When guilty of having royally cocked things up yourself, blame Biden. That’s the Trump MAGA way. #MAGA #republicans #gop #trump #spirit #gas #oil #iran #epstein #inflation #middleeast #war #news #politics #Midterms #republicansownthis

I may be out of line, but who’s actually running the country? There’s way too much stupidity and incompetence coming out of the White House to be coming from Trump alone. #MAGA #republicans #trump #incompetence #iran #war #Israel #middleeast #economy #epstein #news #politics #worldnews

After 34 years, Spirit Airlines has shut down and 17,000 employees are out of work because of Trump’s war in Iran. Trump, of course, is falsely blaming the Biden Administration for Spirit going out of business. Ironically, because of Trump’s war in Iran, skyrocketing jet fuel prices have grounded Spirit. #trump #spirit #iran #middleeast #war #oil #Israel #epstein #MAGA #republicans #News #worldnews

"The deadline has arrived and the executive branch’s answer is silence. ... Today is the day. The administration has no legal authority to continue this war under the statute as written. It plans to continue anyway." #Trump #Republicans #Iran #war #WarPowers #Congress /2

"Trump’s second Iran war becomes Illegal May 1. Contrary to claims by the New York Times, U.S. law doesn’t grant Trump authority to 'give himself an extension' on a war already illegal under international law. His Iran war becomes illegal on May 1." ~ Seth Abramson #Trump #Republicans #Iran #war #WarPowers #Congress /3 https://sethabramson.substack.com/p/trumps-second-iran-war-becomes-illegal

"For all the effort that Supreme Court justices put into insisting they are not 'partisan hacks,' when the Court resolves awful democracy cases, elected Republicans have remarkably little trouble understanding what they are supposed to do, and how quickly they are supposed to act." ~ Jay Willis #SupremeCourt #Callais #VotingRights #democracy #EconomicElites #corruption #Republicans /1 https://ballsandstrikes.substack.com/p/the-republican-justices-want-to-help

"The all-out sprint to make the 2026 maps at once redder and whiter lays bare the real project of the Callais majority: The Republican justices are trying to help their fellow Republicans win more elections in more places. Every seat counts." #SupremeCourt #Callais #VotingRights #democracy #EconomicElites #corruption #Republicans /2

"While the corrupt majority has consistently advanced and enforced an ideological vision of how the country should be run it has another, simpler brief: not allowing Democrats to govern when they are in power. When Republicans are in power, the powers of the presidency are almost limitless; when it’s Democrats, the office is enfeebled and hemmed in by a cobweb of invented doctrines." ~ Josh Marshall #SupremeCourt #Callais #VotingRights #corruption #Republicans /3 https://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/you-can-have-democratic-self-government-or-the-corrupt-court-not-both

"Each tool was built to achieve through the legal loopholes what could no longer be done openly. Callais is the modern version. The parallels to the Gilded Age are unmistakable." ~ Nadine Smith #SupremeCourt #Callais #VotingRights #democracy #EconomicElites #corruption #Republicans /4 https://www.contrariannews.org/p/the-supreme-courts-racist-rerun

"When the Voting Rights Act was passed, White people in the South, and the party they adopted as theirs, the Republican Party, set out to do everything in their power to dilute and destroy the Voting Rights Act. The right of Black people to vote removed White people’s power to discriminate, so they struck back." ~ Lucian K.

"Ultimately, the decision in Callais leaves me with a question: Why are conservatives so afraid of democracy? Why are they afraid to let the voters decide elections?" ~ Joyce Vance #SupremeCourt #Callais #VotingRights #democracy #EconomicElites #corruption #Republicans /6 https://joycevance.substack.com/p/what-the-court-did-in-callaisand

"The Voting Right Act of 1965, which removed the ability of governments to put in place facially neutral but clearly discriminatory practices, and in doing so ratcheted up Black registration in Louisiana until it matched White voters. This effect was immediate and enduring across the South. The VRA increased Black political representation." ~ Don Moynihan #SupremeCourt #Callais #VotingRights #democracy #EconomicElites #corruption #Republicans /7 https://donmoynihan.substack.com/p/power-democracy-and-clarity

"…which in turn increased Black economic power by opening up previously barred avenues, like public employment. ... What has been the impact of the Roberts Court on democracy? Wealthy people have more political power than everyone else. Partisan actors have more power to reduce voter choice." #SupremeCourt #Callais #VotingRights #democracy #EconomicElites #corruption #Republicans /8

"Black people and other minority groups are offered fewer protections and less visible political representation. ... We are living in an era of unprecedented concentration of wealth and power, an era of extraordinary democratic backsliding." #SupremeCourt #Callais #VotingRights #democracy #EconomicElites #corruption #Republicans /9

"Today is May 1. Under the War Powers Resolution of 1973, President Trump’s authority to continue military operations in Iran without congressional authorization expires today. As of 0600 EST this morning, the administration has filed nothing — no authorization request, no 30-day extension certification, no supplemental appropriations." ~ Rudy Martinez #Trump #Republicans #Iran #war #WarPowers #Congress /1 https://www.restoftheworldreport.com/p/the-rest-of-the-world-report-may

I wish lil Ms. Squinty was as upset about the rape of young girls by her husband and his buddy Jeffery Epstein as she was about Jimmy Kimmel’s satire. #KIMMEL #jimmykimmel #melaniatrump #trump #epstein #EpsteinFiles #republicans #MAGA #firstamendment #rape #freespeech #news #worldnews #media #politics

‘This isn’t what I voted for’ Oh, Hell yeah you did! You should have stopped playing Candy Crush and updating Facebook every 3 minutes and paid more attention to who you were voting for. The writing was on the wall the whole time. #MAGA #gop #republicans #democracy #politics #trump #scotus #dictatorship #constitution #epstein #EpsteinFiles #iran #middleeast #Israel #news #worldnews
