What decision?

You really should ready things before you comment on them.

"The justices, with the court's three liberals dissenting, granted an emergency request filed by the government seeking to block an appeals court ruling that said the current process is unlawful because the affected people are not given a proper chance to raise concerns about safety risks in violation of federal immigration law.

In the brief unsigned order, the court also said it would hear oral arguments in December and issue a definitive ruling on the legal questions raised in the litigation."

We're not sure if this is legal or not but you can keep sending people to third world hell holes where they will be in extreme personal danger until we get around to making a decision is a ridiculous position for any court to take.

More: Until March 2010, Umar Kremlev did not exist.

Before then, the man who would go on to pay for Donald Trump Jr's post-wedding party in the Bahamas was called Umar Lutfulloev.

At 28 years old, with reported convictions for extortion and battery under his belt, and his hope of building a boxing career extinguished by ill discipline, Lutfulloev wanted to turn over a new leaf and climb the rungs of Russian society.

There was no better surname than Kremlev " "The Kremlin's man".

Without the (racist) whites, Trump had no one.

He'll always have boaz.

Must have hit a bit too close to home for the "far-right commentators." Must be afraid they'll have to get off their asses and work.

Odd that this didn't seem to make the news anywhere.

Yeah if Janet Jackson's ----- was international news this would have been all anyone was talking about if it was true.

Horde.

It's too early for historical accuracy.

This caravan will slowly march north like the mongol hoard devastating the countryside and eating nothing but white babies the whole way and then miraculously evaporate in early November.

More: Senate Appropriations Chair Susan Collins, R-Maine, said the White House budget office "intentionally withheld these funds for months to execute this unlawful cancellation of appropriations that were approved on a bipartisan basis and signed into law."

"I will work with my colleagues to address these illegal actions," she added in a statement.

And Connecticut Rep. Rosa DeLauro, the House Appropriations Committee's ranking Democrat, echoed that view.

"Not only is freezing the money in this proposal illegal, but the administration has also clearly been unlawfully impounding funds all year just to get to this point," DeLauro said in a statement.

Why buy them when Hegseth's DOD is shipping highly classified F-35 components to them for free?

More: Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said in July that he found 15,903 noncitizen voters on Nevada's voter rolls. The New York Times on Thursday reported that a follow-up meeting between DHS officials and Nevada election officers revealed that the number was wildly incorrect.

"So what you're saying is the 15,000 number has not been vetted?" Nevada Secretary of State Chief Deputy C. Murphy Hebert asked in the August meeting.

"I probably wouldn't use the sentence, It hasn't been vetted,'" Homeland Security Secretary Kimberley Vogt said. "Because definitely we've done something with it to get down to 15,000. So I wouldn't say that. But it hasn't had a full manual review of each one." She also stated that they were not saying that only 185 people on the voter roll were noncitizens, but that those 185 definitely were. But that was wrong too.

"As for the 185 individuals, our records indicate that they were citizens," Nevada Deputy Attorney General Greg Ott wrote in a letter to DHS this week. "You have provided nothing of substance to suggest otherwise."

More: The 747 slowly wheeled to a stop last night on the tarmac of Joint Base Andrews, just outside Washington. Portable stairs were put in position, while a red carpet was unfurled and lined by both American and Chinese soldiers in dress uniforms. After a few minutes, Chinese President Xi Jinping appeared at the aircraft door. He paused and waved. Waiting below, staring up expectantly, was President Trump.

It was a remarkable act of deference. By tradition, American presidents don't make the 12-mile trip to the base to greet a foreign leader. They instead wait at the White House, backed by the grandeur and power of the executive mansion. But not this time.

Xi did not display the same level of hospitality when Trump visited Beijing in May, and the U.S. president's gesture suggested that he will take a conciliatory role during the closely watched summit between the leaders of the world's foremost superpowers. Trump is not expected to push Xi on core issues, including the pace of artificial-intelligence development, Taiwan's defense, and China's support for Iran in its war with the United States.

