I was on campus at Williams College fall 2010 when Forbes ranked us number 1 ahead of Princeton, Harvard, MIT, Stanford and of course, your alma mater Yale. My clique said it was a joke.
My sister said this was clearly an advertisement. I fully concede the point. 💯 💯
So…the Supreme Court has ruled in Zivotofsky v. Kerry, 576 U.S. 1 (2015) the recognition of a foreign state exclusively resides with the Executive. Sure would be a shame if Donald Trump permanently silenced his progressive critics and received an ambassador from Palestine—creating a 2-state solution
Oral arguments for this case are tomorrow—but the Court has a lot of leeway—the majority can rule for or against the nationwide injunctions by the district court judges without ruling on the underlying issues which caused the injunctions in the first place.
Realpolitik is here. Unitary executive theory is here. Progressives need to realize this devastating fact if political life and stop bickering over whether to support the old democrats—just support the democrats in winnable swing districts amenable to change. B4real
I’m not mansplaining anything but if we can look past the clickbait title I think it’s clear she understood the 4th amendment justifications would trouble Roe and enable its fall in ways the 14th amendment wouldn’t.
“Roe…relies on a “right of privacy” under the 4th Amendment….She prefers that abortion rights be recognized under the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment”
the last breath of the Obama coalition has been extinguished, but while we are here, pontificating as to the power and might of the Justice department to defend trans youth, why don’t democrats plan to do the same for reproductive rights? I won’t mansplain—RBG can though
“Richard Hofstadter delivered the first version of ‘The Paranoid Style in American Politics’ as a lecture at Oxford University in November 1963, the same month that President John F. Kennedy was murdered; an abridged version appeared in Harper’s Magazine the following year.” Damn what a foreword……..
Amy Coney Barrett has been shunned by the Trumpists. Are progressives going to welcome her into the fold? are women who oppose abortion but otherwise possess a reasonable sphere of constitutional domain unwelcome in the Democratic Party? @aoc.bsky.social if a woman from your rally opposes abortion??
There is no way to take this administration seriously. We have been hearing about ObamaCare non-stop for a decade and a half—but the trumpists abandoned principle the second they realized RFK Jr. can gain more power. The justices will roast the entire administration by July
I was called hitler for suggesting progressives should warn the trump administration the housing of migrants at Guantanamo bay was gonna be super duper expensive. Progressives really gotta chill.
Kendrick can say all he wants about Drizzy Drake, but he drops one of the hardest bars of all RnB on the track in which he literally pulls a Grammy outta future: Wait for U—“get mad at myself cuz I can’t leave you alone”—I won’t ever be able to leave Sarah Spain 🇪🇸 alone I love her so much 🥰🥰💕💕
We cannot concede the entire Republican territory to the trumpists. Democrats flipped out over mitt Romney saying he wanted to DEI women during a debate when he said he had “binders full of women.”
It’s 2025! Speech on social media for AOC is the same as speech on the House floor there is no question she will occupy a constitutional office in the future
