For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.

Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only

▪️ Title must match the article headline

▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)

▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners

Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.

Rule 3: Articles based on opinion (unless clearly marked and from a serious publication-No Fox News or equal), misinformation or propaganda will be removed.

Rule 4: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.

Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

Rule 7. No conjecture type posts (this could, might, may, etc.). Only factual. If the headline is wrong, clarify within the body.

Raises a very important issue: so many high profile cases at once is completely swamping the system. This Biden judge was pissed because it was the 6th case they had to deal with that day. Part of the master plan I guess.

Overwhelming the system is absolutely part of the plan. It's also part of the plan to have lawsuits filed against them so that they can eventually be appealed to the corrupt Supreme Court. It's all in Project 2025.

"Ho hum drug dealer money laundering trying to murder democracy embezzlement, how will I get to all this stuff? Okay, I'll throw it in the scheduler and just take things one at a time."

"Jeez Louise, now all kinds of stuff is coming in. And now there's something about a camp, that they're saying they should have access to, because they're putting all the Democrats in there? I'm sure looking forward to having Friday off. This is way too much."

The judicial theater continues its circus act, with a Biden-appointed judge slamming the brakes on reinstating Trump’s ousted watchdogs. Ana Reyes, in her infinite patience, roasted the plaintiffs’ legal team for fumbling the emergency request—21 days to file a TRO? Even the most jaded court-watchers cringed at that amateur hour.

Trump’s purge sprint hits a procedural pothole, not a moral one. The admin’s playbook? Fire, delay, repeat. Reyes’s ruling isn’t a win for accountability; it’s a bureaucratic limbo where IG roles dangle like puppets. The real kicker? Even if reinstated, Trump could ax them again in 30 days. Democracy’s checks and balances? More like a dumpster fire with a lifetime subscription.
