Excellent from @sykescharlie: "Over the next months as anti-anti-Trump commentators make their transition back to rationalization and appeasement, they will assure us the Senate will serve as a check on Trump’s excesses and predations."
TL; DR: It won't.

Red🩸states reject immigration reform that'd allow more immigrants willing to do the work with dignity. Instead, elected leaders insist on employing children💔, which is illegal in many cases. Will the DOL enforce the regulations?
The right-wing think tank set 30 policy priorities, including removing barriers to have 14- and 15-year-olds join the labor force.

A reminder that the Martinsville school district paid Paul Clement $100,000 — not big for him, but no small sum for a school district — to convince the justices to take the bathroom ban case and uphold their ban. With today’s SCOTUS orders, he failed. https://www.lawdork.com/p/supreme-court-indiana-trans-restroom-case

What about that time you said you got excluded from a kids’ beauty contest for being brown?
Or that time you said your dad was profiled at a market because of his turban?

To be fair, it is the GOP and "mainstream" media that are aiming to ban TikTok. I think it is a diversion so we won't talk about Facebook, Xhitter and YouTube where the real issues are.

MAGA GOP voters face a choice -
Cheney notes, “My view is I disagree with a lot of Joe Biden’s policies. We can survive bad policies. We cannot survive torching the Constitution.” https://wapo.st/3O12Bsr #Politics
@customer228 Great way to get out of jury duty, eh? @GottaLaff

@DemocracyMattersALot In a sense Haley is right. It's not that trump supporters are JUST racists. They are misogynists too!
Haley has related stories about how racism affected her and her immigrant family. She's conveniently "forgotten" about her own experiences.

60% of Iowa GOP caucus goers believe that the election was stolen from Trump. But y'all wanna say "Ban TikTok because disinformation?" 🤡
Y'all are not serious.
The real, dangerous disinformation, is coming from traditional media channels and places like Twitter, and it is in service of white nationalism, and its primary victims are Black people. But we don't want to talk about that. We just want to yell "Ban TikTok!"

Gaza tunnels stretch at least 350 miles, far longer than past estimate.
"Senior Israeli defense officials tell NY Times there are some 5,700 separate shafts leading to Hamas’s underground network under the Strip, which is only 140 square miles."

@dukepaaron @levjoy @floating @TonyStark They don't just want to destroy the only country where Jewish people are the majority, but erase it from history. And people don't believe antisemitism is a problem.

It has been determined already that Mr. Trump did sexually assault Ms. Carroll, that he knew when he made the statements about Ms. Carroll that the statements were false, that he made them with reckless disregard to whether they were true or false — US District Judge Lewis A.
