The Supreme Court on Monday allowed the Trump administration to use an 18th century wartime law to deport Venezuelan migrants, but said they must get a court hearing before they are taken from the United States.

In dissent, the three liberal justices said the administration has sought to avoid judicial review in this case and the court “now rewards the government for its behavior.” Justice Amy Coney Barrett joined portions of the dissent.

Most of the shows on here that I've seen looked pretty good before I watched them.

So, Ghosts (U.S.).

It's not revolutionary or anything. But I'm laughing every episode. It honestly feels like it shouldn't be as entertaining as it is.

House passed legislation Tuesday to avert a partial government shutdown and fund federal agencies through September, providing critical momentum as the measure now moves to the Senate, where bipartisan support will be needed to get it over the finish line.

Republicans needed overwhelming support from their members to pass the funding measure, and they got it in the 217-213 House vote.

It would be nice if journalism was this honest the last 8 FUCKING YEARS.

I'm not looking at obvious scam websites, unless the poster is actually unsure about it. But I was a community for sites that seem legit, but I'm skeptical for some reason.

I've been curious about 6DS.com, which has shirts identical to 6dollarshirts.com but costs more. What's also weird is that their Facebook page lists both sites. But their posts switched to links to 6DS.com in April.

"This is, of course, a slightly wild thing for the studio that made Morrowind (its actual best game) and Skyrim (its most popular game by miles) to say"

Holy crap, she's 31? She looks like a 60 year old that had extensive work to kind of look 40.

HOLY SHIT. This is a much bigger deal than people realize. Politico is suggesting that her identity is in question to begin with. It's not.

She didn't evade a question about her identity because there is no question about her identity. She passed an opportunity to get upset over Trump's comments.

The secretary of state's response filed Monday agrees that a staff member got an e-mail asking for a copy of what to submit. It states that a staff member replied with a Word document.

However, the response states that what the staffer emailed was "an internal recordkeeping document" and not any sort of template. The response states that no such template exists.

The response also denies Arkansans for Limited Government's claim that attorneys and representatives with the secretary of state's office assured the group it had filed the necessary paperwork.

What do you mean first? Isn't this like the fifth round of student loan forgiveness?

Jack Black has said he’s cancelled the rest of the Tenacious D world tour after his bandmate Kyle Gass sparked an outcry with a comment about the assassination attempt on Donald Trump.

The comedy rock group were on stage in Sydney, Australia, on Sunday when Gass was asked to make a wish after being presented with a cake for his 64th birthday.

He appeared to reply: "Don’t miss Trump next time."

Gass also split with his agent following the incident.

I get a lot of spam. In the subject it might say something about Home Warranty. The sender will say Home Warranty (the actual sender will be randomwords@randomwords.com).

But whenever I use my email's search engine, to delete all emails that say "Home Warranty", it can't find them.

Do people usually just ignore these types of emails?

I got banned from an .ml community for basically nothing and I remembered .ml is the tankies instance. So I'm looking for an alternative so I can be off of the instance entirely.

FWIW, the community was worldnews@lemmy.ml.

I assume I was banned because I said I understood Biden opposing surgery on minors, specifically trans surgery. Although I disagreed with it.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Oklahoma’s top education official ordered public schools Thursday to incorporate the Bible into lessons for grades 5 through 12, the latest effort by conservatives to incorporate religion into classrooms.

Wait, what? They're only just now doing this?

I get that it took awhile. But why do people always criticize the people doing the right stuff rather than the people causing harm?

Take the win!

The House on Saturday passed a $95 billion aid package that includes two long-awaited bills with $60.8 billion of Ukraine aid and $26 billion in aid to Israel.

The Ukraine bill, which passed with 311 votes in favor, 112 votes against, and one present, will now head to the Senate alongside the Israel aid bill and two others — one with aid for Taiwan and another that forces Tiktok's parent company to sell it.

I don't care if people like Biden. They just need to vote for him over the alternative.

Besides, a lot of the country has already decided they're going to hate him regardless.

"Three U.S. C-130 cargo planes dropped 66 total bundles, equating to about 38,000 pork-free meals, into the territory on Saturday morning. The bundles were split between three planes, the official said."

"The airdrop is expected to be the first of many announced by President Joe Biden on Friday. The aid will be coordinated with Jordan, which has also conducted airdrops to deliver food to Gaza."

I expect any VP should be ready to serve as long as they are VP. That's like, the biggest role of a VP other than as a tie breaker in the Senate.

Wait, what accused action? I thought they didn't even have an accused action.

Pregnancy comes with medical risk to the mother. Restricting abortion access is a clear violation of the 14th amendment.

Abortion is healthcare.

It kinda sounds like they wouldn't have been canceled if he hadn't made the effort. That's no difference from any other debt forgiveness that's within his power.
