Political scientist Adam Bonica noted last Friday that Trump and the administration suffered a 96% loss rate in federal courts in the month of May. Those losses were nonpartisan: 72.2% of Republican-appointed judges and 80.4% of Democratic-appointed judges ruled against the administration. The administration sustained more losses today. U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan ruled that 14 states can proceed with their lawsuit against billionaire Elon Musk and the “Department of Government Efficiency.” The administration had tried to dismiss the case, but Chutkan ruled the states had adequately supported their argument that “Musk and DOGE’s conduct is ‘unauthorized by any law.’” “The Constitution does not permit the Executive to commandeer the entire appointments power by unilaterally creating a federal agency…and insulating its principal officer from the Constitution as an ‘advisor’ in name only,” she wrote. U.S. District Judge Richard Leon struck down Trump’s March 27 executive order targeting the law firm Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr, more commonly known as WilmerHale. This law firm angered Trump by employing Robert Mueller, the Republican-appointed special counsel who oversaw an investigation of the ties between the 2016 Trump campaign and Russian operatives.

I’m so sorry. I’ve had slow illnesses, amputations, and sudden, unexpected ones. Old ones, young ones. Alpaca, cats, dogs. It all hurts.

You can’t say criminals don’t deserve due process when due process is the thing that decides if they're criminals. Otherwise you're just kidnapping people you don't like.

Is The GOP’s Tax Revolt Collapsing? The anti-tax movement has dominated American politics for 50 years — but it may finally be fraying.

70% of Republican voters want to raise taxes on the rich, according to new poll data.

Grover Norquist is calling Republicans pushing the idea “traitors.”

Media's coverage wasn't detailed enough so I dug into his testimony:

Doctor Behind Award-Winning Parkinson’s Research Among Scientists Purged From NIH Leading scientists at the National Institutes of Health, the US’s leading medical research agency, were swept up Tuesday in the Trump administration’s latest firing blitz.

Leading scientists at the US National Institutes of Health were swept up Tuesday in the Trump administration’s latest firing blitz. Among them is Dr. Richard Youle, known for his groundbreaking research identifying mechanisms behind Parkinson’s disease.

Of Course Trump Will Tank the Economy. It’s What Republicans Do. As the president’s “Liberation Day” nears, it’s time to liberate ourselves from the vicious cycle of Democrats having to clean up the GOP’s messes.

Here's one statistic for you:

→ Net jobs created under Clinton and Obama: 33.8 million.
→ Net jobs created under Bush, Bush, AND Trump: 1.9 million.

That is not a typo.

3rd day in a row on the golf course while Musk runs the country. He didn’t even know yesterday that the head of the Social Security Admin resigned, and didn’t know SpaceX employees were working at the FAA/DOD, and claimed Medicaid wasn’t being cut when it’s being cut massively.

There will be an economic blackout Feb 28 nationwide. This means don't buy ANYTHING unless it's from a small business. Do not use Target, Walmart, or Amazon. Get the word out! We want THEM to see that WE have the power. We will start with 1 day, then 3, then specific companies.

I just met with Community Health Centers from Oregon that told me providers across our state are starting layoffs because of Trump's funding freeze. Donald Trump is already forcing kids and families to go without the health care they need.

17. Nevertheless, the loss of 20% of our staff will have an immediate and significant effect on the services we are able to provide. And although we are grateful to the state for these allocations, we cannot count on them indefinitely. This has only bought us some more time, but if the freeze is not stopped, we will shut down and the people we serve will be helpless. They may wind up in much more expensive settings like nursing homes or group homes. They may wind up homeless on the streets. Or worse. 18. I am desperate to bring attention to our situation. I cannot believe anyone would NOT want to help an 86-year-old woman get to her dialysis sessions, or a family with Autism and Intellectual Disability get help to live on their own instead of being committed to an institution.
