Call it the liar's bonus. The only costs fascists pay for lying all the time is that the media feels compelled to repeat the lies for them, often in the headlines.

With millions in Africa forced from their homes by floods and erosion, advocates say the ruling is a major chance for the court to lead on durable solutions for climate survivors.

"actually, from a constitutional perspective, who won an election is unknowable"

The pro-death movement marching us to their Rapture that will never happen.
I heard somewhere that communicable diseases have weakened war-fighting capabilities of every nation's armed forces throughout history
You know who else famously used paid informants to infiltrate extremist groups?
The Justice Department.
No surprise that a person with known and shunned for his violent rhetoric would interpret counterterrorism as terror to counter terror. If that person isn't recognized for his planning ability prior to becoming a czar, why expect it now, as he secretly directs our terrorism against theirs?
Billie Little had worked for Thomson Reuters for about two decades. She was fired after questioning whether federal immigration agents unlawfully used their products. n.pr/3Ovl8k8
Rep. Analilia Mejia didn’t come to play.
She went back to the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871.
Then brought it straight to now.
“Stand up, defend, restore not only our democracy but also a just economy that actually works for working people.”

I noted the day of the SCOTUS decision that JB Pritzker IMMEDIATELY moved to make this point, by demanding a refund for IL. And State refunds may be the best way to politicize how Trump created the worst of all worlds. But Elizabeth Warren is, predictably, focused on it as well.
Chavez-DeRemer has stepped down so that her family can spend more time creeping on her former staffers.
You cannot hate ICE enough. “Ortega was summoned to the El Paso immigration office for an interview related to an application for a special program designed to offer deportation protections to military spouses or parents who are in the U.S. without legal status.“ www.cbsnews.com/news/ice-det...
On Thurs April 23, Paramount CEO David Ellison will host an invite-only dinner honoring Donald Trump at the closed United States Institute of Peace. A protest is planned outside at 5:30pm. Some members of Congress are expected. Please share widely.

The New York Times ran a detailed account of how Trump and Netanyahu launched the war on Iran. But it left out the paper's own role in paving the way for war--with what it wrote and when it kept silent.

I still think this is the single bleakest thing going on. Our military is on a civilian killing spree. They’re not declining these illegal orders. And no one is stopping this.
This has worked well for ICE--which can't fill its open positions and has lots of people flunking out of training--so I'm sure it'll turn out fine for the FBI and DOJ.
MAGA is learning that while they hate the state, they need state capacity to do the harms they want to do, and they've gutted that.
Tesla reported an estimated US federal tax bill of $0 for almost every year over two decades, despite hundreds of billions in US revenues. A Reuters analysis examines how it's done reut.rs/48wd21x
Maryland has, for now, stopped ICE from converting a warehouse designed to hold commercial products into a warehouse used to hold people.
Similar lawsuits have been filed against ICE's warehouse detention camp plans in New Jersey and Michigan.
Iran is considering attending peace talks with the United States in Pakistan, a senior Iranian official told Reuters, following moves by Islamabad to end a US blockade of Iran's ports, a major hurdle for Iran to rejoin peace efforts reut.rs/4sICdEY
This is why Unitary Executive Theory should be dunked on as academic theory. Practically, it depends on the President being a virtuous man. President Trump is craven. Theoretically, a civil system lessens the spoils because the bureaucrat is not subordinate to the will of one man.
This is a snapshot of the failure of MSM and the concomitant ignorance within the American electorate about what is happening in and to their country.
SCOOP --> Paramount, Meta, and X are refusing to say what happened to their huge contributions to Trump's presidential library after Sen Elizabeth Warren raised questions about its fund getting dissolved. Ds say tens of millions remain unaccounted for.
