Hung Cao—who compared abortion to the Holocaust on the campaign trail and claimed combat injuries with no documentation—just became Acting Secretary of the Navy. This is what the collapse of institutional standards looks like in real time.

Reporter: What do you make of Republicans saying that Virginia—
AOC: Wah wah wah.
We have asked Republicans for 10 years to ban partisan gerrymandering. And for 10 years, Republicans have said no.
What they’re just mad at is that they have been accustomed to a Democratic Party that rolls over.
Well that’s TPUSA’s fault for holding an event in a deep blue city like…wait, Waco?!
NEWS — DHS wants a detention system bigger than all of federal prisons combined.
A nationwide rapid-response network just launched with two words:
“GTFO, ICE.”

GOP Rep. Tom Kean Jr. represents New Jersey’s most competitive district this November — but nobody, even his GOP colleagues, can say where he’s been for the past month.
Kean’s team says he’s facing unspecified health issues. He hasn’t voted since March 5th and has missed almost 50 roll call votes.

Voters said YES in VA, yet a judge is temporarily striking down VA’s redistricting referendum.
AG Jay Jones said that an activist judge should not have veto power over the People’s vote and plans to file an appeal.

By 1890, Oklahoma had been subdivided into white-settled areas (west of the red line) and Indian Territory (east of the red line), as shown on this map created by the U.S. Census Bureau. Image credit: Library of Congress.
The Indian Removal Act of 1830 established “Indian Territory” as a permanent home for Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Creek and Seminole who were forcibly removed from eastern states. The federal government organized the Land Run, allowing white settlers to claim land within the designated area. /2
PLEASE STOP REPORTING RFK HAS CHANGED HIS TUNE ON VACCINES WITH NO EVIDENCE TO BACK THAT UP THE SAME DAY HE REPEATEDLY LIED ABOUT HIS ROLE IN THE ANTI-VAX MOVEMENT.

John Cornyn has been in office longer than I’ve been alive.
He’s had 40 years to lower the cost of housing, healthcare, groceries, utilities, and gas.
What’s the hold up?
Donald Trump is having a “private dinner” at the United States Institute of Peace.
Beyond parody.
Great.
The Guardian: Nearly half of US children are breathing dangerous levels of air pollution, per an American Lung Association report, amid Trump EPA’s expansive rollback of environmental protections.

Keep your heads up @splcunion.bsky.social. Thank you for your important work.
What do you think this photo represents? Important men and their female support staff? A photo to celebrate some great accomplishment by Trump and the men in the photo?
Nope. This is a photo of the Georgia Bulldogs National Championship Women Tennis Team
What a fucking insult to these women

Hegseth’s warrior cosplay is missing a history book. From Washington mandating smallpox inoculations to save the Revolution, to Napoleon’s Grand Armée falling to typhus, real generals know germs kill more soldiers than guns. Guess readiness is an afterthought
lmao
From what I can tell, this invitation to speak was revoked at the behest of billionaire-funded TPUSA and GOP Senator Mike Lee, NOT because there was a groundswell of authentic, grassroots opposition from the student body.
"The murder that was horrific and should never have happened does not magically erase what was said or done," Ms. McMahon said. "But if you were a Charlie Kirk fan, you might not realize why there is so much backlash to posts eulogizing his death." The resurfaced posts angered conservative commentators and Republican lawmakers, who rushed to defend Mr. Kirk and urged others to tell the university they felt the same. Senator Mike Lee of Utah led a campaign over several days on X to pressure the university to revoke the invitation. "Raise your hand if you'd like @UVU to reconsider inviting Ms. McMahon," he wrote in one post.
McMahon's intention in sharing Charlie Kirk's own words a few days after his death, was to explain to her audience why it is that Kirk was such a polarizing figure. The answer is, because he intended to be a polarizing figure. And for telling that truth, Kirk's organization has now cancelled her.
College Where Charlie Kirk Was Killed Revokes Graduation Speaker's Invite Utah Valley University was thrilled that Sharon McMahon, a best-selling author, would speak at its graduation. And then her old posts resurfaced. Listen • 5:02 min
You'll never believe what this speaker--now cancelled thanks to "free speech" warriors like TPUSA & Sen. Mike Lee--posted about Charlie Kirk.
She said she was "gutted" by his murder. She described it as "horrific" and said it "should have never happened." And then she went on to post Kirk's words.
Ummm…no.
NEW: Last night, Virginia Democrats celebrated the approval of a referendum that could flip up to four House seats blue.
Still, with three lawsuits against the referendum pending, the fate of Virginia’s redistricting won’t be settled until the state Supreme Court issues a final decision.
RFK Jr: "President Trump has a different way of calculating percentages. If you have a $600 drug and you reduce it to $10, that's a 600% reduction."
It is completely unacceptable for a POTUS to speak this way about a Supreme Court Justice. I want journalists outside John Roberts' house, demanding he respond to this racist slur, and asking every Congress person to weigh in.
“The most corrupt Supreme Court justice in history,Thomas, who’s taken millions from billionaires and then voted to promote their interests, inadvertently helped us all see clearly the source of this depravity that’s permeated so much of our government at all levels”

Just the two SCOTUS rulings today. Still no word on redistricting or other closely-watched cases.
SCOTUS is using the shadow docket to undermine the Constitution and protect this GOP criminal pedophile regime.
It's a "one box" day at #SCOTUS, meaning we're expecting 1-2 rulings in argued cases starting at 10:00 ET.
First (but *not* last) ruling from #SCOTUS is in Enbridge Energy v. Nessel.
For a unanimous Court, Justice Sotomayor holds that there's no equitable tolling of the deadline for removing certain cases from state court to federal court, and so the removal here was untimely:
SCOTUS REFORM
SCOTUS is corrupt
No life time appointments. Term limits for all government positions.
Increase the number of SCOTUS positions
