Trump rages into the night at “disloyal Republicans” after bombshell Supreme Court smackdown
WAAAAAAAAH! The President of the United States kicked off his weekend with an extended freakout, bitterly complaining about how his justices “vote against the Republicans, and never against themselves, almost every single time, no matter how good a case we have” (entirely untrue) and raging that “Republicans are so disloyal to themselves!” The Supreme Court was put into a position where the Constitution is so explict that even they — well, Gorsuch and Coney Barrett, anyway — couldn’t argue their way out of it (Thomas, Alito, and Kavanaugh made it clear that they are just fine with the President using the Constitution as toilet paper). His fury is a reminder to everyone involved that no amount of loyalty, bootlicking, and rubber-stamping is enough to satiate Donald Trump — a single infraction against him is enough to make you his enemy.

Virginia voters can stop Trump’s election rigging — and level the playing field
Virginians For Fair Elections Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans are trying to rig the 2026 midterms by pressuring red states to redraw congressional maps behind closed doors — cutting voters out of the process and stacking the deck before a single ballot is cast. Virginia has a chance to do something different. A proposed, temporary constitutional amendment would give voters — not politicians — the final say. Under the amendment, proposed congressional maps would be made public, and Virginians would be able to review them and vote on them before any maps take effect. Now, Virginians for Fair Elections is launching a statewide effort to make sure voters know what’s at stake — and to ensure Virginia leads by protecting fair representation instead of following Trump’s rigged playbook. Will you chip in today to help level the playing field and defend our democracy?

Almost half of jury pool in Musk trial tossed after “so many” said they “hate” him
Elon Musk recieved a brutal treatment by a jury pool in San Francisco, with almost half of the prospective jurors being disqualified because they declared their hatred for the tech CEO — one even went so far as to say he wanted to see Musk in prison. The case stems from a class action lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California by investors in Twitter, the predecessor to Musk’s X platform, who allege he violated federal securities laws with his months of public indecision over purchasing the company as a scheme to drive down the the price of shares before he completed the purchase in October 2022, causing the investors financial harm.

ICE begins to purchase warehouses, but some owners are backing out of deals
More than 20 towns with large warehouses have become stealth targets for Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s $45 billion expansion of detention centers.

Man fatally shot last year now revealed to have been killed by ICE
According to reporting published Friday by The New York Times, 23-year-old U.S. citizen Ruben Ray Martinez was fatally shot by ICE agents in South Texas in March 2025 after allegedly failing to follow commands to exit his vehicle. Per newly revealed internal ICE documents, Martinez was shot multiple times and killed on South Padre Island, Texas, in the early hours of March 15, 2025. The Department of Homeland Security described the shooting as self-defense, saying the agent “fired defensive shots to protect himself, his fellow agents, and the general public” after Martinez allegedly “ran over” an agent. The injured officer was later treated for a knee injury and released. But Martinez’s family disputes that account. His mother, Rachel Reyes, told the Times her son was a “good kid” with no criminal history who had been celebrating his birthday days earlier.
