Weird times, indeed.
But which is dumber: Dead Kennedys without Jello, or Sex Pistols without Johnny?

Depends on whether you're in court in Louisiana or California.
I am wondering how federal judges will hold administration officials in contempt. What happens then?

Maybe everyone is too busy ignoring oral orders and only following the written ones.
Holy shit I couldn't believe that position. I can't imagine trying to assert it with a straight face to a federal judge.
Anyway, I think the guardrails (the federal courts) are barely keeping the American bus on the road. Barely. I was certain they were going to start ignoring orders. And then this whole grand experiment would be over.
We just need to get to midterms, and I need to figure out what to do with my almost 6-year old Tesla.

We're fucked if it gets to that point.

I assume they are only (sorta) following orders now because they think the 6 will ultimately vindicate them. Before Trump v US, I would have thought they were overconfident, but when you ignore the literal text of the constitution to make up presidential immunity out of whole cloth, you've already trashed your integrity. |

From some platforms I see that Musk’s company got astronauts back from the space station. But it is not widely reported. Did that happen?

Many of us are playing squirrel hiding from the hawk. When 47 starts squashing law firms, only lawyers give a fuck. Regular folk are like “Oh no. Anyway”.

Seems like we are going to get to that point very, very quickly, because the administration playbook right now is all about pushing back against any constraints on what they want to do.

I mean, today, they said "oops, our bad, we sent an innocent guy to the fucking gulag in El Salvador and we aren't going to do squat to rectify this".
This is the sort of shit they used to scare us about when they told us how horrible the communists in the USSR were when we were kids.
