Y'all 'member the $2Bill Insurrectionist Slush Fund and Tax Amnesty that the #DOJ gave the #Trump family and friends?

Well sir, it appears that legal minds with gavels are concerned, what with the blatant corruption and whatnot.

The judge has just *re-opened* the case, a thing almost unheard of post settlement, and is wondering if the DOJ has "committed fraud against the court".

I am not familiar with court protocol, so I didn't even know a case could be reopened, I'll be honest. I cannot wait to see DOJ try to explain this theft though.

'...Immigration and Customs Enforcement published a request for information in January seeking input on how “commercial Big Data and Ad Tech providers can directly support investigations,” a request that came as the administration was pursuing efforts to expand the United States’ immigration enforcement capabilities. It appears to be the first time ICE has issued a public request on how to use this kind of data, which can include information on people’s purchases, web browsing or social media use.

[...] “It’s very shocking to see it in black and white that the government is trying to use the digital advertising ecosystem to find and target immigrants,” said O’Kelley, who is the CEO of AI-advertising firm Scope3 and helped develop the online advertising exchange that the industry relies on.

“It makes me very, very nervous about how people’s day-to-day use of the internet or their interactions with social media turn into being targeted. That’s terrifying.”...'

In 1962, Bob Dylan recorded "Talkin' John Birch Paranoid Blues”, which poked fun at the society and its tendency to see Communist conspiracies in many situations. When he attempted to perform it on the £d Sullivan Show in 1963, however, CBS's Standards and Practices department forbade it, fearing that lyrics equating the Society's views with those of Adolf Hitler might trigger a defamation lawsuit. Dylan was offered the opportunity to perform a different song, but he responded that if he could not sing the number of his choice he would rather not appear at all. The story generated widespread media attention in the days that followed; Sullivan denounced the network's decision in published interviews

Palestine is the area inhabited continuously for ~4000 years by indigenous Palestinians.

They comprised 90% of the popn when, in 1917, imperial Britain decided - without consulting them - to hand over much of their land to immigrant Jews from Europe.

The sovereign rights of indigenous Palestinians were ignored. And still are.

On Twitter/X.com: Seyed Mohammad Marandi reposted US Rep Ro Khanna tweets: The DOJ is literally investigating a sexual assault survivor, E Jean Carroll, instead of a single perpetrator in the Epstein files. US Rep Thomas Massie tweets: Zero investigations, indictments, arrests, or even so much as a parking ticket for Epstein’s coconspirators. As Melania said, Epstein did not act alone.

Due to increasing internal concern about US military aid to Israel, the two militaries will be all but fused together.

“Despite an unpopular Iran war and an even more unpopular Trump administration, college campus protests nationwide have gone silent. And at many schools, student activism is virtually nonexistent.

Reports cite a range of complicated factors for the restraint, from apathy to technology-induced incapacity. But as public policy and law and social science experts, we believe students aren’t protesting for a very simple reason: They are afraid. They are self-censoring and disengaging from campaign activism to avoid punitive measures.”

U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper has barred Trump from adding his name to that of the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.

The Judge also temporarily blocked the board of the performing arts landmark from closing it for two years for renovations, as Trump wanted.

“Congress gave the Kennedy Center its name, and only Congress can change it,” Cooper wrote.

Alt...

From the ruling: The Court has concluded that the Board overstepped its statutory bounds by unilaterally renaming the Kennedy Center after President Trump. In 1964, Congress deliberately rechristened the “National Cultural Center” the “John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.” The text, structure, and evolution of the organic statute makes the institution’s name abundantly clear. Congress likewise took pains to ensure that no other memorial-like dedication would grace the Center’s public spaces. As a result, the Kennedy Center Board’s decision to rename the Center, along with its decision to affix Trump’s name to the building’s façade, violate Congress’s unequivocal mandate. As stated at the outset, Congress gave the Kennedy Center its name, and only Congress can change it. The Board also overstepped its statutory bounds by unilaterally stripping ex officio trustees of any right to vote on trust matters. The relevant provision of the May 2025 bylaw amendments finds no support in the statute, as Congress hinted at no qualitative difference between general and ex officio trustees, and the common law presumptively places them on equal footing. .. Finally, the Court is preliminarily persuaded that the Board’s March 16 vote to close the Kennedy Center pending a years-long renovation represents a dereliction of its common-law-derived duty of prudence. ...

"It’s not supposed to be simple to make big changes. But majorities in the House and the Senate are what the constitution envisions. There are exceptions: treaties, conviction of impeached officials, overriding presidential vetoes, constitutional amendments, et al. The existence of these special cases tell us clearly that the framers believed there were some cases where more than simple majorities should be required. It specified what those were. They did not believe that should be required for ordinary legislation. For many of us what the constitution actually says and requires is enough."

"This is Trump’s last resort, and what we are seeing more frequently now. It’s the most revealing Trump move because he deploys it only when all else has failed: He couldn’t pass the blame, the numbers wouldn’t stop being terrible, and he couldn’t delegitimize the system. The mistakes and damage are too visible and too self-inflicted. His solution? Retroactively 'un-want' the goal.

He achieves this by announcing, in public, that the failed outcome was never even what he was after. You can’t hold him accountable, after all, for failing to achieve something he never wanted in the first place."
