Chris Hayes was all "Am I crazy, or..." last night and he was assured by his guests he was not.
Of course, Chris was just pointing out the truth, his guests were a bit more violent.
How do you love Trump claiming he's the nation's chief law enforcement officer? And the massively "seen through" distraction of searching Bolton's house? As Chris said, it's case of Trump saying "I'm rubber, you're glue," which of course is fourth grade playground stuff.
Obvious to all, no doubt, but this judge was smart enough to agree with the environmental issue rather than writing in her decision, "I'm closing this atrocity because Trump and Co. are assholes, pure and simple." Not to mention the cleverness of the group that brought the suit. Stand by for the appeal.
Gorsuch has a soft spot for indigenous rights, so getting the local indigenous people into the action was a brilliant move. Not that they would have been reluctant.
Itβs not true. Heβs happily voted against Apache Stronghold/Oak Flats twice, in favor of Rio Tinto making a crater if it. Injunctive relief now, for the third time, but when it gets to SC heβll vote against the indigenous folks again. That was a whitewash, to make some part of him seem human.
OT, but with a whole new Supreme Court (and court system) coming in on 1 September here in Mexico, nobody is taking any chances... shamans are going to cleanse the chamber the morning before the first court session (the incoming chief justice is a Oaxacan Mixe). I can't imagine how many shamans, priests, imans, rabbis, gurus you'd need to cleanse yours.
Ta, Gary. At every protest of this maladministration I want to see the crowds chanting "Epstein. EPstein! EPSTEIN!!" the way "Goldberg!" was the ultimate epithet during the Two Minutes' Hate.
Around here, those white gumboots are called "Chicken Boots" because they are worn by chicken processing plant workers. Would also seem appropriate for any boots worn by DeSantis and other Trump lackeys
Like most people, I've been fired before. Sometimes for cause, sometimes for bullshit, but always by someone who was legitimate. If I was a general being fired by that fucking worm, I'd be really stabby over it.
I was just reading a different view of Vikings that many of these fascists like to identify with. Vikings were driven by greed first and foremost. Vikings didnβt want to work their farms, they had children and slaves to do this. Most enlightening is that Vikings were not brave warriors. They attacked, killed and enslaved monks, and other unarmed civilians and then stole what they could. They did decide to raid places that were protected but history writes theyβd run away when they met up with well armed people. They sound like a bunch of stupid brutes, just like Trump and his ilk.
Vikings were actually rather progressive in the area of women's rights. Viking women enjoyed a degree of freedom and autonomy that was unusual for their time. While not fully equal to men, they possessed legal rights and social influence to a much higher degree than was found in Judeo-Christian society. Viking women could own property, initiate a divorce, and hold leadership positions. Heathens!!

Not to worry people. As Alligator Alcatraz is getting shut down Florida is set to open "The Deport Depot," another camp in the American Gulag system being built out, complete with a cute name and merch -- until the state New GOP was forced to halt sales and take down the web page rather than have to fight a copywrite infringement lawsuit:

Like tourists, the ICEholes need souvenirs to help reminiscing about the good ol' days when Brown-skinned people could be rounded up and abused with full gubmint approval. Hell, the most abusive ones are probably on a short list for the Presidential Medal of Freedom from the Fulvous Fuckwad.

Time to go.

It's a concentration camp. One of the least lovely but most popular inventions of the British Empire.
It should never be called Alligator Alcatraz, which minimizes its horror. DeSantis Camp 1 will do.
We can reopen it for trump's people later. "Set and Forget"
This is when you wonder whether Carl Hiassen's novels are actually nonfiction.
The environmental reasons alone...but silly me, the Supreme Court won't care. We know their job is to help and support this dictatorship.
Yeah, we know already how well Republicans do with "compliance" and "law".

The Holy Hand Grenade might do it.
We're using snake handlers now.

They're called shrimp boots in Louisiana.

Still not getting rid of my purple Vikings gear, tho.

TBF no one in 900 was very enlightened. technically no one was enlightened until...
the enlightenment.
When I look for the Vikings' contribution to the human race I draw a blank
Not even ONE Super Bowl win.

1. Is that like coleslaw?
2. Had it when I was a kid, they gave me pills.
3. Sounds like porn.
Daneslaw: coleslaw but hygge

Sales of the items, which had a "Deport Depot" logo and were still available for purchase as of Saturday afternoon, counted as political contributions, the Miami Herald reported. The merchandise and a post about it on X were removed hours later, the outlet reported." https://www.fox13news.com/news/florida-gop-pulls-immigration-merchandise-after-home-depot-pushback

And predictably the DeSantis Regime has filed an emergency appeal in the 11th Circuit, one of THE most Conservative circuits in America.
Probably the complaint is going to resemble the drool-screaming mimicked mercilessly accurately in the next comment
