Voters may want more US factories—but they don't want to work in them President Donald Trump and his dim-witted commerce secretary have said that the goal of the absurd tariffs he's placed on nearly every imported good was to bring manufacturing jobs back to the ...

We conducted a poll to see if Americans really want to work in factories for the rest of their lives, which Howard Lutnick said is the administration's goal. Turns out, they don't! www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Catholic cardinals on Thursday elected a new pope—and it's not Donald Trump. Instead it's a Chicago man who has been critical of Trump and Vance on social media.

Now they're coming for judges who dare to enforce the law President Donald Trump on Tuesday said a federal judge who attempted to block his administration from deporting hundreds of immigrants to an El Salvadoran gulag should be impeached and removed. U.S.

DOJ is short staffed and has a rising workload. They just sent a signal that no one should grant them a courtesy filling extension because they use that extension as an opportunity to further injure the opposing party instead of working on their briefs.

Judge Orders Trump To Reinstate Thousands of Fired Employees At Six Agencies Trump’s terminations of probationary workers at the VA, the Interior Department and other agencies were “unlawful,” ruled U.S. District Judge William Alsup.

Not only did a federal judge just order Trump to *immediately* reinstate tens of thousands of fired federal employees across 6 agencies, calling their firings "unlawful" and a "sham."

The judge said he might also extend his order to cover more agencies. www.huffpost.com/entry/judge-...

Trump administration throws hundreds of affordable housing projects into limbo after contract cuts The Associated Press has found that the Trump administration has stalled at least $60 million in funding intended largely for affordable housing developments nationwide.

Last time I checked, canceling $60 million to build affordable housing developments wouldn’t actually make it easier for people to afford their rent.

Today Trump is targeting anti-Israel protesters. But next it will be anyone who dares speak out against him. If this doesn't terrify you, you clearly haven't studied history.

if you find yourself reluctant to support the guy at Columbia because you find some of the politics he espoused distasteful or even abhorrent, you should know that this is exactly the reaction that they hoped for in choosing him as a target for unlawful detention based on political speech.

I disagree with many of the anti-Israel protests, especially those that target Jewish spaces, but this is appalling. Deporting people based on their political beliefs is a horrifying slippery slope that will not end well. Jews should not be applauding this.

This is fascism at its core. Trump is making lawyers fear who they take on as clients. This is happening before Trump uses the DOJ and FBI to go after his enemies. At that point, wrongfully targeted people won't be able to get the best representation. I am terrified. www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

Amy is exactly right. And for any Jews who think a new era of rampant scapegoating will be good for the Jews (or for Israel for that matter), I don’t know what to tell you

“It’s a sad spectacle to see a law firm …rendering itself into an instrument for lawlessness. It’s also a cautionary example of how lawyers should not conduct themselves as the Trump regime proceeds with its effort to replace the nation’s justice system with one governed by cronyism and corruption.”

Venezuelan Migrant Sent to Guantánamo Bay Is ‘Not a Criminal,’ Family Pleads (Gift Article) Luis Alberto Castillo arrived in the United States so that he could “give everything to his son,” said his sister. Then, while scrolling on TikTok, she found out he was headed to Guantánamo.

We only know this man is in Gitmo because Noem tweeted a propaganda photo that included him and his sister saw it. He has no criminal record. He entered the US in January and immediately made an appointment with CBP to claim asylum. They sent him to a concentration camp bc of his basketball tattoo.
