Todd Blanche has no idea the can of worms he just opened. I’m not a lawyer, but I was a paralegal… and a plaintiff.
For those who have or want to commit terrorist crimes on U.S. soil, they now have pro *U.S. Department of Justice* cases to cite for their defense.
And freedom.
Campaign finance reform, including overturning Citizens United, must outlaw this kind of deceptive behavior.
If I had my way, we would restrict political spending to parties and candidates only.
I say this all day every day and many people really do not like listening to me because they think it is Just Too Precious And Idealistic but here it is, the validation of all I believe to be true.
1) Where are all the people that agree
2) How do we find each other and be friends and raise hell?
Some lessons here:
*State courts matter.
*State constitutions matter.
*Whether a particular state is viewed as "red" or "blue" does not always matter!

This happened in WWII when we were genuinely fighting for our lives.
The only reason for a fascist regime like MAGA/GOP's to do this is to have a perpetual state of war to consolidate entrenched power, avoid accountability for their crimes and make lots of money

it gets lost in the shuffle of constant corruption and bloodshed but even with the memecoin ALONE, that would make him very clearly the most corrupt U.S. president in history, you could easily argue
As a result of our lawsuit, guards at "Alligator Alcatraz" are required to allow people detained at the facility to call their lawyers, in accordance with the Constitution.
Yet when our clients asserted their right to access phones, guards brutally beat them. ICE must be held accountable.
Reminder:
That’s 23 trump orbit attorneys so far who have gotten disbarred, sanctioned, penalized, or under investigation. How any current trump attorney would ever stay with this criminal is beyond logical.
WOOHOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We were at the end of his street daily for over 13 mos, demanding justice. Going out there again this afternoon!!
Bar associations have done more for accountability than the DOJ.
Eastman’s disbarment was immediately condemned by other Trump 2020 allies like Sidney Powell and Jeff Clark.
But one of the key witnesses against Eastman at his bar trial hailed the ruling as “a just end to a story of injustice.” www.politico.com/news/2026/04...
NEW: Eastman helped devise the strategy to pressure Mike Pence to halt Joe Biden’s Electoral College victory — and he memorably fought with Pence’s aides even as the Capitol was in lockdown on Jan. 6.

JUST IN: John Eastman, the conservative attorney who helped devise President Trump's last ditch strategy to overturn the 2020 presidential election, has officially been disbarred, per the California Supreme Court:
About damn time!

This village uses its solar income on free communal lunches, buses and other communal efforts.“If you divide money as individual income, people feel disconnected. People who didn’t know each other for years now get to know each other within days”
I love everything about this.
Maybe this makes me a communist, but I think they should have to file these reports before the election, not after.
Hailey is an incredible person whose resilience and creativity keep blowing me away. She keeps making amazing culture and fighting for trans feminism in Brazil.
Her mom has cancer and it's taking up all her time and energy. Can you help her make rent please? <3
The Trump Admin has abruptly canceled an $11M contract with Catholic Charities to shelter and care for migrant children who enter the U.S. alone, ending a relationship between the Catholic Church and the U.S. government dating back to the first arrivals of Cuban exiles in South Florida.
Transgender discrimination is, by its very nature, sex discrimination. Discrimination based on sex is expressly prohibited under Montana’s unique Nondiscrimination Clause––“[n]either the state nor any person, firm, corporation, or institution shall discriminate on account of . . . sex . . . .” Thus, Article II, Section 4 is unequivocal in its intolerance for discrimination based on sex. Because sex discrimination involves a fundamental right under Article II, the appropriate level of judicial review is strict scrutiny. Snetsinger, ¶ 17. ¶28 Being transgender is also a suspect class under the Equal Protection Clause of Article II, Section 4,––“[n]o person shall be denied equal protection of the law.”
MONTANA SUPREME COURT: “Transgender discrimination is, by its very nature, sex discrimination,” and is subject to strict scrutiny under the Montana Constitution.

"But my first piece of advice on theodicy has always been to avoid theodicy.…we don’t justify this evil or that evil as part of some grand plan, but rather see the world as a place in need of rescue from a catastrophe."

This article is even dumber than I expected. It... blames AI and social media for making kids not protest Trump (they are, actually). The evidence? Nonsense claims from... Jonathan Haidt about the internet cooking the brains of young people.
If the last year and a half has taught me anything it's how much harder having to deal with someone else's bullshit makes your own life!
