🇸🇩🇺🇸 Sen. Van Hollen blasts the Trump administration for selling arms to the UAE while its Sudan allies continue to massacre children, pointing to the RSF attack on a kindergarten yesterday that killed at least 80 people, including 46 children (latest update from AJE).
The RSF just attacked a kindergarten, killing at least 33 children in Sudan.
Meanwhile, the Trump Admin. continues to sell arms to the UAE, who are aiding these atrocities.
Imagine if Trump spent as much time trying to stop the killing, as he did getting the UAE to invest in his crypto coin.

Yeah, this fucking sucks. Big Tech ruins everything. Their CEOs are the greediest fucking mongrels alive. Netflix can't just be happy with hundreds of millions of subscribers around the world. They need to go scorched earth on every competitor until there's absolutely no more "growth" possible.

If the Supreme Court pulled something like this while FDR was president, he would have had them escorted out of the building and nailed the doors shut. When the Dems take power, they should consider that.
This ruling only temporarily lets Texas use its new gerrymander for 2026, but by 2028, SCOTUS may have gutted the Voting Rights Act & the Texas GOP may have re-gerrymandered the map *again*, making it moot.
This SCOTUS has repeatedly let the GOP use illegal gerrymanders for at least one election

25 years ago John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, and AC Barrett all worked on GWBush's 2000 Florida recount team. What they're doing now is, if anything, more nakedly partisan.

Simply amazing that the Supreme Court declared an end to legal race discrimination in the affirmative action case two years ago and now allows overt racism in both immigration arrests and redistricting.
Using race to help minorities? Bad. Using it to discriminate against them? Very, very good.
