“He's been a terrible president, right?

He, first of all, he totally sabotaged the Supreme Court reform. And so we've had all these horrendous decisions that have basically gutted, you know, first of all, of course, abortion rights, affirmative action, the regulatory state. You know, it's the Democrats who are in charge, yet the Trump, Stephen Bannon wish list is being fulfilled under the Democrats and Biden sabotaged the Supreme Court reform.

What has he done in terms of policy? It's mainly giveaways to corporations. It's the Chips Act that's giving tens of billions of dollars to companies like Intel that then turn around and do stock buybacks and dividends, and they're totally mismanaged.”

if you are a borrower in an income-contingent repayment plan, Friday’s order appears to block the government from doing virtually anything to forgive your loan while the injunction remains in place.
The Eighth Circuit’s ruling was an expansion of a lower court’s preliminary injunction, which blocked the Education Department for forgiving loans under the SAVE program during litigation but denied other relief.

#SettlerColonialSCOTUSIsAntiLaborAndCorrupt: conservative court can easily conclude — no deference needed — that a conservative-led agency reached the “single, best meaning” of the law, as Roberts put it. The same conservative court can easily conclude progressive agency actions do not represent the “single, best meaning” of the law. With no real statute of limitations at play and no deference to the agency needed unless it has been specifically and appropriately — as decided by the judiciary — delegated to the agency, the court can do what it wants.

In an emergency motion filed Tuesday, the plaintiffs’ lawyers argued they were “ethically compelled” to ask Judge Ryan Nelson of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to recuse himself because the WJC trip was “explicitly designed to influence U.S. judicial opinion regarding the legality of ongoing Israeli military action against Palestinians.”

“We believe it is a misplaced view to think that today’s public safety laws must look like laws passed long ago,” Eddins, of the Hawaii high court, wrote. “Smoothbore, muzzle-loaded, and powder-and-ramrod muskets were not exactly useful to colonial era mass murderers. And life is a bit different now, in a nation with a lot more people, stretching to islands in the Pacific Ocean.”
Bruen “snubs federalism principles,” Eddins wrote, asserting that under Hawaii’s constitution, there is no individual right to carry a firearm in public.
