Run on court packing. Run on withholding funding until they cooperate with congressional inquiries. Run on legislation providing for ethical oversight. Run on literally anything that tells people you have a plan to deal with the 6 egomaniacal demigods who are tearing our democracy to shreds.

Any Presidential or congressional candidate not running on court packing simply should not be taken seriously.
BREAKING: Supreme Court allows new Texas congressional map to be used in 2026. The Dem appointees dissent in the racial gerrymandering case.

Also: An "administrative stay" at the D.C. Circuit means National Guard can remain deployed in DC for now.

Simply amazing that the Supreme Court declared an end to legal race discrimination in the affirmative action case two years ago and now allows overt racism in both immigration arrests and redistricting.

Using race to help minorities? Bad. Using it to discriminate against them? Very, very good.

The color revolutions were peaceful mass protests against corrupt, antidemocratic demagogues in the former Soviet bloc, so of course MAGA is against them
Sen. Eric Schmitt: "This is the language of a color revolution where you're calling on military men and women to disobey orders."

What if this is the one good conservative joke there is? Just this incredibly long running Aristocrats-style gag of never taking a photo of a meal that looks good, even once? And Gov. Scott Walker was like the George Carlin of it? Just widely respected by everybody for mastering the art.

Whether it is from citations, top-tier placements, or arguing in court in front of like-minded justices, there is value and reward in taking positions that will make people's lives worse off.

When those charged with upholding the rule of law speak out, it sends a powerful message: our democracy is in danger, and silence is not an option.

Our members joined the Lawyers' March for Democracy at the Supreme Court to stand up for democracy—because without it, there is no justice.

Lawyers don’t usually march. But these aren’t usual times.

TODAY we’re rallying outside the Supreme Court because:

🟥 Trump is attacking the rule of law.
🟥 SCOTUS is helping him do it.
🟥 And the legal system only works if we fight for it.

We’re done waiting.
