While we’re waiting to see if this maladministration can even use the AEA to remove Venezuelan’s, it would be interesting to see if any of those already deported, were allowed to stay when trump signed the DED on Jan. 19th, 2021

They agreed that Russia and Ukraine have been at war since 2022. There is still disagreement on whether both sides would honor a ceasefire much less agree to put an end to war. (h/t Pete Seeger)

Like the ridiculous Al Smith Dinner and “Prayer Breakfasts,” this is another one of those DC “traditions” that should be relegated to the compost heap.

Trump and Putin are working on an agreement for raping and pillaging Ukraine, seizing their production and reserves of petrochemicals and rare earth minerals. Once this “sharing” pact is sorted out Ukraine will be given an ultimatum, in the guise of a “peace agreement”, that they either accept or some very real pain will befall all of them.

Gammon is a pejorative term popularised in British political culture since the 2010s. The term refers to the colour of a white person’s flushed face, which purportedly resembles the type of pork of the same name.
ETA David Cameron is the quintessential “gammon”.

A momentary uptick in my cultural knowledge that will quickly recede from my short term memory but may reemerge in long term memory should I live that much longer.

Amazing to realize that there is a line in the sand on grifting for orange butt.

This is how this Bondi nazi bitch is justifying getting away with a warrantless run-around against due process even though there hasn’t been any such Enemies Alien Act accepted by the courts to date.
There has been a hold on deportations under this proposed act, however until such matters are decided by the court, the defiance by tRump, Bondi, Rubio and ICE continues. This is some sick shit. This woman is so far off field with this kind of extra-judicial guidance.
I don’t know how she became an the Attorney General with such a bent concept of the law. She’s such an embarrassment.
Btw, did you know that there is no requirement the Attorney Generals of the US needs to have a law license? I was surprised to read that. Also that this asswipe is making a quarter million dollars a year at her job coming up with this crap.
And to top it off…the timing of cutting off the Public Integrity Unit that also deals independently from Bondi, Patel and all the other yayhoos has been shrunk to the size of a walnut.
The inspector general at DoJ…this guy…
…seems no where to be seen. Nada. Zero. Zip. Bupkis. Btw, this guy can’t be fired by tRump so why is he being silent as our democracy is on the line?
If SCOTUS doesn’t take back its authority putting this maladministration on notice, in support of other courts below them, and as part of the entire Judicial branch…what the fuck good are they?

Yes, Putin and CF-DJT will come to an agreement. And the world’s greatest businessman and negotiator will be shocked a few months later when Putin says “Never mind” and ignores everything that has been written down.

“Roly-poly gammon and spinach, hi-ho!” - from “A frog he would a-wooin’ go” anon. (Scotland, est. 16th C).
On the topic of slurs pejorative, there is some speculation that “roly-poly” is a riff on an aristocratic family name.
