For no particular reason, just a reminder that an Executive Order (EO) does not have the force of law or regulation. It is a preferred policy directive offered by the President that only applies to the departments & agencies within the Executive Branch. Nothing more; nothing less.

Trump is losing to Iran. He's failing to curb inflation. He's failing to bring back factory jobs. He isn't boosting economic growth. He's empowering Russia and China. He's world-historically unpopular.
But he can scribble "Lake America" with a big crayon on a map.
Is that MAGA's consolation prize?

Holy shit — the purpose of this Trump event is to announce that he’s changing the name of Lake Ontario to “Lake America.” It will be interesting to see which if any institutions and companies go along with this

So, SCOTUS says courts can’t do anything because no one is harmed by a threat to end democracy. They have to wait until Trump ends democracy, at which point it will be too late for SCOTUS to do anything about it.
What a bunch of complicit fucking cowards.

President Donald Trump, who has spread falsehoods about voting by mail as he seeks to reduce it, cast such a ballot himself in the most recent Florida primary. (via @politifact.bsky.social)

Trump cast a mail ballot in Florida's primary despite spreading falsehoods about mail voting fraud
Each election, tens of millions of Americans vote by mail, and evidence from court records and studies shows only a tiny fraction of those ballots are fraudulent.

Political influence campaigns tend to use visceral soundbites and repetitive terms to stoke rage, fear, or anxiety.
Here is an example of commonly deployed themes being bundled illogically to form a propaganda soup.
