Last week’s federal court decision forbidding the Trump administration from punishing the AP for refusing to rename the Gulf of Mexico was to take effect Monday. The administration is appealing the decision and arguing with the news outlet over whether it needs to change anything until those appeals are exhausted.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. circuit set a Thursday hearing on Trump’s request that any changes be delayed while case is reviewed. The AP is fighting for more access as soon as possible.
“Despite court order…” is becoming the ubiquitous intro to news about the Trump administration.
i know they wouldn’t be getting a conviction, but the dems seriously have to be bringing up impeachment if they want any political future for themselves, and they need to be doing it frequently
Impeachment is a circus act now. I’d rather they spent thier energy actually doing something useful.
Please, just let the Dems die off and become the neoliberal republicans they’ve always aspired to be.
We need a new party that is actually left of center to even begin repairing this level of damage to the republic.
Dems. Ain’t. It. Too old, too corrupt, and F tier political messaging.
cool… and your plan is? because if its anything but keep voting for dems until you change the system then i’ve got cheeto shaped news for ya bud: that’s how ya fucking got this mess
Naww, they can assimilate into the GOP slip, we can make the Dem party our own.
That’s because impeachment is a political process, not a legal one. Trump is inaccessible to the courts, but they should start holding DoJ and DHS lawyers and officials in contempt and have their marshals detain them.
At the end of the day, trump is just a whiny demented full-grown-toddler giving orders. If his cabinet doesn’t have the balls to 25th him, they should at least stop doing what he says.
Wasn’t this guy impeached last time he was in office? The American people have spoken and we have chosen a dipshit to run the country because most people who voted for him believed that he would hurt the people who are taking advantage of them.
Don’t undersell it. This convicted felon was impeached twice and found liable for rape before we elected him again!
USA! USA! US- Hey! I’m a citizen, you can’t deport me!!!
Yup, America officially becomes fascist. The executive simply doesn’t respect the judicial branch anymore.
Mark my words, Trump will not let go gently come 2029.
Mark my words, Trump will not let go gently come 2029.
That’s the most depressing thing I’ve read for a long time. Even in the best case scenario we’re stuck with this bullshit until twenty twenty fucking nine!!
eh idk, maybe we’ll get a military coup and a new constitutional convention. We’ve been overdue for one since the last civil war
Haven’t you heard though?
Both parties are the same apparently
Also “hunter bidens laptop” /s
It’s literally 1 party which isn’t following any laws and getting in shit fights with literally, vs a party where Israel is the only bad thing that can be said about it…
It’s like that black mirror episode with Waldo.
Nobody in this administration should ever use the word ‘constitution’ in any context other than when playing D&D.
And for the fifth time this month, we stress test democracy!
I mean, if they’re going to refuse to honor a supreme court decision that instructs them to facilitate the return of a legal immigrant from the foreign prison they sent him to, why the hell would they care about a DC circuit ruling?
Americans are still going “CAN THEY DO THAT???” every day.
When they announce martial law, people are still going to be like “Well, this is not good, I’m going to rethink my vote!”
When the announce martial law
Why bother even announcing martial law? Trump’s DHS is functionally implementing it as we speak. We are in a state of de facto martial law whether we want to acknowledge it as such or not.
Whether they are appealing or not, this sounds like the administration is breaking the law. The ruling to allow AP doesn’t stop taking effect if an appeal is in process.
The Trump Administration keeps abusing that. They appeal something, and just do whatever they want until the appeal is processed.
