![A screenshot from the game The Great Ace Attorney. A 3D model of a young Japanese man in a dark school-uniform, rendered in an anime-esque style, is looking off to the side nervously. He is standing behind a defense attorney's desk: in the background there are several design elements, such as an old-fashioned lamp and blocks with sigils of a defense attorney's badge on them, signifying the game's setting in Meiji Japan. A text box below him reads "A country that fails to uphold the truth in its justice system is a country with no future at all." Attached to the top of the text box is his name, Ryunosuke, showing that he is the one speaking. The joke is that he looks nervous because we feel the same way due to [John Roberts] and the nominations of people like Emil Bove and Whitney Hermandorfer to federal district courts.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:msvrlt3ltwpl6jdlwiqkerh6/bafkreignhybf3fot35hgs2sp3eegjer35sgckpbue47a4q45hqxy6bq754@jpeg)
I will hereby attempt to make political discourse more enjoyable by including funny game screenshots in at least 50% of my posts. for example, regarding the current state of the federal judiciary:

"the raccoons are being domesticated":
The masked burglar broke into the closed Virginia liquor store early on Saturday and hit the bottom shelf. The bandit was something of a nocturnal menace: bottles were smashed and alcohol pooled on the floor.
The suspect acted like an animal because, in fact, he's a raccoon.

The TX ruling would *not* invalidate CA's new districts. The amendment passed by Prop 50 mentions Texas, but there's no trigger provision. It's just an explanatory reference. ballotpedia.org/California_P...
![SEC. 4. (a) It is the policy of the State of California to support the use of fair, independent, and nonpartisan redistricting commissions nationwide. The people of the State of California call on the Congress of the United States to pass federal legislation and propose an amendment of the United States Constitution to require the use of fair, independent, and nonpartisan redistricting commissions nationwide.
(b) In response to the congressional redistricting in Texas in 2025, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Constitution or existing law, the single-member districts for Congress reflected in Assembly Bill 604 of the 2025–26 Regular Session pursuant to the requirements of Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 21400) of Division 21 of the Elections Code shall temporarily be used for every congressional election for a term of office commencing on or after the date this subdivision becomes operative and before the certification of new congressional boundary lines drawn by the Citizens Redistricting Commission pursuant to subdivision (d).
(c) (1) The Attorney General has the sole legal standing to defend any action regarding a congressional district map adopted pursuant to subdivision (b).
(2) The California Supreme Court has original and exclusive jurisdiction in all proceedings in which a congressional district map adopted pursuant to subdivision (b) is challenged.
(d) The Citizens Redistricting Commission established pursuant to Section 1 shall continue to adjust the boundary lines of the congressional, State Senatorial, Assembly, and Board of Equalization districts in conformance with the standards and process set forth in Section 2 in 2031, and every 10 years thereafter as provided in Section 1.[43]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:alqdxbp33ceoyly2o46nvcrc/bafkreihk67th23ahmgsomceqzbbmje3kdxqsbcsoirgbsn33bzlqpcdfgq@jpeg)

This is inside baseball, but to me, there are three ways in which this development *bears out* Justice Jackson's unusual intervention Friday night—about which there was much confusion.
First, this makes it clear that a majority of the Court was *not* going to force the USDA to fund SNAP by Friday.

Not very long ago at all, conventional wisdom on here was that pushing for ACA subsidies to be extended was stupid on Democrats’ part because it was just saving Republicans from themselves.
