Just to help save everyone some time, if you're asking whether a SCOTUS decision means a Democratic president can now...

No. It does not mean that. You don't need to finish your question.

A thing I couldn’t stop thinking about as Gillibrand ranted about defending Jewish people: in the 1980s, how many Jews were at her elite upstate all-girls boarding school? How many Jews in Kappa Kappa Gamma at Dartmouth? Zohran Mamdani grew up on the UWS and graduated from Bronx Science in 2010.

In 1953, the US govt helped and supported the overthrow of the democratic Iranian govt. The autocratic shah was installed. Our govt did the same thing in several Central and South American countries. These regime changes hurt those countries. So tired of my fellow citizens not knowing this history.

If Donald Trump slaps 25% tariffs on Canadian goods, we must hit backβ€”dollar for dollarβ€”starting with 100% tariffs on all Tesla vehicles and U.S. wine, beer, and spirits. We must protect Canadian workers and businesses. chrystiafreeland.ca

Lee: Oligarchs should not control our government. Elon Musk certainly does not have the best interests of working people, no matter what Latin phrases he uses on Twitter.

Nancy Mace Calls Police on Prominent Foster Youth Advocate A former foster youth and award-winning advocate was arrested at the U.S. Capitol tonight after Rep. Nancy Mace accused him of assault.

The person who supposedly β€œassaulted Nancy Mace” was just a foster youth advocate who literally did nothing more than shake her hand.

Wow.

N.J. just struck a blow against banning books It's called the "Freedom to Read Act."

NJ passes a law preventing cranky fucknuts from going apeshit on school libraries and librarians.
