As someone who is going to be needing *lots* of care from nurses in the very near future, maybe it wasn't the best idea to insult all of them. But Donald is smart like that.

if you also didn't know about this, spend a few minutes with the story to learn about what is likely coming due to SCOTUS — being informed is very important to face what's next.
I, for one, have only really thought about the VRA through the prism of federal elections, not local elections.

But this well-reported piece reminds us that ending the VRA will have an impact on ALL levels of representative government.

Black Residents in West Tennessee Just Won Fairer Districts. Now Comes SCOTUS. - Bolts
The Supreme Court may further erode the Voting Rights Act in an upcoming decision. Beyond affecting Congress, that would reverberate across local governments nationwide.

The Texas gerrymandering case is a test of the Supreme Court's integrity
Do the justices have any rules they won't let Republicans break?

“Trump’s crackdown on immigration is being conducted in ways that maximize the economic costs. Trump’s cruel, chaotic campaign to deport undocumented immigrants is creating labor shortages that increase prices. It is part of the reason food prices are rising 3.1%.”

In Rhode Island, ICE arrested an intern who worked for a court, and then a judge intervened to say they had the wrong person.

All leading to a scene where ICE agents surrounded the judge's car and "threatening to smash in the windows if they did not comply." www.wfla.com/news/judge-i...

JB Pritzker: "They were telling troops follow the law. And who's responding negatively to that? The 34-time convicted felon in the White House.
When he attacks people it's because he knows what he's doing is wrong.

I have a daughter in her first year of a MSW program. She’s often told me I’m too political.

She’s triggered now. It’s not lost on her that, for the most part, these are degrees primarily pursued by women.

Republicans might have regrets about this decision.

ICE agents in Queens, New York break down a bedroom door and point guns at a mother & her four US citizen children

They dragged the mother out by her hair while yelling at the kids to “put your hands up, stupid!”

This is tyranny

These kids are traumatized

It was warrantless and no ID was shown.

Behind this important reversal is a member of the Coast Guard who saw what was happening and had the courage to leak it to the press. That person deserves serious praise.
