Best video of the year, so far.
Recently I've watched several documentaries about the 1960s & the Vietnam War -- lots that's relevant today
This one notion stuck with me more than anything else I learned
I'd never heard it or considered this before
A small bird with mottled white and reddish plumage, a greenish crown, and a tiny white spot on its head is perched on a thin, pale branch against a smooth green background.
This young male Snowcap is developing his adult feathers quite nicely and he's even starting to get his white cap here.

Dumb shit
Infographic titled “Judges reject Trump at an accelerating pace” with subtitle “Federal district court rulings against the administration.” The first bar chart, labeled “By month, %”, shows the percentage of federal district court rulings against the Trump administration: • February: 53.8% (7 out of 13) • March: 74.3% (26 out of 35) • April: 76.1% (51 out of 67) • May: 96.3% (26 out of 27) The second bar chart, labeled “By appointing party, %”, shows rulings against the Trump administration by the party of the judge’s appointing president: • Republican-appointed judges: 72.2% (26 out of 36) • Democratic-appointed judges: 80.4% (74 out of 92) Source: Bonica, Adam; Sen, Maya, 2025, “Common-space Measures of Judicial Ideology for Federal Judges (2024 update),” https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/CK3EEL Note: Coding scheme details available at data4democracy.substack.com/p/when-judges-become-targets-judicial
Stunning. May was brutal for Trump in federal court: 96% loss rate ⚖️. Even GOP-appointed judges have ruled against the admin 72% of the time. District courts are doing their job defending the Constitution. Soon the Supreme Court may be the only court unwilling to defend the rule of law.

“There were times when David Souter thought of Bush v. Gore and wept." And he seriously considered leaving the court after it. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/09/u... Interesting - I hadn't thought about Souter in a long time.
As if Trump would ever raise taxes on the people he runs to every weekend so he can get a standing ovation for eating dinner.
For anyone whose day will be bittersweet tomorrow 💙

Randomly remembering when Mark Burnett, possibly the man most responsible for the Trump boom, cast an Obama look alike as the Antichrist.
It would be amazing if the win streak continued to an anti-Trump pope.

It’s possible he’s also mocking the people who support him blindly.
“Do not mock us.”
