Religious-right figure Rick Joyner warned in a Facebook post Tuesday that judges who “interfere” with President Donald Trump’s executive orders may be pushing the U.S. toward “another civil war.” It’s just the latest of many examples of right-wing Christian leaders and media amplifying Trump’s complaints about courts that are stepping in to slow and stop Trump administration actions that violate the Constitution or federal law. 

In his Facebook post, Joyner gave lip service to the importance of an independent judiciary but then suggested that judges’ actions to pause Trump’s orders are “an encroachment on the Legislative Branch” and “an end run around the democratic will of the people.” 

“SCOTUS can begin to reduce this and avoid a major Constitutional Crisis, or even another civil war, by how they decide some of the cases before them,” Joyner wrote. “They can begin to bring a desperately needed restraint on the Judicial Branch that has gotten very far outside of its lane.” 

Joyner has a habit of talking about civil war. During Trump’s first months in office in 2017, Joyner warned that if the Supreme Court struck down Trump’s efforts to ban immigrants and refugees from several predominantly Muslim nations, it could lead to civil war and martial law. In 2019, he said Christians should be establishing militias to prepare for civil war. A month before the 2020 election, he told viewers that they shouldn’t worry too much about the coming civil war because the violence and bloodshed would be mostly confined to the “inner cities.”

We can't change the past, but we can work in the present to make a better future. In this case, dedicated conservationists are working to bring the takahē, a rare bird endemic to Aotearoa (New Zealand), back from the brink of extinction.

Like so many other island birds around the world, the takahē's numbers plummeted due to overhunting, habitat destruction, and the introduction of invasive species like rats and domestic cats. The lattermost have been especially detrimental to reintroduction efforts due to predation on takahē and their eggs. Removal of these non-native species from the birds' habitat allows them to have a much better chance of success.

There are now 500 takahē; most are still in captivity, but reintroduction efforts mean these colorful birds are now back in the wild in small numbers. This is a boon not only for the takahē but for the Ngāi Tahu tribe of Māori, who have lived alongside this species since their arrival centuries ago.

Takahē are not out of the proverbial woods yet. Numbers in the wild are hardly sustainable, and invasive animals still threaten their survival. But their return to their native habitat is an important step forward in undoing the colonial damage to island ecosystems on Aotearoa.

The IRS Free File pilot program helped 140K taxpayers save $5.6M in tax filing costs in 2024. The program was supposed to be expanded, but now Trump is looking to gut it. This is a huge handout to the tax prep industry that has lobbied for years to prevent free tax filing.

Stephen Miller:

"Children will be taught to love America. Children will be taught to be patriots. Children will be taught civic values for schools that want federal taxpayer funding. So as we close the Dept of Education and provide funding to states, we're going to make sure these funds are not being used to promote communist ideology."

That's really culty
