Yeah JD, we remember. We will never forget your boss was best friends with the guy who ran a literal child sex trafficking ring.

On Trump’s order, Greg Abbott and Texas Republicans are hijacking a special session that should be focused on flood victims so they can ram through a gerrymandering scheme.
This is a clear political ploy to hold Congress in 2026.
Let’s kick these cowards out in the midterms.

You don't really see exclamation points in judicial opinions like this, but the Judge in our case trying to force the Admin to follow the law made his opinion of their behavior clear:
"Defendants are therefore required to stop violating the law!"

Look, if you believe in kings, then let’s be honest—you can’t call yourself a patriot. You just can’t. You don’t get to wrap yourself in the flag of a country that was quite literally founded on rejecting a monarchy while, at the same time, wishing for one. That’s not how this works.
