What a pack of fools we are. We threaten them, making it clear that we may not be a reliable ally. Then we get angry that they - quite understandably - don't want to rely on us as they rearm.

Duh.

… Oh and President Trump will reportedly have a speaking role at the World Cup draw tomorrow, less than 24 hours after re-posting this message about the need to “deport every single third world migrant.” Welcome to America, FIFA fans!

Fair warning: if you’re planning to watch the FIFA World Cup draw tomorrow (and related coverage), be prepared to see and hear Andrew Giuliani, who for some reason is the White House’s lead bro for World Cup.

Note: The alleged drug smugglers posed no threat to the US even before their boat was attack. Subsequent attacks were illegal and unjustified because ALL attacks on the boat were illegal and unjustified.

As I've said from the start, these charges are baseless. It's time for the weaponization of our justice system to stop.

I'm grateful to the members of the grand jury and humbled by the support I've received across the nation. I will keep doing my job standing up for New Yorkers.

Texas clearly did a racial gerrymander, which is illegal.

A district court found that Texas did a racial gerrymander, rejecting the new map because it is illegal.

But the Supreme Court reversed it.

Because? Must assume the gerrymanderers were acting in good faith (despite the evidence otherwise).

Kagan: "Without so much as a word about that standard, this Court today announces that Texas may run next year's elections with a map the District Court found to have violated all our oft-repeated strictures about the use of race in districting."

Scathing dissent from Justice Kagan:

"[T]his Court reverses that judgment based on its perusal, over a holiday weekend, of a cold paper record. We are a higher court than the District Court, but we are not a better one when it comes to making such a fact-based decision."

#BREAKING: Over dissents from the three democratic appointees, #SCOTUS puts Texas's new House maps back into effect for (and, presumably, through) the 2026 midterms.

The three Democratic appointees, in an opinion by Justice Kagan, dissent.

I'll post the ruling shortly.

Texas & DOJ said that’s what was going on!

So apparently the way to stop discriminating on the basis of race is to … allow some discrimination on the basis of race when it’s to secure Republicans electoral advantage.

Just lawless partisan hackery. No fact finding deference. No legal basis.

Again, adding a few seats to SCOTUS is now the baseline "moderate" position in the face of this authoritarian nonsense.

The real, serious reforms need to go much, much further:
If/when Democrats regain control of Congress, the path is clear. No clerks. No building. No shadow docket. Nothing, until you stop ignoring the law, data, history, precedent, & the plain meaning of words in the Constitution. And there will be 25 of you, with 9 chosen by lottery for any one case.
Again, because the 9 Wizards In Robes, of both parties, believe they & SCOTUS are entitled by God to be an all-powerful Super-legislature, adding seats (& slashing the clerks/building budget, & making them ride the circuit, etc.) has now become the only serious “moderate” & “pro-democracy” position.
