Except in 1973 the Supreme Court was on the right side of history unlike today. Huge difference. The key difference. John Roberts was black robe maga before red hat MAGA was a thing.
This Epstein Files whitewash reminds me of the day in 1973 when Richard Nixon released heavily edited transcripts of the Watergate tapes,hoping that would make Watergate go away. Instead the public's desire for the real information only increased

Just here to remind everyone who fell for the “There’s a famine” and the “Israel is Starving Babies” narrative. It was all planned propaganda and a lie! What’s it say about you that you believe it?

it really feels like the end is near for Mike Johnson's speakership after a critical mass of House Republicans this morning forced a vote on ACA subsidies over his resistance

Dems haven’t forgotten how to fight; it’s that the general population has gotten more dumb and ignorant of both civics and history. Believing lies leads towards conservative voting patterns and we are 15 years into an accelerating information war that’s only raising the dumb levels at a higher clip.
@mattmurph24.bsky.social Thanks for catching this, for anyone who doesn’t have TikTok.

So I guess our rights aren’t natural or god given if this regime flat out doesn’t give a fuck.
WOW. So this is obviously a huge violation of this man's rights, and it illustrates a few things we're seeing broadly:

- DHS officers are ignoring peoples' IDs and instead requiring screening through their own systems
- Confirms @404media.co's reports of use of DHS's facial recognition app.

The man should never have been elevated to the federal bench in the first fucking place. Fuck me
Judge Emil Bove, Trump's former personal lawyer who Trump then appointed to the federal bench, has been hit with an ethics complaint for attending Trump's rally last night.

"[T]his was a highly charged, highly political event that no federal judge should have been within shouting distance of."

ICE trying to ORDER a church to REMOVE A NATIVITY SCENE is one of the most astonishing First Amendment violations I've seen in ever
ICE’s acting director ordered a Boston Catholic parish to tear down its Advent Nativity scene—stripped of baby Jesus and branded with the message “ICE WAS HERE.” The parish priest is refusing, citing he pope’s call to stand with migrants. It's another chapter in Kristi Noem's war on Christians.
“ICE Was Here”: Pope Leo-Inspired Nativity Scene Sparks MAGA Outrage
A Nativity scene missing Jesus — and marked with an “ICE was here” sign — has triggered cries of “politicizing Christmas.” The parish priest says he’s answering Pope Leo's call to welcome stranger.

If you want to school these masked thugs tell them in public thy have no reasonable expectation of privacy, and as such being filmed is totally legal. Tho I wouldn’t talk to these morons. Seems they don’t take kindly to the rule of law.
You have the right to record ICE.

You have the right to film any operation happening in public as long as you do not interfere or impede it.

Your camera is proof, but keep a safe distance. KEEP RECORDING.
