What has been said here of the First Amendment (and in passing of the Fifth and Sixth), however, is sufficient to declare Executive Order 14246 unlawful and enjoin its operation, eliminating the need to explore those other questions. So the Court need not break new ground: 51 Case 1:25-cv-00916-JDB Document 138 Filed 05/23/25 Page 52 of 52 Executive Order 14246 violates settled First Amendment law and its operation must be enjoined in full. Jenner's motion for summary judgment is granted; the defendants' motion is denied. A separate order will issue. Is/ JOHN D. BATES United States District Judge Dated: May 23, 2025

BREAKING: Judge John Bates, a George W. Bush appointee, holds that Trump's executive order targeting Jenner & Block is likely unconstitutional — "doubly" — and will be blocked in full. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

There's a rainbow of rhododendrons at Stoneywell!

This epitomizes one of the biggest problems with the "new right," which is that many of them cannot distinguish between "cancel culture" and "having standards."

You simply do not have to praise someone for saying "Heil Hitler." That's not intellectual bravery. It's depravity.

“Honey that stripper wasn’t giving a lap dance to ME — she was giving a lap dance to EVERYONE who advocates for freedom!”

Oops.

This is how it works. They claim you are <bad thing>, ship you out of the country before anyone can react and then claim they can't bring you back.

And they're not even shying away from wanting to do it to US citizens. No due process. Just gone. If you think they won't target us, you are mistaken.

STOP what you are doing, find some headphones or a secluded location, and watch this. I am crying with laughter and admiration at an idea seen through to its (nearly) bitter end. www.youtube.com/watch?v=cD3Q... Sound--as they say--on.
