Trump Is Fighting His Court Losses With a Surprising Legal Tactic Legal skirmishes between the administration and lower court judges have highlighted the way the federal court system itself has become a thorn in the president’s side.

The DOJ has asked the Supreme Court to intervene in an unusual way: end the practice of so-called β€œuniversal injunctions” against the federal government and rule that they have no effect.

This is why I still have FB active &.do not delete my less knowledgeable "friends". Most people are living in a vacuum - even here on BlueSky. It's imperative to seek several points of view, even from those opposite, and participate in civil discourse. Though lots have a difficult time being civil.

The damage is now done, back to the point - we have to unify. It really should not be a Democrat vs. Republican vs. Independent and everything in between. It needs to be Americans who believe in Democracy and the Constitution as intended by the founding fathers vs. those who do not....

I absolutely don't like either option and I can't say he did the right thing. Personally, I believe they're going to rampage regardless and I believe ceding power to the executive branch was not worth the gamble. ....

Agreed, let's not attack each other. This is a time for unity, that's the only way we can defeat this fascist regime.

Listening to an interview this morning, Schumer made a great point that Musk and Trump *hoped* for a shut down so they could continue their rampage of destroying our agencies....

We don’t if they were gang members, only that Trump’s DOJ says they were. But they’ve had no trials. They are β€œaccused.” They are β€œalleged” to be members of a gang that Trump has named. And now they are vanished.

This is an actual nightmare and we should be up in arms.

Bernie Sanders Is Showing Democrats How It’s Done The Vermont senator is taking his anti-Trump tour to red Americaβ€”and it’s a smash hit.

Rather than bunker down, Sanders is in the arena, communicating that he is a fighter, that he’s not cowed, and that he’s willing to take on Trump and his kleptocratic regime.

Whether Judge Boasberg was correct on the law is largely irrelevant to whether the government is in contempt for willfully disobeying it. If the Trump administration knew there was an order from a federal judge and then willfully violated it, that is the end of the analysis.

Democrat Finally Loses It Over Elon Musk in Epic Rant Representative John Larson called out Musk for only looking out for his own wallet.

β€œIf he’s so great, if these plans and all the fraud and abuse that he’s found are so eminent, why isn’t he here explaining it?” Larson demanded of Republicans.

β€œYou know why. Because he wants to privatize Social Security.”

Rubio says South African ambassador β€˜no longer welcome’ in US | CNN Politics US Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Friday said that South Africa’s ambassador to the United States β€œis no longer welcome in our great country.”

This act is a blatant admission of the point Mr. Rasool has made. The goal to marginalize all minorities (BIPOC, Trans, and Women) has been underway. It is equal parts infuriating, sickening, and depressing.

BREAKING: Senate just UNANIMOUSLY restored $1.1 billion for DC local govt that was eliminated

Why?

Because Senators of BOTH parties work in DC - and most have homes there - and none of them want to be in a hellhole

Now - try applying that same logic to THE REST OF THE COUNTRY

The Tesla domino is shown being pushed over by a crowd of small figures holding signs that say "FUCK TRUMP," "FUCK ELON," and "FUCK NAZIS," symbolizing a chain reaction leading to the fall of the subsequent dominos.
