This is consistent with my tweet earlier today and should be required reading. It is time for the Dems to be led by street fighters that are willing to engage and fight like hell. Otherwise, Trump will make 2016 look like a warm-up lap. #FightClub #Basta

BLOCK THOSE MOFOS
Kentucky’s first-in-the-nation requirement that Medicaid recipients must work is blocked
A federal judge ruled that the Trump administration acted in an “arbitrary and capricious” manner when federal officials approved Kentucky’s first-in-the-nation requirement that low-income people work or otherwise engage in their communities to qualify for the safety-net health insurance.
The decision by U.S. District Judge James E. Boasberg vacates that approval and sends the state’s proposal back to the Department of Health and Human Services for further review.
His action stems from a lawsuit filed in January by three organizations opposed to the profound changes in the insurance program for the poor. Since then, the administration has granted three more states permission to impose similar requirements.

Hundreds of women arrested at protest of Trump border policy
Rachel Maddow reports on nearly 600 women, including at least one member of Congress, being arrested at a single massive protest of Donald Trump’s family separation border policy at the Hart Senate Office Building, likely on a precursor to a weekend of planned events.

The Trump admin was separating migrant parents from their kids for months prior to the official introduction of zero tolerance—running a so-called “pilot program”—but apparently didn’t create a clear system for parents to track or reunite with kids. https://t.co/tvbGTqhZV6 https://twitter.com/kylegriffin1/status/1012697377411657728?s=17
Distraction…
I watched “The Secret Life of Dogs” on PBS last night. Really an interesting program.
One type of dog they talked about is the African wild dog which I have never heard about. They are currently endangered. They are known for travelling in huge packs (30-40), running at 35 mph, and being very effective hunters (success rate is 8 out of 10).
Look at this picture at the link. They are so unusual but gorgeous. I can’t believe I’ve never seen them before.

Scott Pruitt Personally Involved in ‘Ratf*cking’ Ex-Aides Who He Feels Betrayed Him
Pruitt Sought Revenge on Ex-Aides
June 29, 2018 at 8:54 am EDT
On May 18, a top aide to EPA chief Scott Pruitt testified to a congressional committee that she had been tasked with procuring her boss a used mattress from the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C. Just days after news of that testimony broke, the aide, Pruitt’s now former director of scheduling Millan Hupp, submitted her resignation.
But even though Hupp was gone from the agency, Pruitt wasn’t done with her.
According to three sources familiar with the conversations, Pruitt was livid over Hupp’s testimony, which he felt had been particularly humiliating. And he personally reached out to allies in the conservative movement, including some at the influential legal group the Federalist Society, to insist that she had lied about, or at least misunderstood, the request for a used Trump mattress. He also stressed that Hupp could not be trusted—the implication being that she should not be hired at their institutions.
Pruitt needs a psychiatric evaluation.
For real.
Pruitt needs JAIL TIME
