🇺🇸BREAKING: The Supreme Court just rejected 9-0 Louisiana’s bid to reconsider their racial gerrymandering ruling.

Nine justices. Zero dissents.

Louisiana cancelled an ongoing election to redraw those maps.

People had already voted.

The court didn’t budge.

Never stop connecting the dots.

A man spends 50 years teaching at MIT.

He knows his time is running out.

So he records one last lecture — everything he knows, distilled into a single hour.

He died 5 months later.

This is that lecture.

The most important hour you'll watch this week. 👇

Since we passed the Affordable Care Act, Republicans have tried over and over to repeal it. And over and over, they’ve failed — in part because millions of people now depend on the ACA for quality, affordable health care.

Now Republicans are trying something different: quietly weakening the law and hoping you won’t notice. We can’t let them.

Donald Trump delayed deploying the National Guard on January 6th when our Capitol was under violent attack and lives were at stake.

Now, he’s activating the DC Guard to distract from his incompetent mishandling of tariffs, health care, education and immigration — just to name a few blunders.

BREAKING: A federal judge slams Donald Trump with a major defeat by ruling that his administration broke federal law by removing a public website that showed how federal funding is divided amongst different agencies — and orders that it be reinstated.

The courts are our last line of defense once again...

"There is nothing unconstitutional about Congress requiring the Executive Branch to inform the public of how it is apportioning the public’s money. Defendants are therefore required to stop violating the law!" U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan wrote in his ruling.

Sullivan stated that the online database, which was overseen by the MAGA-controlled office of Management and Budget, could not just be unilaterally terminated because Congressional legislation demands that the OMB make all apportionment decisions publicly available within two business days.

According to Congress, the OMB must "operate and maintain” the system for “fiscal year 2023 and each fiscal year thereafter." The Trump administration killed the website earlier this year as part of the broader MAGA agenda to gut the federal government and eliminate its crucial services, absurdly citing national security concerns.

“When Defendants removed the Public Apportionments Database, they deprived CREW and Protect Democracy of information to which they are statutorily entitled, and which they relied on to monitor government funding, respond to possible legal violations, and provide transparency to the public,” wrote Sullivan.

Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) and Protect Democracy helped bring the lawsuit against the administration.

"Today’s decision makes clear that the executive branch cannot simply ignore appropriations laws they disagree with on policy grounds, no matter what President Trump or OMB Director Russell Vought thinks,” stated Cerin Lindgrensavage, counsel at Protect Democracy.

"Congress passed a law making sure the American public could see how their taxpayer dollars are being spent, and we will continue to hold the administration accountable for making good on that promise," she added.

Judge Sullivan has given the Justice Department until Thursday morning to formulate a response in case they want to appeal the ruling.

Please retweet and ❤️ to thank the judge!

Breaking: Well, we're finally here

Trump has jumped the shark and just posted that Biden was "executed" and "cloned" in 2020

The 25th Amendment would seem to be mandatory

Sunday shows: ask GOP guests if they think Biden was cloned and executed🤦🏼‍♂️

Holy moly. Check out this tweet from the new American pope. I’m sure MAGA would hate it if you reposted this right this minute.

It's crazy to me that the guy who nicknamed President Biden "Sleepy Joe" is the one caught asleep in courtrooms and funerals while Joe's been wide awake.
