In a bit of rare good news, SCOTUS, in a 5-4 decision, in effect supported a lower-court finding that required the government to pay $2bn in contractor payments from the Elno-crippled USAID...although the money involved was rather trivial compared to the tens of billions already subjected to court filings, the fact that CJ Roberts and J Coney Barrett joined the three-judge lib minority *may* augur a less-than wholehearted approval of Executive Branch trashing of heretofore Congress' constitutional areas of responsibility.
tRump may want to review his last-night's effusive "thank you" to Roberts if like decisions continue as all the lawsuits challenging "DOGE" wreckage of the Administrative State work their way up to SCOTUS. BTW, the four Court reactionaries sent out blistering dissents, and are having a massive sad over the majority's ruling.
4 corrupt Justices (other than Roberts) make it clear that there are no boundaries for Trumps behavior. Roberts will surely join them when he can but right now he’s trying to avoid being the Roger Brook Taney of the 21st century (and not succeeding). These are 9-0 decisions in a sane judicial landscape. We shouldn’t be holding our breath here.
Condolences to David for today’s post. It’s a greater amount of insanity than any sane person should have to wade through.
A very minor criticism tho’. David references Trump as a mob boss. Trump is and always has been (among other things) a mob boss for all intents and purposes.

I bet Chief Justice Roberts is
thrilled with the video and
audio of scum Trump
thanking him and telling him
he won't forget it. Yes, just
what you didn't ask for
Roberts, high priced egg all
over your bought and paid for
face.
Withdrawal of intelligence
from Ukraine makes me think
Starlink will no longer be of
help. Yes! Let's stab Ukraine
in the back some more.🤬

Outwardly corrupt by any measure.

I favor "capo di tutti i capi", as tRump has styled himself as an orange-faced John Gotti.
The American people will not forget either
I bet Macron really loves AUKUS now lol
