As Trump attempts to re-segregate America, never lose sight of the fact that Elon Musk stands to financially benefit from the federal government no longer enforcing anti-segregation laws.

You know that scene in Braveheart where Wallace is betrayed by the Scottish nobles and he chases one down and finds out it was Robert-the-Bruce.
And then Wallace just lays on the ground in disbelief at the betrayal?
That’s how I feel right now. Chuck Schumer is a weaker Robert the Bruce.

For those folks who have been waiting to climb the pole and ring the “constitutional crisis” bell, it would appear we have arrived. Neither Judge Sorokin nor Judge Boasberg believed that he was signing a meaningless order, and both judges demanded compliance that never came.
We’ve Officially Entered the Next Phase of Trump’s Dictatorship Era
Taken together, these actions and declarations amount to a significant escalation in Trump’s transformation of his own presidency into an autocracy.

Extraordinary moment — Nancy Pelosi issues a statement calling on Democratic senators to reject the House funding bill, i.e. to defy Chuck Schumer.
"Democratic senators should listen to the women," she says, referring to Murray/DeLauro who want a 1-month stopgap bill instead.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.
Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.
Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.
