The flaw in America is always racism.
I truly believe that when a majority of White America puts racism and inequality firmly in our past, we will fulfill the promise of America.

The SAVE America Act would impose outrageous voter suppression requirements on American citizens.
One example: married women who take their spouse’s name & whose last name may not match their birth certificate. Do they not get to vote?
This bill is DOA in the Senate.

Jamie you mean white with no accomplishments. I mean David Hogg has pretty much admitted as long as you are white, have a penis preferably & repeat bullshit talking points fed to you by other mediocre white men that makes you "electable."🙄
"Electability" has become a weapon used against candidates who don't fit a certain mold. @colinallredtx.bsky.social and I are unpacking this issue and why Texas—and America—deserves better. Don't miss this important conversation.

Also file under "activists are financially incentivized never to achieve victory" and the left is first and foremost an activist group.
They need every day to be horrible because then they remain relevant.
That's why they fight Democrats more than Republicans. Normalcy is bad for membership.

Super enjoyed the Bob Dylan quote to lead off!
In addition to ripping Hegseth to shreds and ruling for Sen Kelly, Judge Leon communicates a sort of direct popular outrage with different unusual stylistic passages in his opinion, including the line from Subterranean Homesick Blues "you dont need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows."

![UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA
MARK KELLY,
Plaintiff,
Civil Case No. 26-81 (RJL)
V.
PETE HEGSETH, et al.,
Defendants.
MEMORANDUM OPINION
February 12, 2026 [Dkt. #2]
United States Senator Mark Kelly, a retired naval officer, has been censured by
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth for voicing certain opinions on military actions and
policy. In addition, he has been subjected to proceedings to possibly reduce his retirement
rank and pay and threatened with criminal prosecution if he continues to speak out on these
issues.
Secretary Hegseth relies on the well-established doctrine that military
servicemembers enjoy less vigorous First Amendment protections given the fundamental
obligation for obedience and discipline in the armed forces. Unfortunately for Secretary
Hegseth, no court has ever extended those principles to retired servicemembers, much less a retired servicemember serving in Congress and exercising oversight responsibility over
the military. This Court will not be the first to do so!](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:36eqtmzysqf7wsslczw4uxcd/bafkreiclbgaenrhgnor6zvmnfql4d3olwzqp7zikm3maum5ylc4m6epys4@jpeg)
