Congratulations to the new leadership of the Democratic Governors Association.

Democratic governors stand between the chaotic Trump regime and the people.

Hold and Flip! Let’s elect more of them in the Midterm.

On Tuesday morning I am arguing an important campaign finance case in the Supreme Court. I will be off line until that is over. In the meantime, stay informed about what else is happening to democracy in court by following @democracydocket.com and visiting www.democracydocket.com

Be back soon!

More irreversible damage being planned by the Trump regime... It's a race to see how much he can do before he is removed because it won't matter if the Democrats retake power when there is nothing left to protect.
Trump is considering demolishing 4 historic Washington buildings, incl those that housed the Dep of Housing and VOA, per former gov official

WH is independently soliciting bids to recommend demolition of the historic buildings, w/o input of the General Services Administration.

犬殺し女のクビの話、後釜は今年いっぱいで任期が切れるバージニア州知事グレン・ヤングキンではないかという話が流れている。

先の特別選挙で、バージニア州は州知事選で現職副知事を大差で破った民主党候補のスパンバーガー氏を筆頭に民主党候補者らに大きく票が流れて、共和党支持層がガタガタしてるのを見せつけた。ヤングキンは州警察らがICEによる移民取り締まりと追放オペに加担するよう決めたが、新知事はこれをやめさせると公約していた。
犬殺し女がクビになりそうだという話が、そろそろ、メディアにあちこち出てきている。公費使って、不倫旅行とかしてるからな。

犬殺し女が消えるのは構わないが、あの女の後任がもっとひどいのになる可能性は極めて高いので、気を抜けない。記事は次へ。
ICE が移民狩りの最中に、抵抗していないラティーノの男性に犬をけしかけ、泣き叫ぶ子供の目の前で犬がその男性の脇腹に噛みつき大怪我を負わせたのに拘束後に適切な医療措置が施されていなかった問題(ボディカメラの記録から、その男性は抵抗をしていなかったことがわかっている)と、さらに、ICEが議員の1人にペッパースプレーをぶちまけた問題で、政権内外で批判と警戒が高まっており、

整形肌荒れサイボーグ顔犬殺し女が近いうちクビになるかも、という噂が流れている。

ヘグセスが先かノームが先か。どっちが先でもいいから、さっさと消えて、さらに違法行為で起訴されて牢屋に入ってほしい。

Schenck has left his former anti-abortion movement, changed his views on abortion, and now identifies as a progressive evangelical voice. He regrets his efforts to influence the Supreme Court, stating, “I believe we … compromised the high court’s promise to administer equal justice.” /end

Schenck’s testimony, combined with the leak of the Dobbs draft opinion and reports of justices receiving luxury gifts and travel, intensified the push by Democratic lawmakers for a formal, binding code of ethics for the Supreme Court. Republicans dismissed Schenk’s allegations as hearsay. /5

The wealthy donors used social events, gifts and travel to sway the justices’ opinions. Schenck also alleged that a donor couple, who were close with Justice Samuel Alito, informed him of the outcome of the 2014 case Burwell v. Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc., weeks before it was publicly announced. /4

Schenk described a decades-long effort, referred to as “Operation Higher Court,” which ran from the late 1990s until around 2018, aimed at cultivating relationships with conservative justices. Schenck recruited wealthy donors as “stealth missionaries” to get close to a designated justice. /3

Schenck was the founder and former lead missionary for the ministry known as Faith and Action in the Nation’s Capital, which later became Faith & Liberty. He has since broken with the conservative Christian movement and is the founding president of The Dietrich Bonhoeffer Institute. /2

They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

ICE

Without a warrant

Aimed rifles at university students

No warrant

They should have been stopped at the gate

Illegal activities must be stopped before they get on private property

People have rights!
ICE stormed a residence hall at Augsburg University, detained an undergrad, and aimed rifles at students and staff then admitted they had no warrant to be on campus.

This is state violence. This is terror. And this is exactly what Trump’s America unleashes on our communities.
