Nor is it debatable that the role of the Judiciary in our constitutional scheme is to ensure fidelity to law. But these core values are strangely absent from todayโs decision. Focusing on inapt comparisons to impotent English tribunals, the majority ignores the Judiciaryโs foundational duty to uphold the Constitution and laws of the United States. The majorityโs ruling thus not only diverges from first principles, it is also profoundly dangerous, since it gives the Executive the go-ahead to sometimes wield the kind of unchecked, arbitrary power the Founders crafted our Constitution to eradicate. The very institution our founding charter charges with the duty to ensure universal adherence to the law now requires judges to shrug and turn their backs to intermittent lawlessness. With deep disillusionment, I dissent.
KBJ, in dissent, calls today's ruling "profoundly dangerous" and an "existential threat to the rule of law." She expresses her "deep disillusionment" with the court and suggests that the conservative supermajority continues to crown Trump a king above law. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Just a reminder that Mexico was one of the countries that sent brave men and women to help fight the wildfires in L.A.

So I sounded the alarm about DOGE slowing down Americans' benefits based on those liesโand they backtracked.
We're not letting DOGE get away with messing with Americans benefits.
