To return to a theme: why would you invest in a state where a judge of the apex Court is saying that Court will ignore any rule of law in order to make sure the administration gets what it wants?

How is your investment safe in that environment is any right exists only on whim?

May this portion of the dissent by Ketanji Brown Jackson haunt John Roberts forever and be the final word on his tenure as Chief Justice.

The Supreme Court ruled that the Trump administration can cut $783M of research funding. Public-health advocacy groups have said that the cuts will inflict “incalculable losses in public health and human life.” I wouldn’t call that a win.

@realdonaldtrump As slavery is being whitewashed, we must always remember our economic foundational mothers and fathers - the enslaved human beings whose lives were sacrificed for more than 240 years to make America great. #SlaveryRemembranceDay

MSNBC rebranding as MS NOW feels like a Trump-era move. Authoritarians blur fact and opinion on purpose. If Trump calls all news “fake,” MS NOW can answers with “here’s the news and the take.” It’s a sad time for journalism.

The BRICS are now trading more with one another than with America, and the gap is widening. China might be the biggest winner from Donald Trump’s reshaping of global commerce

Trump’s trade victims are shrugging off his attacks

And China is gaining in the process

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN CRIME IS NOT PUNISHED? This is what happens. Lawlessness. An inversion of accepted values. Anarchy. Chaos.

The Browns are naming QB Joe Flacco as their starter, the end of a training camp competition that never really was.

Flacco quickly emerged as QB1, while the others battled injuries. The player who led them to the playoffs in 2023 is back.

California is lucky to have such kind and dedicated public servants who keep our state running.

It was great to talk with SEIU 1000 yesterday about how I’ll lower costs for workers and families across California.

We need kindness. It is a wonderful thing to care about humans, it’s also very hard.

Sometimes I don’t want to because it hurts.

I am thankful to the creator that made me.

I am but a grain of sand here for a short period of time praying for all of US to be better.💜⚖️🕊

Instead of writing about Democrats who have arrest warrants because they refused to take part in rigging an election, the media should be writing about Texas trying to rig an election.

In July 1868, the 14th Amendment to the Constitution granted citizenship and equal rights to formerly enslaved Black Americans. Yet today, targeted racial gerrymandering and illegal voter suppression threaten those rights. 22 days until Slavery Remembrance Day. #CountDowntoSRD

The most frustrating thing about the current state of the country is that every statistic, headline, outcome, or “can you believe this?” has been entirely predictable.
