President Free Speech has struck again!
Trump wants to cancel TV licenses because he doesn't like what late night TV hosts are saying about him.
What happened to "stop cancel culture" and buck up "snowflakes?" And what happened to the First Amendment?

In retrospect the Bush-era War On Christmas stuff seems more ominous than it did at the time. It was just cable news guys crying about dumb/fake shit, then and now; I mean the campaign to turn Christmas, which most everyone likes and feels warmly about, into just another thing to get mad about.

I was just at a Target, and then a smaller, upscale clothing store nearby (Upper East Side of Manhattan). Both were mostly empty, the smaller store about to close. This was at 3:30 in the afternoon. Of Christmas Eve. Not encouraging.

Anyway, if you want to help families be able to afford to eat this holiday season and beyond, consider making a regular cash donation to your local food bank.
And if you’re in Chicago, bring by your spare winter gear, books, toiletries, and supplies! We could use them in our mutual aid shelves.

SCOTUS just rejected Trump’s illegal deployment of the National Guard in Chicago, confirming what we knew all along - that turning the military on the American people is a disgusting misuse of our armed forces.
We got lucky this time, but our checks and balances remain under immense strain.
We got lucky this time, but our checks and balances remain under immense strain.
NEW: By a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court blocks Trump’s deployment of the National Guard to Chicago to assist immigration agents. A majority holds that he likely lacks authority to do so. Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...
![The Government asked this Court to stay the District Court's order. After the response and reply were filed, JUSTICE BARRETT referred the application to the Court. We directed the parties to file supplemental letter briefs on an issue that the District Court had addressed but the parties' initial briefs had not: the meaning of the term "regular forces" in §12406(3). In its supplemental brief, the Government argues that the term refers to civilian law enforcement officers, such as those employed by Immigration and Customs Enforcement or the Federal Protective Service.
Respondents, echoing the District Court, maintain that the term refers to the regular forces of the United States mili-tary.
We conclude that the term "regular forces" in §12406(3) likely refers to the regular forces of the United States mili-tary. This interpretation means that to call the Guard into active federal service under §12406(3), the President must be "unable" with the regular military "to execute the laws of the United States." Because the statute requires an assessment of the military's ability to execute the laws, it likely applies only where the military could legally execute the laws. Such circumstances are exceptional: Under the Posse Comitatus Act, the military is prohibited from "execut[ing] the laws" "except in cases and under circumstances expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress."
18 U. S. C. §1385. So before the President can federalize the Guard under §12406(3), he likely must have statutory or constitutional authority to execute the laws with the regular military and must be "unable" with those forces to perform that function.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:6h7b2i6ttw3l4t7pvbvxdith/bafkreiftbhzwvn3vgwhqsi7k2paizvdw4t26ailljvovso3chqupnmj364@jpeg)
