Mueller, She Wrote @muellershewrote.com · 8h

The 9th circuit ruled the opposite. That the president’s power is not plenary, and that it’s subject to judicial review. I wonder why they gave him a do-over. Didn’t Trump sue over an edited Harris video?

WTF @cnn.com ?

Christopher Webb @cwebbonline.com · 8h

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.

at least three people I know who recently traveled abroad on holiday told me they felt they could finally breathe once they left the states. They felt safe walking at night and didn’t worry about the government knocking on their door. Their destinations were non democratic countries.

If you see Miller just scream “Plenary”. It I guess breaks him.

Idk why they do it at night.

Air raid sirens are no longer funny, yet my town still sets them off at night every week just to annoy us. But now they’re scary.

Courtney Lee Designs @courtneyleedesigns.com · 20h

Ireland declaring a permanent universal basic income for artists is the validation creators need — how VITAL our work is. The monetary, cultural, & intrinsic value of art is palpable. THIS is reputable proof of that. How much better would societies run if EVERYONE had a UBI?! It’d be life-changing.

CW: protester being struck in the head by a pepper ball

Footage I took earlier of the moment Reverend David Black, a regular protester outside of the Broadview Detention Center, was shot in the head with a pepper ball by ICE agents on the roof of the facility.

Do you think the ICE agents brag at night about shooting a priest in the head then still think they’re the good guys?
