Fantastic turnout today No Kings March, Palm Beach Gardens. Probably 2000 people or so both sides of busy highway, very inspiring in the brutal 32.5C heat/high RH. Only 2 MAGAt problems, big black oversized trucks w big wheels (always trouble, those) speeding past, yelling, flipping off. If police weren't there, they may well have run into the crowd. My 89 yr. old father, USMC vet was with 👍🏽. Carlin Park run this morn., before, so taxing for me. #nokings #florida #running #birds

Via Quinta Jurecic:
the Court comes to the administration's rescue ... but not Florida's
Steven Mazie:
BREAKING: Supreme Court *denies* #Florida’s emergency request to let it implement a law barring undocumented immigrants from entering the state. There is no written opinion. No noted dissents.
My new crackly pot inspired another blog post because 500 characters just isn't enough.
"The cracks have a beautifully raw quality, like a dried lake bed or elephant skin. They’ve come to feel like a map of this place: a visual echo of our fractured geology, our sinkhole-prone foundation, our porous aquifers and eroding coasts. The fragility of the sig surface mirrors the fragility of the land itself."

“A #Florida judge sided with #Trump. Behind the scenes, he was lobbying for a nomination.
Ed Artau was already meeting with Senate staff about securing a nomination to the federal bench when he sided with Trump in a case”

Kat Cammack, a Florida Republican, struggled to get care for an ectopic pregnancy due to her state’s abortion ban.
Is she fighting to change the ban? Talking about those who’ve lost their lives?
No. She’s blaming the left. Saying it’s pro abortion “fear mongering” that caused the delay.
She’s blaming the very people who’ve been trying to save her & those like her.
Her delay was caused by healthcare workers fearing criminal prosecution.
They can’t intervene until it’s clear the life of the mother is in jeopardy.
It’s a horribly difficult judgment call no healthcare worker should ever be forced to make.
Shame on Kat for not taking her experience and using it to save lives.
