The law specifies a census every ten years, not whenever you feel like it could help your party.

This is MAGAs' new law-and-order hero: an alcoholic with a criminal spouse who couldn't cut it as a prosecutor or judge and got her TV gig as a favor to Trump.
When she gets behind the wheel, she's a danger to everyone.
One day she'll kill someone.
My quote of the day
I want to see young people in America feel the spirit of the 1960s and find a way to get in the way. To find a way to get in trouble. Good trouble, necessary trouble.

"Trump also seeks political control over agencies that have long operated at arm’s length from the White House, like the Bureau of Labor Statistics and Federal Reserve. That, too, has echoes of China where the bureaucracy is fully subordinate to the ruling party..."

Raskin: In any event, if he really cared about public safety in DC… he would not have pardoned 1600 insurrectionists and violent cop beaters on his first day in office.

Meme of Trump contradicting himself. Top: I didn't have the authority to call the National Guard in on January 6th. Bottom: I'm calling the National Guard in to DC to deal with the rampant crime and scum.
Donald Trump doesn’t give two shits about violent crime. HE is the one who orchestrated the coup on January 6th to overthrow his own government.
He watched all hell break loose at the Capitol and did NOTHING to stop it, so he can spare us with his law and order bullshit. All he does is LIE.
Hard to Disagree with Mr. De Niro !

COMING UP: Judge Charles Breyer is set to preside over a bench trial in Newsom v. Trump
The suit, brought by Governor Gavin Newsom, challenges Trump’s use of federal military forces to enforce immigration in California.
I plan to live-post for @lawfaremedia.org.

Wow! An epic sight of 100+ Rajah Brooke’s Birdwing today by our group on tour in Malaysia.
A lot bigger & a lot easier to identify than a Southern Small White in England!

If you think it's annoying to hear about how chronic illness symptoms impacts people, imagine feeling it everyday. Infinitely more annoying.

5/At a minimum, Hegseth should be called before Congress for oversight hearings. That won’t happen unless we make
noise. Call or write your members of Congress & subscribe to Civil Discourse to stay informed. joycevance.substack.com/p/the-week-a...
1/Trump’s Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, seems interested in making women 2nd class citizens. A tweet he posted late last week isn’t getting nearly enough attention. In any other administration, there would have been swift calls for his resignation. Here, mostly crickets.
