Justice KBJ is a brilliant strategist. She is working the rules to compel timely review of the stay in the SNAP case by both the Circuit Court and by the Supreme Court. This is why knowing which SCOTUS justice has supervision of the Circuit you file in is essential.

It's clear that the old guard white patriarchy currently in power has to be retired. We need younger, brighter, more visionary people of all cultures, genders, and races to lead us into the future. And it's happening, building from the grass roots!

Mike Johnson refuses to swear in Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva — because her vote could force the House to release the Epstein Files. The GOP is doing everything they can to keep Trump's Epstein cover-up going.

Joyful pandemonium reigned in Corvallis for about 3 hours today at the No Kings event, with thousands of people mobbing the downtown streets. I've never had so much fun at a protest organized for a desperately serious purpose, that of reclaiming democracy.

Enjoy this picture of the Portland Japanese Garden. Portland is being its usual quirky self as it faces fascist autocratic threats. There is no need for troops from other states to invade Portland and instigate violence. That would be a very costly and ridiculous waste of resources.

So the killer of Charlie Kirk was from a Trump supporting family, skillful with guns, and a right-wing fan of DJT dinner buddy Nick Fuentes. Why am I not surprised?

Labor Day protest in Corvallis: more like a street fair than a march. Mobs gathered at the Benton County Courthouse. Local chapters of major organizations had booths (e.g., Indivisible, Third Act, Good Trouble). Participants could write postcards and make signs. There was lots of drive by honking.

Help us cause some good trouble by doing a virtual Facebook “check-in” at Dade-Collier Training and Transition Airport today.
The more people who check in, the harder it is for surveillance tools to track who’s actually there. It’s a simple but powerful way to show up and support from a distance.
