I declare that in my home, the California Constitution is the law of the land, superseding Federal law, because Californians enjoy expanded rights, including an explicit right to privacy & the right to reproductive freedom. I also declare that if Trump doesn’t like it, he can kiss my ass.
An overview of the California constitution. California law strongly protects women's rights, particularly in areas like reproductive health, equal pay, and freedom from violence. The state constitution explicitly protects the right to abortion and contraception. California also has robust equal pay laws, protections against domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking, and laws ensuring access to education and housing for victims of gender-based violence. The California Republic flag.

Why has Dominion Voting Systems been settling defamation lawsuits with Trump allies who falsely claimed the company stole the 2020 election?

Because Dominion has just been bought by a company run by a former GOP election official.

Be warned.

Today’s Norway is not our parents or grandparents’ Norway and it shows with this selection too. A selection by Norway’s king would be better than this one by this Norwegian committee.

They gave the award to a Trump supporter who dedicated the award to him. I have no respect for the award, nor for the Nobel peace prize committee anymore.
María Corina Machado © @MariaCorinaYA This recognition of the struggle of all Venezuelans is a boost to conclude our task: to conquer Freedom. We are on the threshold of victory and today, more than ever, we count on President Trump, the people of the United States, the peoples of Latin America, and the democratic nations of the world as our principal allies to achieve Freedom and democracy. I dedicate this prize to the suffering people of Venezuela and to President Trump for his decisive support of our cause!

Instead it was awarded to a big Trump supporter. Machado supports Trump blowing the Venezuelan boats and welcomes a US invasion of Venezuela to overthrow Maduro. Wild choice to give the peace prize to someone advocating for a regime change war.

It was awarded to a Trump sycophant who dedicated the peace prize to him. I have no respect for the award or the people who decide who gets the award.

She literally dedicated the prize to him so I guess there’s always a roundabout for these disgusting people.

Requesting that people to do basic research because we are in the midst of a massive propaganda war funded by some of the most corrupt corporations on earth and they are very bad people.

Or that orders boats blown up without solid proof of who, what, and why the people were on the boat. No proof they were a danger to the USA.

It IS hard!

So, the Nobel Committee did the next best thing to placate the giant man-baby sitting in the WH: They voted for a total Trumper.

THIS is their “consolation prize”…

But apparently it was easy for them to award the Nobel Peace Prize to someone who praises Trump & dedicated the prize to him.

In a very real and practical sense, the elimination of USAID occurred because a) civil servants who followed the law were pushed out, b) unaccountable amoral people were given power, and c) SCOTUS let it all happen.
donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-death-...
In addition to mass firing of public servants, Musk's team executed a takeover of the Treasury payment system. David Lebryk, the civil servant who was acting Treasury Secretary, pushed back against the Musk official, Tom Krause, who demanded control over the payment system and specifically to pause USAID payments. Lebryk informed Krause that Treasury could not legally stop payments, and recommended to work through USAID instead. Krause then threatened Lebryk: “I would also recommend you consider an equal alternative liability.” By the next week Lebryk announced his retirement, and Musk announced he was shutting down the agency. It was later revealed that the other DOGE official who had sought to take control of Treasury spending, Marko Elez, was a self-avowed racist with a record of making disparaging remarks about foreigners, including “I would not mind at all if Gaza and Israel were both wiped off the face of the Earth.” After he resigned, Musk led a successful campaign to bring Elez back into government, even as he pushed out those doing actual life-saving work.

The elimination of USAID is a moral atrocity and all involved made a choice to enable, and then lie about, ending the lives of some of the most vulnerable people in the world.
MAE SOT, Thailand (AP) - Mohammed Taher clutched the lifeless body of his 2-year-old son and wept. Ever since his family's food rations stopped arriving at their internment camp in Myanmar in April, the father had watched helplessly as his once-vibrant baby boy weakened, suffering from diarrhea and begging for food. On May 21, exactly two weeks after Taher's little boy died, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio sat before Congress and declared: "No one has died" because of his government's decision to gut its foreign aid program. Rubio also insisted: "No children are dying on my watch." That, Taher says, "is a lie."

Convicted Felon Donald Trump must have threatened the doctor to lie about his health. He’s in exceptional health like I’m a 22 year old size 0 fashion model.

Spoiler: I’m not 22 years old or a size 0. Or a model. 😝 😬
