Justice Alito’s latest opinion is a very, very bad sign for voting rights A decision upholding a New York GOP congressional district could be a prelude to killing the Voting Rights Act.

"Alito is essentially saying that districts drawn under the Voting Rights Act to remedy centuries of racial discrimination are as racist as the racism they were meant to rectify."

Read @ariberman.bsky.social on how the justice's latest opinion could portend the killing of the VRA.

Holy shit. These people shouldn’t be near sharp cutlery, let alone seats of power.

Mullin: β€œThis is war.”

Raju: β€œYou concede this is war?”

Mullin: β€œWe haven’t declared war.”

Reporter: β€œYou just said it’s a war.”

Bribe for hire Pam Bondi has rescinded the Biden-era policy against no knock warrants, Breonna Taylor was murdered due to one, and it was an important public safety measure that saved lives. ICE-Gestapo can now break into any home they choose.

This would be called fascism.

Kristi Noem on Alex Pretti: "I did not call him a domestic terrorist. I said it appeared to be an incident of."

Also Kristi Noem: "β€ŠThis individual…committed an act of domestic terrorism. That's the facts.”

It's crazy how fast things changed in the global order.

Trump casually threatened to invade NATO ally Spain during a press conference in the Oval Office, and it's not even surprising anymore.

Things like this make it really hard to take US security guarantees at face value.

I am not going to vote to cut a blank check for ICE and let them detain, brutalize, shoot, or kill more American citizens just because Donald Trump started an unconstitutional war that no one asked for.

700 Iranians have died in US-Israeli bombings in just a few days, many civilians and at least 153 children in the Minab Girls Elementary School Massacre.
This is exactly how USA creates a new generation of radical islamists, burning US flags.

In the end it's never worth it.
Will we ever learn.

The Cost of Preventable Suffering: Why Americans Die Younger Than Canadians From a bus ride in Connecticut to a bridge in Detroit, inequality decides who survives

People Born Across The Bridge Live 20 Years Longer. Why?

A Black child born in Windsor, Ontario, will likely live into her eighties.

A Black child born the same night in Detroit, visible across the river, is not likely to reach her seventies.

Policy is deadly.

Hegseth: 'We didn't start this war but under President Trump we're finishing it' The remarks are the first to reporters since the U.S.-Israeli military operations against Iran began Saturday despite weeks of talks designed to stave off a conflict.

Damn straight Trump started this war. This is the third time he has attacked Iran without provocation.

Dementia patients often go wandering at night. Trump’s decline can’t be hidden. And he cannot make decisions, so each dept becomes its own fiefdom, each with competing agendas. Pure disaster.

Inside the Pentagon, there was deepening concern Sunday that the Iran conflict could spiral out of control. β€œThe mood here is intense and paranoid,” one person said.

There is anxiety among senior leaders that the fighting will extend for weeks, further stressing limited U.S. air defense stockpiles.

pardon my ignorance but has Trump even laid out why he decided to light the Middle East on fire when Iran posed no imminent threat to America?

I thought his whole thing was β€œAmerica first” or whatever?

We’ve now got dead service members and nobody knows why?
