“The current Supreme Court is nothing more than another legislative filibuster, housed in the judicial branch, and crusted over with Harvard and Yale JDs to make it look pretty to the gullible.”
If you love American music, this is monumental. The clarity on this discovered test pressing reveals Johnson's genius to an even greater degree than the '61 re-release of his 29 songs. You can hear the stabbing slide and delicate fingering on every string. Amazing.
This is a war based on lies
Chuck Schumer's two votes tonight in favor of bombs and bulldozers to Israel is yet another reason Senate Democrats must vote to remove him as leader post the midterms.
Pope Leo XIV: Jesus told us, blessed are the peacemakers. But woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic, or political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth.
Two weeks ago The Free Press let a whiner publish 2000 words ab how I got his book review cEnsoReD. It was pure nonsense from the moment it went out—but I spent the next 14 days trying to get them to post an Editor’s Note and admit reality.
They won’t.

Another absolute gem from Jesse Welles.
TRUMP, throwing insults at Pope Leo:
“weak on crime”
“terrible for foreign policy”
“catering to the Radical Left”
“owes his position to me”
“sit down and mind your own business”
POPE LEO, unbothered:
“We are called to love.”
On April 15, at the direction of #SOUTHCOM commander Gen. Francis L. Donovan, Joint Task Force Southern Spear conducted a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel operated by Designated Terrorist Organizations. Intelligence confirmed the vessel was transiting along known narco-trafficking routes in the Eastern Pacific and was engaged in narco-trafficking operations. Three male narco-terrorists were killed during this action. No U.S. military forces were harmed. @DeptofWar #OpSouthernSpear
Despite the administration’s rhetoric and bogus legal theories, the supposed armed conflict with “narco-terrorists” appears to be entirely make believe.
Murder is the general term for premeditated killing outside of armed conflict.

Orbán's electoral crushing is a far greater achievement than most people outside Hungary realise.
He systemically consolidated power for 16 years, fixed the electoral map, abused govt power for political purposes & censored media.
The hurdles that Hungarians overcame for this moment were immense.
/8 Trump’s AI meme seems like a tawdry, exaggerated display of taking God’s name and image in vain to glorify Trump. It oozes empty sanctimony and self-aggrandizement. It’s obscenely profane to anyone who takes the commandment seriously. It genuinely offended this very lapsed Catholic.
To be fair, it's been an escalation. You portray yourself as the Pope, you're a megalomaniacal asshole utterly devoid of humility or proportion. You later portray yourself as Jesus Christ, well, it might be time to take pause and consider that you could have a bit of a problem.
This is how Bruce Springsteen opened his concert in Los Angeles last night. 🔥🔥

Iran posted this. What a humiliation for Trump.
When we take back power, I do not want unity or healing, I want revenge.
I also don't want a lecture on "but that's just like Trump, he wanted revenge." He was wrong, we are right. It's different. Get a moral compass.
Revenge or sit down. Call it "justice" if you must, it's that too.
Trump‘s increasing use of profanity is a symptom of dementia.
Speak Truth....
In a searing NYT essay, Claire Wilmot lays out how Jeffrey #Epstein’s leaked emails weaponized false rape panic and victim blaming to gut #MeToo, with pals like Steve Bannon and Woody Allen cheering him on.
Now any white man promoted has to be considered suspect because he may well have taken the place of a more qualified black or female officer personally removed from the promotion list by Hegseth.
The death of Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a Blind Rohingya refugee who was left on the freezing streets of Buffalo by Border Patrol officers, was ruled a homicide. New from me at @motherjones.com. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
First we need to fucking impeach Alito and Thomas, then expand the court to 13.
This is why the court must be reformed, with power of the current corrupt judges diluted by the addition of judges who respect the constitution along with other reforms. The extreme corruption of Robert’s court does not have to be accepted.
LAPD officers arrest a protester dressed as the Statue of Liberty outside a federal building during a ‘Kings Day’ protest. (Connor Sheets/Los Angeles Times)

This story is AWESOME.
This interview is a uniquely valuable perspective. Please watch.
If the estimates were right, there were about 9 million people at No Kings rallies today.
That would mean this protest was THIRTY TIMES AS LARGE AS THE TEA PARTY PROTEST which we were told, over and over again, was a massively important sign that US politics had shifted dramatically to the right
"The third No Kings protests were an unmistakable display of political force..."
"Two-thirds of participants live in suburban, small town or rural areas, a 40% increase over last time in protesters from outside big cities..."
