Lawsuits and marches are as effective as thoughts and prayers against this regime.

Only the best for this administration. Kristi Noem is not having the best week. The Secretary of Homeland Security drew scrutiny on Tuesday when she could not define “habeas corpus.” Then on Thursday she used her official government X account to repost a lawsuit against her department that was voluntarily dismissed and wrote “Suck It.” “You’re 53 years old,” Josh Larky wrote. “Please take this down.” “Suck what, Madam Secretary?” James Lindsay responded. “I support the Trump Administration and think y’all are doing a good job,” another person wrote. “But this post? Really? It’s embarrassing.” https://www.pennlive.com/news/2025/05/kristi-noem-roasted-for-post-on-government-account-what-an-embarrassment-to-this-country.html

I follow HCR via her substack to my email, and also in my FB feed. And on Bluesky, too. I’ll always see her somewhere!

Oopsie!

I didn't think it was his idea. American presidents have less power than many think.

It should be eliminated.

@AdagioM I remember you talking about Sonata! Ok so maybe not too obscure

Probably commas, INCORRECTLY!

That thing about a village…

@wtg you are brilliant

Differences between President Trump and South African President Cyril Ramaphosa came to a head Wednesday afternoon in an Oval Office meeting, as they clashed over whether White genocide is taking place in South Africa. Mr. Trump and Rampahosa are meeting, with South African-born billionaire Elon Musk in the room, for a critical conversation amid tensions between the U.S. and South Africa, after the U.S. accepted 59 White Afrikaners last week and granted them status as refugees. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-musk-south-africa-president-meeting-tense-relations/

The Trump administration said it will roll back Biden-era police reform efforts in cities where there has been controversy over high-profile police killings and brutality. The US justice department said on Wednesday it will be dismissing oversight agreements reached with the police departments in Louisville, Kentucky and Minneapolis, Minnesota. It will also be scrapping investigations into police constitutional violations in six other cities, including Phoenix and Memphis. The Biden-era justice department reached accountability agreements with both the Louisville and Minneapolis police departments, but they were not formally enacted. They included measures like enhanced training, accountability, and improved data collection of police activity. The Trump administration said those findings relied on "flawed methodologies and incomplete data". The move comes amid a large upheaval of the justice department's civil rights division since Trump's re-election. Around 70% of the department's lawyers have quit, according to current and former officials who spoke to NPR, over concerns of its changing priorities under the new Trump administration. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c8e663n8glgo
