My family is holding on, but we are all exhausted. My son teaches American History and a Constitutional Law class in high school: he is having a field day letting students know about the lawlessness of this administration. We are all just waiting for the Congressional elections but know they will be contested by Trump. Let’s all hang on and resist the gas lighting.
My granddaughter starts her senior year of high school this month. She will be taking American government. I plan to have some serious conversations with her! Great timing as she will be 18 in March.
So proud to be part of this team and work alongside Scott every day to bring these stories to light. The airport gate workers standing up for due process really says it all.
Kudos to the gate agents for stopping these folks from getting on the plane--since they could be anybody. Why was TSA created if not to protect passengers from harm? Meanwhile, I'd like to know how these supposed ICE folks were able to get to the gate.
My children are grown with families of their own, and we are handling things the very best we can. As far as the jobs report, I do not believe anything that comes out of this corrupt regime and to have those lies confirmed makes me happy. I want to give a round of applause to those airline workers that are standing up to ICE! We do have people in this country that are not afraid to stand up and speak out against these thugs! Well done and thank you! I am also glad that the orange POS's ballroom has been halted! He had no right whatsoever to demolish the East Wing of our House! How dare him! When he is brought up on all of the charges that will be his reckoning, I want part of his sentence to be that his money will be used to repair every damn thing he has destroyed. His money will be used to restore the White House, the Reflecting Pool, the Kennedy Center, our nation's public lands and anything else that asshole has destroyed. His money will be used for ALL of it! Keep fighting, America! Stay strong and stay safe!
You're right, Cassandra, and it is high time he paid for the devastation he has inflicted on our country! The money he has accumulated is not his, so make him use that money to pay for rebuilding what he has tried to destroy!
We are retired but the $ don’t go where they were going and now we are continuing to assist our son whose employment issues are far worse than either if us have ever faced, for a variety of reasons but exacerbated severely by the downturns in the hospitality sector. But the worst for both of us personally (newspaper editor & lawyer) is to see what a decade of destruction by 47 et al has rendered to the nation we love and were proud of.
I read you every morning, Scott. And I swear I am amazed more every day how people can fail to see the corruption, cover ups, lies & terrible government management by Republicans. It makes me feel like Republicans are just FLAT & SELF SERVING & SPIRITUALLY DEAD. I guess they always have been but this trump term is beyond the pale. They are cruel & lie unabashedly. They WILL fall but not soon enough for me.
Without your post, Scott, I would have never known about the Soutwest worker who stood up to the ICE thugs. Made my day! A hero! Helps me to believe there are MORE people who are good and compassionate than there are greedy, selfish pricks.
More encouraging news continuing through the weekend! Thanks to you and your team, Scott!
Southwest should get an award for their adherence to the laws! This should be what all the airlines should do, not just the exception.
Trumpstein files, if we can't get access fromDOJ, could we get the files from the estate? Criminal lawyer of defense Blanch will likely put them in a locked box 📦 and in concrete to avoid handing them over.
The countdown continues, and we will need to double our efforts to get EVERYONE to vote 🗳
As I am a childless, catless dog-person, I especially enjoy seeing Jaded Lance eating his feet so often. Must be the lies are tangling his tongues.
We are holding on, but it is a daily roller coaster of emotions. Sometimes, as in hearing of wins where judges have made an appropriate ruling, I feel great hope and feel assured that voters will understand what is at stake and will make every effort to vote. Other times-like when the F’ing senate confirmed Blanche, knowing how many people in this country with believe the lies or are too racist and bigoted to end their support of the criminal regime, I feel so demoralized. Knowing that evil dementia donnie and his puppet Blanche are working to subvert the election, I just hope that enough states step up to enact sufficient voter and vote protection laws such that we may elect a Congress that will take some action against the lawlessness. The jobs report is not a surprise. The regime always spouts lies to cover up all of the negative outcomes. I hope the real news is heard by those who really need to hear it.
I hear you SeeRay. I am demoralized today because Blanche got confirmed. Myself and others wrote our Reps daily for months. Some times thru this site, sometimes thru others, some days both, and with all our nay saying, Blanche gets confirmed because the GOP cowtows still to the soulless, blob of a human, Trump. Thank God the Courts are trying; Thank God there are people like the SW airline workers, but this blob is like a disease. He won't last forever, but his and his regime's lawlessness and disrespect to our Country, our Constitution, and fellow citizens have gone on too long. For sure, Vote! But he will try to overcome. Hope the blue vote is too big for him to manipulate and watch Musk. Heartsick today.
I have a hard time with the truth that so many of our senators and congresspeople have absolutely no morals and are so willing to flush our country down the toilet. Why? For short term $$? I have some hope that enough states will stand up to the regime and Blanche. Maybe the NM AG will do the right thing. I don’t live in NM but I’m writing and calling everyone I can to push the NM AG into action. Don’t give up Joanne! I’m not. It is just so hard sometimes…
Thank you for your reporting, Scott! 86 days is a long, long time for our shit-for-brains president to cause extreme havoc and chaos in our country. We need an overwhelming number of voters to VOTE BLUE!!!! VOTE BUE!!! VOTE BLUE!!! The Blue tsunami has to be sooooo overwhelming that is cannot be contested!!!!!!!!!!!
I was really missed off at SW for going the way of other airlines, charging for bags, having a tiered fee system, getting rid of extra room, but I am very happy they stood up. We should write them and give them kudos for protecting the rule of law.

Fun job! But must be tough
A college professor teaching Constitutional Law tells me he can now teach his class using the daily newspaper!!!!
The DOJ claiming in open court that “nobody could stop them” is wild. So glad the courts held the line on Friday.

Fantastic idea that Don-Old gets to repair all of the DC building blunders with his own ill-gotten gains... Oh, sweet justice!!!!
Absolutely, Michelle! Sweet justice indeed!
Excellent idea since most of it is actually our money. They have executed theft of public funds so obscene as to be almost unbelievable.

Way to go Southwest!
If only the GOP members of Congress had as much backbone.

You make a lot of great points
Scott has changed my energy around what is happening in our country.

We need an overwhelming number of voters to VOTE BLUE!!!! VOTE BUE!!! VOTE BLUE!!! The Blue tsunami has to be sooooo overwhelming that is cannot be contested!!!!!!!!!!!
MAKE SURE IT'S NOT AN AIPAC PROMOTED CANDIDATE or one flooded with ANONYMOUS DARK MONEYS PACs!
Thanks again Scott, the tide appears to be turning on the malodorous codpiece fascist regime!

You can still feel a certain way about SWA greed. That courage came from an individual, not the company.
True. I did write both when they changed their rules, and just now. I hope positive reinforcement helps.
