this is why #vonderLeyen makes the big bucks

it take superhuman composure to just sit there, letting her soul leave her body and join the astral plane, to escape the eldritch horror of abject stupidity before her, and not say "will you just shut the fuck up please?" like 99% of humanity would

seriously what the fuck is this orange turd babbling about

it's 2025 and this bloviating dotard leads a powerful nation

not powerful for long i guess

It's funny how the smoothest, straightest, easy-to-navigate roads often run through some of the most boring landscapes.

And some of the roughest, most circuitous and rugged ones take us through incredibly beautiful places. Maybe it's because we're moving so much slower that we take time to appreciate our surroundings.

Nature has her moments of fury and storm. But she also has times, many times, of serenity and calm, times when we can look and marvel at her majesty.

And experience peace.

I used to think (in my naivety) that a judge on the Supreme Court was the smartest in the Judiciary — cream of the crop, top of the line…

But damn I can see that’s not true because this is some A-class manipulation and gaslighting by Trump Administration lawyers—

And it makes sense that the people directing #Trump during his first term would put judges in #SCOTUS who would roll over for him.

In remarks to reporters at the White House, the president called the ruling "an amazing decision, one that we're very happy about," adding that the court
"delivered a monumental victory for the Constitution, the separation of powers and the rule of law, in striking down the excessive use of nationwide injunctions to interfere with the normal functioning of the executive branch."
Asked what he would say to people who fear the decision will concentrate power in presidency, Trump said, "This really brings back the Constitution. This is what it's all about, and this is really the opposite of that."
The court was divided on ideological lines on the issue, with conservatives in the majority and liberals in dissent.

"When a court concludes that the executive branch has acted unlawfully, the answer is not for the court to exceed its power, too," Justice Amy Coney Barrett wrote for the majority.
But she indicated that the nationwide injunctions are limited "only to the extent that the injunctions are broader than nec-essary."
Lower courts, she added "shall move expeditiously" to figure out how broad the injunctions can be.
The court also said that the administration can continue working administratively on how the policy would be implemented.

This is Chasiv Yar. A town in Ukraine’s #Donetsk region, turned into ruin by Russia. Streets erased by shelling. Apartment blocks ripped open. Schools, kindergartens, shops, cafés – all reduced to nothing.

Ukrainian defenders are holding the line here. A few civilians remain. The danger is constant. The sound of drones overhead is never far.

Support for Ukraine isn’t charity. It’s how we prevent this horror from spreading. Russia won’t stop on its own. But united, we can put an end to this war.

"Sleazebags"* -- What Trump called the relatively small-sized businesses that brought the #tariffs case to the Supreme Court.

It sounds like he plans on stiffing them (not paying them back their revenue lost because of Trump's tariffs, like the Supreme Court ordered), because when asked whether he planned to pay them as ordered, he said, "We'll be in court for the next five years."

The Southwest is rapidly losing groundwater due to overpumping and climate change, study finds

US Economy Flashing Warning Signs—

with the services sector showing signs of stagnation~

Services make up ~”more than 2/3 of overall US economic activity,” yet seem to get little attention from the Trump Admin, which is highly focused on the production of goods.

The data from The Institute for Supply Management coincides with the BLS’s revised jobs report (which #trump fired the BLS commissioner over).

The Institute for Supply Management's index of services declined last month to 50.1, below all estimates in a Bloomberg survey of economists. Readings above 50 indicate expansion.
The employment index dropped to 46.4, contracting for the fourth time in five months and marking one of the lowest readings since the pandemic. The group's measure of prices paid for materials and services, meanwhile, climbed to the highest since October 2022.
The data, released Tuesday, paint a picture of a sluggish service economy wrestling with the fallout of higher tariffs, cautious consumers and uncertainty stemming from President Donald Trump's policies.

The image displays four line graphs related to the US service economy, titled "US Service Economy Nearly Stalls as Demand Cools." The graphs illustrate the trends of the PMI Services Index, New Orders Index, Employment Index, and Prices-Paid Index from July 2024-current. Overall trends (with marked fluctuations): PMI Services Index—decreasing, New orders index— decreasing, Employment index — decreasing (with major fluctuations), Prices-paid index— increasing

"Continued expansion of activity in new orders index together with a slight improvement in the backlog of orders index highlight the resilience of the US services sector," Steve Miller, chair of the ISM Services Business Survey Committee, said on a conference call. "No question, however, the tariffs are raising prices-paid, a potential driver of future inflation."
Eleven services industries reported growth in July, including transportation, wholesale trade and finance. Seven industries contracted, led by accommodation and food services.
The services sector is by far the largest in the US economy, and has helped drive growth this year while the manufacturing industry contracted for five straight months.

But the latest report aligns with an economy that's flashing warning signs.
Data out last week showed a much weaker labor market previously thought after revisions to May and June, and inflation-adjusted consumer spending barely rose.

Well, I guess the day is coming to a close: it's late afternoon, and the sun's slanting light glances over the surface of the river, touches the trees on the landscape and sets their colors on fire.

But I don't need to be in any hurry to end this moment, this day of peace. I haven't been in a rush up to now, and I have no plans to break into one.

If you are not progressive left — which is the only way we save this country — I don’t want to hear from you anymore.

I will vote progressively or not at all. It is not up for debate or discussion.

I will not support pedophile Nazis or their sympathizers or collaborators. Unity is not more important than accountability and change.

As Hell Rains Down on Iran, Western Media Turns Its Head

"Similarly, the media has centered economics and the Global North and its citizens, with CNN for example, headlining, “Gas is just the start: What else the Iran war could soon cost you,” and the BBC, “Honeymooners’ relief to be home after Dubai hotel hit.” But the BBC did not cover the damage to Chehel Sotoun, and only briefly mentioned the damage to the Golestan Palace."