It was not that long ago when Trump, a self-styled international bully, could credibly claim to "run the country and the world." But he seems far smaller on the global stage now.

Will these stay longer than the first batch he brought?

It's the exact same deal we already had from back in the 1950s. Nothing changed.

Yeah, that was the joke...

Patel's FBI has really screwed the pooch.

More: The data breach could be massively significant and may have all sorts of national security and counterintelligence implications. Criminals from the same ecosystem as ShinyHunters have previously used hacked data like phone records to track, intimidate, and harass the FBI agents investigating them. The highly sensitive data could also be a boon to foreign intelligence agencies who want to better understand how one of the most important law enforcement and intelligence agencies in the U.S. operates. And if the data fell into the hands of more criminals, FBI agents and their spouses could face serious threats to their safety.

The representative provided 404 Media with a sample appearing to contain the personal data of 5,000 FBI employees. That data included an alleged address, phone number, date of birth, and in some cases details on their spouse.

404 Media put some of the sample phone numbers into open source intelligence tool OSINT Industries and found they did correspond to people with the same name as listed in the sample file. 404 Media also searched some of the records through compromised data tool Darkside, made by cybersecurity company District 4. That revealed some of the phone numbers are associated with U.S. Department of Justice personnel.

They still haven't rebuilt our refining capacity to what it was pre-Katrina (and subsequent hurricanes) but now we're going to fix the obscenely wealthy Saudi's stuff for them. We won't survive two more years of this.

More: "You're making Vladimir Putin proud. State run Media," political commentator Brian Krassenstein wrote.

"Why would I let your state media track my data?" another user asked. A third wrote: "I'd rather launch my phone into the sun than install a government propaganda app."

Other critics responded with memes, including one showing Trump's face superimposed on that of a North Korean state television broadcaster.

More: All politics are identity politics. Republicans have long mocked this notion, treating the very concept of "identity politics" as a left-wing fixation. In reality, the GOP's success is entirely due to the cheapest form of identity politics: For decades, but especially now, they have worked to distract voters from the party's ruinous policies with appeals to their identity as white, provincial and, most importantly, Christian. This campaign has been enormously successful. White evangelicals have been the backbone of the GOP for decades not because they love tax cuts for the rich and environmental degradation, but because they have been told, repeatedly, that Democrats are demonic and there is no such thing as a liberal Christian.

This is why there's a growing panic in the Republican ranks over the campaign of James Talarico, the Democratic nominee for the U.S. Senate in Texas, and it's not just fear that he could beat Ken Paxton, the state's Republican attorney general. Win or lose, Talarico " a seminary student-turned-politician " embodies an existential threat to the right's long-standing myth that to be Christian must necessarily mean voting Republican.

"As a young evangelical we were taught repeatedly and clearly: It is not possible to be a Christian and a Democrat," Brad Onishi, a research associate at the University of California, Berkeley and co-host of the "Straight White American Jesus" podcast, told me. "But candidates like Talarico are changing that. His theological acumen and keen ability to use the language of the New Testament to disarm bad-faith religious attacks is showing a new way forward."

Right before I got out of the USMC they were transitioning from shined all leather combat boots, which weren't the best but were tried and true, to synthetic material boots that looked like they'd fall apart after about a week in the field. Glad I didn't have to make that switch.

Will the tourists climbing to the top for the viewing deck he was hyping up just a few days ago be kept away from the snipers or will it be a free for all up there? Will there be guided tours of the ammo dump?

Let's hope the next president turns it into a park. It'd be way more useful that way.

One woman is 0.000014084507042253522% of the population of Massachusetts. A rounding error. Meaningless in any argument.

Kim Stanley Robinson is an excellent author. I loved his Mars Trilogy. New York 2140 was a good read as well. Red Moon I think is a glimpse into our near future, fighting with China over space in general but access to the moon in particular.

Guess I need to read this one too.
