Trump: "We have a fully negotiated deal with Iran. It only needs a signature."

Senator Mike Lee has introduced a last-minute amendment to the Wildfire Prevention Act that would eliminate the 2001 Roadless Rule, stripping protections from roughly 60 million acres of national forest land. This is an attempt to sneak a major public lands policy change through before most

President Donald Trump’s national redistricting war is far from over, but Democrats are ready to redraw congressional maps in seven more states ahead of the 2028 election, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said Tuesday. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Hakeem Jeffries: At least 7 blue states could redistrict by 2028
The solution, he said, will “require massive campaign finance reform, massive electoral reform, and yes, massive Supreme Court reform, as well.”

If VA dems actually go through with this it would be one of the most hilariously based things statewide Dems have done anywhere since the infamous Evers veto in Wisconsin a few years ago
We don't ordinarily publish posts at [checks watch] 8:51 PM on a Friday night, but state constitutional law expert Quinn @yeargain.bsky.social has an outside-the-box idea for reversing the VA Supreme Court that is very much worth taking seriously:

Dems can simply lower the retirement age.
How Virginia Democrats can overturn the redistricting ruling: Retire the Supreme Court
The state Constitution gives lawmakers complete latitude to set the judicial retirement age. They should use it.

The Virginia Supreme Court ruled 4-3 today to throw out a redistricting referendum that Virginia voters had actually approved last month (52% to 48%) which would have redrawn congressional maps to give Democrats up to four additional seats.

If journalists had any integrity and courage, they would boycott the White House Correspondents Dinner. It should be as empty as a TPUSA event.

How is that not contempt of court? _Flagrant_ contempt of court, is what that is.
FOIA CASE UPDATE: So Judge Boasberg ordered the government to search DOGE records for Musk’s private phone number. The DoJ just responded with their results. Did they basically just search for messages that contain “Musk phone”? lol do I have that right @nationalsecuritylaw.org?

Trump's gespacho is just as thin skinned as Trump. Who'da thunk it.

Imagiine RAIDING children you already have in prison, for speaking freely.

Sorry, but that's the smallest of dick-energies, like, ever.
BREAKING: After ProPublica published letters written by children at the Dilley concentration camp, ICE officers raided the dormitories and confiscated the children's letters. I'm suing ICE to get them back. I'll explain it all in 45 minutes on @meidastouch.com here: www.youtube.com/live/H-D8SzR...

The difference is all about aspirations, clearely.

Jan 6ers DREAM was to violently dominate ANYONE .... even US Capitol police ffs (?!),... to become 'heros.'

No Kings is pretty evidently about the dream, expressed in the preable of the CotUS...

"In order to create a more perfect union."
8 Million protesters yesterday at #NoKings.

No police beaten with flag poles.
No fire extinguishers thrown at other humans.
No vandalism or theft.
No racist flags.
No zip ties.
No death threats.
No pipe bombs.
No poop smeared on walls.

That's what happens when mature, civilized people protest.

That millions of people at #NoKings yesterday isn't today's New York Times' headline is shameful. That the only mention is way down the page, doesn't mention the number of protesters, but does talk about Pro-Trump counter-protesters, like that was a factor, seems intentional. Don't trust the NYT.

At our No Kings rally yesterday, I photographed a man holding this sign with an amazing artist's rendition of Alex Pretti.

This is why we fight Traitor Trump's masked domestic terrorists.

Nobody has been held accountable for his murder. This injustice cannot continue. Resist with all you have.

Reminder: Elinor Roosevelt scandalized America too,... by hoping into a war plane & taking a ride at 56 to help get the Red Tails off the sidelines & in the fight. Bad-ass recognizes bad-ass. Always thought the Washington football club missed an opp to rename as the Redtails, but what do I know.
