Protect #Sazan Island from the #Trump family!
"Do not let Sazan Island become the playground of #billionaires. One of the last #pristine sites in #Albania should be protected and ordinary #Albanians should benefit from its natural beauty, not the #ultra-rich!"
#Nature is for everyone to enjoy, not a luxury commodity to be sold off to the highest bidder. And right now, Albanians are fighting for that right alone against one of the richest families in the world.

A federal judge strikes down Trump administration immigration policy affecting 39 countries ~
In a nutshell, US District Judge John McConnell Jr. said that the #trump admin ignored the law and did whatever it wanted, justifying its actions with bogus 'national security’ pretexts as a cover for anti-immigrant bias that it is not supposed to let influence its decision making.

#Trump Keeps #Immunity From #IRS, a Victory in a Long Feud
Even as they rebelled against a $1.8B #SlushFund for Trump’s allies, #Republicans looked the other way as his admin granted him lucrative #tax protections.
#Senate Republican anger about Trump’s $1.8B fund for people who claim to be victims of federal overreach was loud & apparent.
…Not so for sweeping protections from IRS audits that #ToddBlanche also ordered up for Trump, his family & his businesses.

Minority leader Sen Chuck Schumer introduced the motion as the Senate considered #Republicans’ $70 billion #immigration enforcement bill. #ToddBlanche, the acting AG, previously said the fund was dead, but Trump expressed his support for it as recently as Wednesday, saying, “I love it.”

Lawmakers Demand Answers After the White House Initiated a $620M Loan to a Firm Tied to Donald Trump Jr.
In a letter, a group of Democratic Congress members wrote that ProPublica’s reporting on the deal “reveals a staggering level of corruption and influence.”Alex.Bandoni@propublica.org (ProPublica)
#Trump is the most unpopular and incompetent president in US history, but he can still win midterm elections through the Republican’s oldest trick - #gerrymandering.
Put creative borders around your voting districts so that all ethnic minorities are squeezed into only one district, and you can do anything you want.
Of course, the Supreme Court is supposed to block this. But what do you do when the Supreme Court is staffed with the judges that you appointed yourself?

Supreme Court allows Alabama to use congressional map favoring Republicans in this year's elections
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court on Tuesday allowed Alabama to use a congressional map favoring Republicans in this year’s elections, blocking a lower court ruling that the redistricting plan intentionally discriminates against Black people.Associated Press - By MARK SHERMAN
#SCOTUS dealt with the case in an unsigned order [cowards] over the dissent of the 3 liberal justices.
The order on the court’s #EmergencyDocket is the latest instance of the justices dipping into the nationwide flurry of mid-decade #redistricting instigated by #Trump’s desire for the #GOP to retain control [steal #elections] of the #House in this November’s midterms.

#ToddBlanche’s announcement that he plans to kill the anti-weaponization #SlushFund but keep in place a deal that shields #Trump from past #tax #liability [#fraud] is likely to break the #Senate impasse over passage of an #immigration bill.
But the tax agreement—which could save Trump >$100 million, per a NYT analysis—could be highly damaging for #Republicans forced to defend that they supported a deal that enriches a billionaire with #TaxpayersMoney.

“The pattern is familiar.
#Trump pushes all of his chips to the middle of the table — a collusive IRS lawsuit, a bogus DOJ settlement, a corrupt slush fund, and a get-a-out-of-jail-free card for himself & family — and then merely signals that he’s thinking of pulling back ONE chip, and official D.C. gets the vapors.”
