My dad made all 4 jumps with the 82nd Airborne in WWII, then fought in Korea. He would be livid to see what this cabal is doing to this country. It's like a bad dream.

If this true, it will be obsolete before it ever flies.

Title: Both Liberal and Conservative Judges Rule Against Trump Description: A scatter plot showing the rulings of judges against or in favor of Trump, categorized by ideology using the DIME score. The x-axis represents Judge Ideology (DIME Score), ranging from liberal (-1) to conservative (1), and the y-axis represents the case outcome (against or for Trump). • Blue dots represent liberal judges, purple dots represent moderate judges, and red dots represent conservative judges. • Some judges are labeled, including Rudolph Contreras, Lauren King, John Coughenour, and James Emanuel Boasberg on the liberal to moderate side, and Carl Nichols, Richard J. Leon, and Joseph N. Laplante on the conservative side. • A note mentions that Boasberg, though slightly right-leaning, was initially appointed by George W. Bush. • The visualization suggests that judges from both ideological backgrounds ruled against Trump.

1/🧵 Judges across ideological lines are ruling against Trump at strikingly similar rates (84% liberal, 86% centrist, 82% conservative). This isn't partisan opposition to Trump—it's the judiciary functioning as intended by cutting across partisan lines to uphold the Constitution.

Today I blocked out my newsfeed, put in my ear buds, and listened to music. It makes me happy and I highly recommend it.

Concerns for more tariffs as Shorten calls for Australia to fight back Former Albanese government minister Bill Shorten has called for Australia to retaliate against the US amid concerns for expanding tariffs.

The USA is no longer Australia's friend, nor is it a dependable ally. We should cancel #aukus and stop throwing good money after bad. #auspol www.thenewdaily.com.au/news/politic...

Everything you say to your Echo will be sent to Amazon starting on March 28 Amazon is killing a privacy feature to bolster Alexa+, the new subscription assistant.

If it needs to call home to work you don't own it anyway. Unplug this slop and drop it off for electronics recycling.
