Some good news, for now, on the court front.  The 9th Circuit has vacated its ruling allowing Guard in Portland for an en banc hearing.

In the 9th Circuit, because it's so huge, en banc doesn't initially mean the entire court.  A random drawing of 11 judges constitutes an en banc panel.  The first en banc panel declined to rehear, but they asked the entire court, 31 judges, to rehear it and they voted to do so.

Was there this weekend as you know.  Love NYC.  I'll say this though - I can take a million pics of how beautiful Chicago is daily too, but we need to keep putting ICE bullshit on blast.  I know you didn't mean anything by this post and I love it.  Just want to point out even when Jewish people were being rounded up all over Europe, huge swaths of those countries looked like life as usual with beauty all around. 

There's a lot going on more underground here in Chicago, I don't think it does much good to post but there's solid resistance.  

Words been out since February at the very least in Chicago. Love that city. Fully expect them to find the way to bury the bullshit. Still waiting on Brandon or JP to find a way to take the TRUMP letters off his buildings and throw them in the river

hahaha so we just returned from Chicago and i didn't know until we arrived that our hotel was one block over from Trump tower there. we had to walk right in front of it with his stupid name every time we went anywhere 😝 i avoided any pictures of it...in fact i think this is the only one that even has it in the background, it's the really tall one in back on the right.

and yeah, to this point...i took about 200 amazing pictures...but we saw quite a few military helicopters in areas adjacent to downtown and the nightly local news was pretty distressing.

but good lord that is one beautiful city! 🤩 we had a fantastic time!

Fuck Trump times infinity.

@ChiTownDoc, agreed. But this whole hellscape thing is in direct opposition to what Trump and Fox News say about major cities.  We are not crime ridden hellscapes as they claim and the idiots in flyover states eat up. It is important to show people that all this regime does is lie to further its fascist agenda.

FYI, I was all around the civic center, and most likely because the courts are closed, there were no protests. Had there been, I probably would have joined in, as I usually do.

Can someone help me settle a bet? I made a drunk bet/claim to a family member that it cost more tax payer money, since 2018, to bailout Banks and CEOs with their golden parachutes than it has to pay out the taxes generated by illegal immigrants. Did I lose $500?

I'm not aware of any US government bank bailout since 2018.

CEO golden parachutes cost the shareholders, not the US government

Taxes generated from illegal immigrants would be an inflow to the US government

I'm not sure where that leaves you with your drunk bet though

I think that he should pay us $500 for having to sort through that incomprehensible shit.

We'll put it in the wreath fund.
