FWIW, I see this order as a very encouraging sign for those who are hoping #SCOTUS *denies* the Trump administrationβs application.
There would be no need to issue it if the administration had five votes on the other two issues; and this is perhaps the strongest argument against it on the third.

Trump's βBig Beautiful Billβ Inverts Biblical Values
The Bible says whoever is kind to the needy, honors God. This budget has other ideas.
"The governmentβs spending decisions are made with our money and are nothing less than a reflection of our collective values as a society."

I also don't think he needed the GI Bill to go to college. His dad was a lawyer, his grandfather was a world famous architect and designer, and he himself has said that the reason he joined the marines after high school was a sense of adventure. I don't think he's nearly as working class as he says.

BREAKING: Democrats just tried to pass a standalone bill to fund WIC & SNAP to make sure families don't go hungry during the Republican shutdown.
Republicans BLOCKED it. So Trump won't use emergency funds to keep SNAP running, and Republicans won't let any bills pass. Shameful.

If you boycott elections, candidates logically ignore you and focus on the voters they can still get.
Thereβs a reason pundits keep nudging Dems to a mushy middle. Those folks are idiots, yes, but theyβre idiots who show up to vote.
And that matters more to a candidate than your smart apathy.

This is an excellent point. Zohran ran a textbook campaign that the centrists are always talking about, just talking about rent control and free buses and cost of living, and the centrist Dems tried to make it all about Israel/Palestine and other identity issues (his Muslim faith) to smear him.

Schoening: Says on video he saw FPS officers come out and talk with other officers about what was going on, and heard one of them say "need to engage."
For him, it captured a disconnect because there was no actionable criminal behavior taking place.

Given what I've heard from the objections so far, attorneys for defendants don't seem like seasoned litigators. "This is becoming a narrative" is definitely not a legitimate objection.
