Neither Donald Trump nor any Supreme Court majority can “roll back” birthright citizenship. It’s a power the people have never granted them.
looking forward to either a 6-3 decision that trump as God Emperor of the United States can change the constitution by fiat or a 5-4 decision that 14th amendment means what it says with a dissent from thomas that actually the constitution recognizes donald j. trump as sovereign

Hey, let’s signal boost this widely!

We appreciate you, Free DC!
We’re outside the Kennedy Center today where Donald Trump is attending the World Cup draw. The World Cup is a chance for the world to come together but this president is a leader who represents nothing but division, greed, and cruelty.

They did it, y’all. They really did it.

FIFA gave Donald J. Trump “The-FIFA-Peace-Prize-Football-Unites-the World” to recognize his “exceptional actions for peace.”

Absolutely obscene.

Minneapolis banned ICE from staging raids on city property. Businesses can do the same.

Refusal is legal. Refusal is visible. Refusal is power.

Hey Friends, absolutely crucial not to give in to despair, or as it is often known, on here, as doomerism.

And action is indeed an antidote to despair, always!
“Despair will not stop the siege on the rule of law or stop the seemingly endless suffering caused by our callous politics. Eleanor knew this firsthand. Weeks before her address to the DNC, the battle of France had ended in defeat, and Britain retreated from the continent, fearing they’d be next.”
No Ordinary Time
Eleanor Roosevelt remains a striking example of the struggle against authoritarianism in dark times.

Useful reminder. We really do all have to talk talk talk with people, offline.
More proof of what @prisonculture.bsky.social says that most people in this country have no idea what's going on:

Yesterday two different clients told me they wanted to take their cases to the Supreme Court because they knew there was still a liberal majority.

As of late, curator Erika Hirugami has been wondering if the curatorial field is poised to take a revolutionary stand against fascism. Why are curators not as politically active in the public sphere, as artists have been since the dawn of time?

Many of my fellow curators, especially at institutions, have failed to speak out against fascism. What is it about being a curator that offers a free pass for political silence?

Ben Shapiro, David Ellison, Brian Armstrong, Alex Karp, Scott Bessent.

As a former prosecutor, I know a grand jury would indict a ham sandwich. The grand jury’s refusal today to indict Letitia James shows this case should never have been brought.

When we flip the House, we will investigate everyone involved for abuse of power.

Arresting or fining people who can’t afford housing is cruel AND ineffective.

It does nothing to solve homelessness, OR to decrease the number of ppl sleeping on trains.

NEW: Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani said Thursday he will not continue sweeps of homeless encampments — which city data shows have not yielded any permanent or supportive-housing referrals in more than a year.

You 2 are "Good Germans."
The pardons Trump is handing out are a huge, growing scandal that not enough people are talking about. This is a money making operation - for for Trump, his family, his crypto pals, and the Trump-affiliated lobbyists and grifters who the pardon seekers pay.

They are murdering people for lulz.

They do not need network specials.

They are not responsible enough for any public office.

We don’t have to give them credit they do not deserve.

We need to insist on consequences.

Impeach Hegseth.

That’s just one crucial thing.
