Today I got my first request for a family law attorney referral here, and I’m bone dry— do we have anybody who practices family law in northeastern Florida (Jacksonville area)?

No corporation is your friend, but it's pretty stark to watch all these corporate titans begging for Trump's favor and then Costco is out here just throwing down over and over again

Others that have already filed suit: Revlon, eyeglass maker EssilorLuxottica, Kawasaki, Bumble Bee, Yokohama Tire and many smaller firms.

I was diagnosed with #HIV in 1998, when I was 30.
Many of my friends had died of AIDS. I did not expect to live to 50.
I’m 58 now.
HIV treatment works.
Treatment also makes it impossible for me to pass HIV on during sex.
Ensure HIV treatment for all.
End HIV stigma.

Kelly is doing a great job of hitting their slow pitch down the middle
Mark Kelly: "We have a president who doesn't understand the Constitution, who installed an unqualified secretary of defense. I cannot think of a secretary of defense in the history of our country that is less qualified than Pete Hegseth. He should've been fired after Signal-gate."

That last sentence sure reads like Leavitt's brother is the one who tipped off ICE... 🤔
So the mother of Karoline Leavitt’s nephew was just picked up by ICE.
"A woman with a family connection to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has been arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Revere, Massachusetts."

Been thinking about this for a while. If this were a plot of a movie it would be laughed at as too farcical to be believable.
oh this is absolutely what i think. i think they feed him fake polls and outright AI slop
At this point, I wonder if he isn't lying when he says he has "my highest Poll Numbers, ever" since it's entirely possible that's what his aides are telling him. It's quite likely that there's an entire Potemkin village built around Trump right now.

DOJ's Harmeet Dhillon in a TV interview: My letter to Texas demanding that they do exactly this “is what triggered the Texas legislature and the Texas governor to call the legislature into session to put new maps together."
Can't tell whether we should believe this DOJ or that DOJ.

This is DOJ's defense👀
"the evidence clearly demonstrates that Texas was not doing DOJ’s supposed bidding—much less in a race conscious way—but instead was engaged in a race-blind partisan gerrymander that happened to affect the districts DOJ identified."

It is bad and evil to desire a majority white country. This should not be controversial. Ethnostates are bad. Racial purity is bullshit. There's no such thing as white culture because there's no such thing as the "white race" and white people aren't better at anything than anyone else.
