It only stops them from re-firing people until January of 2026 - I thought it was also a year.
So yeah, there’s not much of a win here. Apologies for the misread.
Reminder folks that the CR still has to pass the House AND IT SHOULD DIE THERE.
Make sure your rep is on board to vote NO.

This is the best explainer so far for why this was the best strategic move Justice Jackson could have made under these circumstances, "entirely understandable and defensible, even if I wish like hell it hadn’t come to this" as @stevevladeck.bsky.social puts it.

I'm dead serious. We live in incredibly stupid times.
The ICE stories in this Reddit thread should shake every American, regardless of party, to their core. We no longer have a Constitution. This is fascism, pure and simple.

Seattle / Tacoma area Sinclair stations are not showing Kimmel. They are, instead (and as always) bowing to Trump (who they worked hard to elect.)
Go after their advertisers. Here's a handy spreadsheet that someone else made. Use it. docs.google.com/spreadsheets...
