they spent 4 years studiously avoiding confrontations with the supreme court because they have no interest in court reform. they’re quiet about ICE because they do not want to a single thing about it when they have power. it’s a shitty reality to confront but it is the reality.

RIP to Todd Snider, arguably the greatest American songwriter of the last 30 years.
If you’ve never heard of him, listen to this track written from the perspective of a dude in Mike Tyson’s entourage. Sheer perfection.

look the constitution is not a suicide pact (for my portfolio)
The NYT Ed Board published a piece today w/ a few correct criticisms of both Trump & the Supreme Court, which I thought was curious
Then suddenly the last line was like 'the Court should rule against Trump in the tariffs case' and I thought ahh that explains it

The Court has no problem facilitating the disappearance of civil rights. Shareholder value is a different story.

also funny with ohtani and judge is that the sportswriters that voted for them would be the first to tell us that there is no problem with large market teams dominating baseball, everything is equitable and fine.

Important to understand this. There's a reasonable chance that your Dem Senator who voted against it and is acting mad now was in on the play. It's the same reason why they scheduled the surrender for AFTER the election this week. They didn't want people pissed at Dems right before an election.
The caucus meeting was just to orchestrate who would fall on the sword but not be up for a vote in 2026.
so currently defectors are:
Kaine (2030)
Shaheen (Retiring)
Hasan (2028)
Fetterman (2028)
Durbin (Retiring)
CCM (2028)
Rosen (2030)
King (2030)
