- Reposted by David BadashStrange takes on Mayor Zamdani swearing his oath on the Qu’ran. It has nothing to do with church & state. The point of the oath is for the person swearing in to do so upon some text that is sacred TO THEM. Some Presidents swore in w/o any book. John Quincy Adams was sworn on a law book. His choice.
- “California will miss billionaires when they’re gone.” The best part of this Washington Post editorial is the comments, which are exactly what you’d imagine. wapo.st/4pVbOmW
- Reposted by David BadashIt is unfathomable that the USG lawyers would sign off on a no-survivors boat strike (no get of jail free card). There's clear precedent dating back to World War II trial of Germans for that very act, which lawyers know well. The Peleus World War II War Crimes Trial www.usni.org/magazines/na...

- Some experts believe the justices won’t take up Davis’s case at all, while others say they will, and see it as a vehicle to overturn marriage equality and toss it back to the states — which the Court did in Dobbs — removing the constitutional right to abortion.

- "But, you know, from Trump's perspective, I'm sure, it means he thinks that, this is a real tough thing to do to really show the world that we're not afraid to test our weapons, maybe we're not afraid to use them," WaPo's Josh Rogin told CNN.

- Reposted by David BadashAbout this Florida vaccine story: When they were little - 1 yr and 3 1/2 - my two older boys, who’d had all their shots, got whooping cough. We asked their pediatrician what would’ve happened if they hadn’t been vaccinated. “Oh, they’d have died.”

- It just hit me: This is the last summer we will live as a free people in a functioning democracy, for a long time. Now that Trump has signed his “Big Beautiful Bill” into law, this weekend feels like a demarcation point—the moment in time we’ll remember as the line where freedom fell.
- Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” shovels billions to the ultra-wealthy—and it’s about to pass. The Rockefellers, the Carnegies, the Vanderbilts built libraries, hospitals, and universities. They at least bought some redemption. 1/2

- Secretary Hegseth must be fired. Period. And to impart national and international confidence in the U.S. and the Pentagon, President Trump *must* nominate a Democratic or Independent previous Secretary of Defense to this critical position.
- Reposted by David BadashThe Trump administration has quietly doubled down on its decision to stop sending emergency food to children starving in Bangladesh, Somalia, and other countries. Without urgent intervention, these children might die within months, @hana-kiros.bsky.social reports. theatln.tc/kQAZFJJw
