Remember, Trump illegally ordered this impoundment of funds, but the GOP approved it after the fact in its rescission package. This is on them, too.

I am baffled by the Washington Post's sanitized framing of this story. The Supreme Court is clearly going to "rule on the law" -- that is what courts do! The news is that SCOTUS signaled that it might gut the VRA entirely.
Compare WaPo and Democracy Docket's headlines. Which source do you trust?
A hunger strike at a South Florida immigration detention center state officials have named “Alligator Alcatraz” enters its tenth day, as detainees protest what they call inhumane and dangerous living conditions.

Not yet but she has a proffer agreement right now and he’s making sounds about it. Her attorney is the one suggesting that a pardon is being considered.

Stop assuming that she is going to anything that isn't in her own interest.
She's a sociopath at best, and she wants out of prison, any way she can.
A new report by Human Rights Watch and partner nonprofits released today confirms that migrants at the downtown Miami ICE facility were indeed shackled with hands tied behind their backs, forced to kneel, and made to eat from styrofoam plates “like dogs.”

Who has a pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell (on the condition that she can’t speak about Epstein) next on their list of predictions?

The bill adds 3-4 trillion dollars to the deficit.
They just lie.
Jason Delgado (Florida Capitol reporter for Spectrum News 13) on X: "Quick look at what inside a detainment tent looks like here at Alligator Alcatraz." What is shown in the picture is a long tent structure, about 50 feet wide. There is a corridor running down the middle. On each side are three rows of bunk beds. The bunk beds are sectioned off into cells which are constructed out of chain link fence, with chain link on the ceiling as well, making each cell a literal cage. It looks to me like each cell contains 9 bunk beds, so has capacity for 18 people each.
Literal cages. Not even metaphorical ones. Literal ones.

Colorful quilt of a nighttime scene with Harriet Tubman in an orange jacket and purple dress carrying a rifle. She is leading other figures who walk behind her.
Harriet Tubman #quilt by my Mom, Vera P. Hall, who makes quilts celebrating Black people who fought for their own freedom. This seems to be the crowd favorite of the “We Didn’t Wait for Freedom” series. Happy #Juneteenth #quilting

Today, on the 81st anniversary of D-Day, we honor the courage and sacrifice of the Allied forces who stormed the beaches of Normandy to defend freedom and democracy. Their bravery changed the course of history, and we will never forget their heroism.
