@stephanopoulos.bsky.social @kwelkernbc.bsky.social CONTINUE to hand feed questions to Republican authoritarians to lie ignore questions and free world wild spewing fascism. Make statements with data .Maybe George et al believe that the public can translate the nuances ...the GOP lies
STEPHANOPOULOS: Do you support the pardon of the former Honduran president?

SCHMITT: I'm not familiar w/ the facts or circumstances

S: What do you mean you're not familiar? It's been front page news

SCHMITT: You spew Democrat talking points every single week, which is why your ratings are so bad

Trump is engaged in nativist, racist, violent, Gestapo invasions of American communities and whose fault is that? Joe Biden's, of course. Doesn't the #BrokenTimes read the pitchbot?

Long and informative 👇. #PlatnerforSenate
Very long profile of Graham Platner that doesn't explore a whole lot of new ground...except for its detailed recounting of how he got recruited for the race which we haven't seen previously. #MEpolitics
Graham Platner Really Might Be Doomed. Pay Attention to Him Anyway.
The candidate embodies a quarter-century of raw American frustration. It’s the source of his strength — and potentially his downfall.

A court with a normal-ish conservative majority would have been tolerable. I'm not eager for court packing, impeaching justices, and other such options. But this court sticking around post-Trump is untenable. They've already torched their own legitimacy, the only question is what do we do about it.
Democrats need to lay the groundwork for reform by attacking the villains on the Supreme Court - loudly, angrily, personally, relentlessly. And they should start now.

Bush Family Network "owns" the Roberts 6
Agree with this thread. Worth reading in full.

25 years ago John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, and AC Barrett all worked on GWBush's 2000 Florida recount team. What they're doing now is, if anything, more nakedly partisan.

Fire-breathing dissent by Kagan, with Sotomayor and Jackson.
They're not even trying to appear nonpartisan anymore.
