Will #SCOTUS simultaneously redefine "private property" & "owner's consent" before allowing ICE & ammosexual MAGA psychos unfettered gun power, so long as everyone is a white Christian male?
Probably.
And Clarence Thomas will prob write the exceptions banning Blacks/POC/🏳️⚧️ from those same rights. 😒

Also: if you work for ICE, even if you’re not one of the ones arresting citizens or tackling 15-year-olds or zip-tying kids together and segregating them by race, you’re part of the mechanism making it happen, and you should suffer long-term social and post-regime-change consequences.

In monochrome portrait is the lovely "Daisy" the Mule Deer fawn, resting backlit in the dappled afternoon light on a hillside above me so we're just about at eye level with her and those long lashes and enormous ears. I would also call this her 'fluffy' coat, IYKYK. Zen in black and white.
Even a wounded world is feeding us. Even a wounded world holds us, giving us moments of wonder & joy. I choose joy over despair. Not because I have my head in the sand, but because joy is what the earth gives me daily & I must return the gift.

Trump’s “Loyalty Oath” would let him and his unqualified bureaucrats run our colleges and universities. We must demand that our schools reject the regime’s blackmail attempts by committing to uphold freedom of speech and provide an affordable, safe education for all. 👇

The shutdown is bad for the economy, eh? Wait til you see how bad the mass firings that Trump & Vought are doing, and the loss of jobs in education & healthcare are from their Big Beautiful Bill. Then, add on loss of jobs due to tariffs.
Are Republicans having fun decimating our country???

'Troubling trend': Judge questions Trump administration's grasp on reality
A federal judge on Friday night released her full opinion justifying an earlier decision to block President Donald Trump from deploying Texas National Guard troops in Chicago, and she even went so far as to question his administration’s grasp on reality.
In her ruling, Judge April Perry began by citing a lengthy quote from the Federalist Papers in which Alexander Hamilton addressed concerns that a tyrannical US president would use a militia from one state to invade and occupy another state.
After giving the matter brief consideration, Hamilton dismissed fears about a would-be tyrant carrying out such a scheme on the grounds that “it is impossible to believe that they would employ such preposterous means to accomplish their designs.”
And yet, Perry noted, this exact scenario is one that the state of Illinois and the city of Chicago claim is happening right now, as they argue that “National Guard troops from both Illinois and Texas have been deployed to Illinois because the president of the United States wants to punish state elected officials whose policies are different from his own.”
Perry went on to consider circumstances in which the president may federalize the National Guard, and concluded that the administration’s case for sending the National Guard to Chicago did not meet any of them.
Perry noted that the president may federalize the National Guard if “there is a rebellion or danger of a rebellion against the authority” of the US government, but she argued there has historically been a “very high threshold for deployment” that is not justified by current circumstances.
“In the late 1800s and early 1900s, ‘rebellion’ was understood to mean a deliberate, organized resistance, openly and avowedly opposing the laws and authority of the government as a whole by means of armed opposition and violence,” she explained. “As an example, during the late 1800s, after the close of the Civil War, the Supreme Court and several statutes referred to the Civil War as constituting a ’rebellion.‘”
She then found that the administration itself has not claimed any Civil War-like rebellion is occurring in the US right now.
“In all of the memoranda actually deploying the National Guard to Illinois, the court does not see any factual determination by President Trump regarding a rebellion brewing here,” she wrote. “This is sensible, because the court cannot find reasonable support for a conclusion that there exists in Illinois a danger of rebellion.”
Elsewhere in the ruling, Perry examined the government’s claims that local law enforcement officials have been unable to contain demonstrations at the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Broadview, Illinois, which has become a focal point for protests in recent weeks.
Although there have been incidents in which local law enforcement has had to intervene to keep protesters from getting too close to the facility, Perry said, there has never been a level of disorder that would justify the deployment of the National Guard.
“The ICE Processing Center has continuously remained open and operational throughout the protest activity,” she wrote. “Broadview Police are not aware of any occasion where an ICE vehicle was prevented from entering or exiting due to activity by protestors.”
This led her to remark upon a “troubling trend” of the Trump administration “equating protests with riots” and “a lack of appreciation for the wide spectrum that exists between citizens who are observing, questioning, and criticizing their government, and those who are obstructing, assaulting, or doing violence.”
“This indicates to the court both bias and lack of objectivity,” she wrote. “Ultimately, this court must conclude that defendants’... perceptions are not reliable.”

ICE Propaganda Video Hit with DMCA Takedown Over Use of The Cure's "Friday I'm in Love"
A Department of Homeland Security social media post featuring The Cure’s “Friday I’m in Love” has been removed following a DMCA takedown request.
Trump is famous for not paying artists or companies for using their IP without permission. It makes sense his entire administration is the same way. The longer they are in power, the less rights people and companies will have to their own intellectual property.

Tall birch trees line a green lake and are reflected in the still water. They have lost their leaves for the season embracing the imminent hibernation. Tall rust grasses line the edge of the lake along with a couple of bushes glowing yellow with the autumnal change. Tall evergreens bring up the background. Framing the photo, craggy moss covered branches on either side of snap.
"I come into the peace of wild things who do not tax their lives with forethought of grief. I come into the presence of still water & I feel above me the day blind stars waiting for their light. For a time I rest in the grace of the world, & I am free"
- Wendell Berry
