β€˜By retreating from meaningful judicial review exactly where it matters most, the Court abandons transgender children and their families to political whims. …It also authorizes, without second thought, untold harm to transgender children and the parents and families who love them.’ Sotomayor

Trump takes credit for 'good parts' of economy, blames 'bad parts' on Biden Last week, Trump put the onus on Biden for the economyΒ contractingΒ in the first quarter of the year.

Thanks for clarifying: you're going to blame Joe Biden for all of the wreckage of your tariffs and other blunders, but you'll take credit for his achievements in infrastructure and manufacturing. Got it.

Listen closely. He cheated. Elon rigged the voting machines. We all knew it, but never thought he’d admit.

NEW: Remember when the GOP, the right & originalists/literalists blasted Obama as an "emperor" for using exec. orders to implement policy? Trump has gone much further & is abusing laws to impose tariffs & mass-deport. So where are these conservatives now?

Last week, DHS and Secretary Noem's staff and spokespeople suggested that because Mr. Abrego Garcia had $1,100 in cash on him when arrested outside Home Depot seeking day labor, that was strong evidence that he was a member of MS-13.

I guess that raises a similar question about her $3,000.

Wilmer only found out his son had been detained after receiving a phone call on March 15 from his nephew, Luis, who lives with them. That morning was their last time together; they had gone around the corner to do their laundry. Later that day, Wilmer said that his son met with a friend to get help with some errands at the American Red Cross. He learned this from Luis, who looked at the situation from inside the apartment: when his son was on his way back, just steps from his home when ICE agents stopped him. β€œThe officers grabbed him and two other boys right at the entrance to our building. One said, β€˜No, he’s not the one,’ like they were looking for someone else. But the other said, β€˜Take him anyway.'”

That moment marked the beginning of Wilmer’s search for answers β€” answers he’s still waiting for.

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind.

An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one."

The other said, "Take him anyway."

So they did.

To no one's surprise, they're not actually looking for antisemitism. There's no mention of Great Replacement Theory, of Soros conspiracies, or even derogatory remarks about Jewish people.

Instead, they're looking for criticism of the Netanyahu government, which they'll call support for Hamas.

β€œThis is what democracy looks like.”
It was great to see thousands of people marching through the streets of downtown San Diego. Even if trump doesn’t care, congresspeople who have been ignoring their constituents & supporting trump/musk would be wise to take notice.

Rumors about Elon Musk leaving DOGE were just a distractionβ€”likely spread to prop up the stock after Tesla posted its worst delivery numbers in years and to prevent a potential free fall. Great job to everyone supporting the Tesla boycott!
