- Reposted by Sally StipeI'm trying to come up with a metaphor for how the Trump administration's gamesmanship (e.g., moving detainees around to try to defeat jurisdiction in specific districts) helps to drive home the dire consequences of a #SCOTUS ruling that would limit universal injunctions. "Cheating at Battleship"?

- Reposted by Sally StipeUnder the House GOP’s budget plan, the richest 0.1% of taxpayers would see a more than $180,000 gain in income. The lowest-income taxpayers, meanwhile, would see a $1,125 LOSS. That’s on top of deep cuts to Medicaid and SNAP. It’s trickle-down economics on steroids.

- Reposted by Sally StipeReading reporting this morning that some of Trump's material last night was "new" or "darker" makes one thing clear: A lot of people have been in *denial*. None of this is "new." It has been on full display all along. Just because you didn't want to see it doesn't mean it wasn't there.
