  1. Federal prosecutors are under fire after critics accuse them of smearing man killed by #ICE in Houston - Trump’s gestapo is backed up by his team of federal prosecutors, who are actively interfering by slandering victims. This is not in the interest of justice being served. To review, #Trump has stacked #SCOTUS with conservative lackeys, he’s fired career federal prosecutors and replaced them with right-wing loyalists; and through crazy Kash Patel, he’s molding the #FBI into his private revenge investigators. Make no mistake, he’s remaking the federal government to accommodate his vision of a #fascist autocracy. cnn.com/2026/07/19/us/houston- #legal #immigration #TrumpRegime #Republicans

  3. CW: uspol USA politics

    This is what the extreme rightist rulings of the US Supreme Court have done: we now have a state Supreme Court explicitly rejecting the SCOTUS's logic and rulings as incompatible with the state's constitution. This is, sadly, what we need in the United States right now - for good and honest people to say enough is enough and simply refuse to follow the extreme right on it's destructive path anymore.

    In an opinion handed down Wednesday, the justice once again refused to import SCOTUS’s “results-driven approach to due process” into state law. He explained that the Hawaiʻi Constitution “takes no instruction” from “hubristic originalists” who are “driven by agenda and intent on swiping power that belongs to the people.” A Supreme Court “that systematically dismantles democratic safeguards, steamrolls constitutional liberties, and tramples human dignity,” he concluded, “does not chart the course for the Hawaiʻi Constitution.”

  5. Last week, Supreme Court Justices Elena Kagan and Amy Coney Barrett testified before the Senate because they were seeking the funds for additional #security for the nine members of this Court. Now each Justice has from 4 to 8 security staff. They want this increased to 12 agents each. Sen. Chris Van Hollen wisely spoke of two concerns that he has: lack of ethics at the Court and the overuse of the secretive #ShadowDocket.

  9. Since the Trump admin insists using power it has for purposes that power was clearly not intended for, I think states currently being extorted by the administration should start filing racketeering indictments.

    Sure, that may be unconstitutional or "not how things work", but that doesn't ever stop the Trump admin, and maybe those not granted #SCOTUS immunity might rethink what they are willing to for those who are allowed to crime as part of their day job perks.

  14. #MissKittyPolitics because #trans rights are #human #rights.
    The court can say whatever it wants to say. They have demonstrated that the #Constitution wasn't there to protect us, at least not anymore. They're ruling holds no credibility but oh so much weight. #Impeach and #imprison #SCOTUS.

  16. #BigPharma has never been our friend.

    There really are good reasons to cut companies and their products from your shopping list.

    I saw this on my Instagram feed shared by account dr.sarah.carnes

    disclaimer: I did not research to confirm these claims. I believe it's unnecessary.

    No funds for #SCOTUS security until they rule that #ICE is an illegal institution and shut it down. Because they're not protecting the #People they do not deserve any protection. 🔦🎤💃🏻

  21. Friday, #Trump’s attys asked a federal appeals court to intervene & stay, or stop the disbursement of damages, until #SCOTUS decides whether to reconsider [even though they already declined the appeal]. His attys asked the appeals court to issue an injunction if the funds were disbursed & order the transfer of funds back to the court-controlled account while the appeal plays out.

  33. #SCOTUS upheld this interpretation in 1995, ruling against property owners who argued that #harm should only mean directly killing or injuring an #endangered #animal.

    But on Friday, the #Trump #Interior Dept & the #Commerce Dept announced a final rule that rescinded this longstanding interpretation. Under the rule, destroying an #EndangeredSpecies’ nest or #habitat would no longer be considered illegal.
