Well, I am an artist, dog-lover, and avid reader. I also adore cats. I am a feminist. I'm a wee bit cranky as befits my time in life. Definitely not into living under a dictatorship. Pronouns: she/her.

I know it feels pretty scary right now, but Trump is increasingly unmoored and desperate. That’s an indication of weakness, not strength. We are the ones with strength. The chicken guy has a sign that reads, “We will outlast Trump” and he’s right.

Wait a second, Porter stayed and answered 20 more minutes of questions after the viral video snippet? Then outside of everyone who talks about politics online being frustrated theater critics, why are we having this conversation? www.nytimes.com/2025/10/08/u...

Her campaign spokesman, Nathan Click, pointed out that Ms. Porter answered questions from Ms. Watts for another 20 minutes after the viral exchange. A CBS spokesperson said on Wednesday that Ms. Porter stayed for the full interview.

Trump (1) reveals he doesn't know what habeas corpus is and (2) punts to Noem, who famously revealed her own ignorance at a Senate hearing when she defined habeas corpus as "a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country."

Q: Have you given any more thought to possibly suspending habeas corpus?

TRUMP: Suspending who?

Q: Habeas corpus

TRUMP: I don't know. I'd rather leave that to Kristi.

Kristi Noem was unaware that the suspension of habeas corpus was under Article I of the Constitution and even if the fate of the most basic liberty right were delegated one would hope that it would be to the President and not the Secretary of Homeland Security

When I was on a jury last month, it really hit home for me just how important it is to take the standards you’re supposed to hold prosecutors to seriously — because they may very well not meet them.

emptywheel @emptywheel.bsky.social · 5h

Honestly, people need to STOP claiming this is all about nullification.

These were people who were basically pushed, IDed their legal guns, and then arrested.

That's not an assault.

Dispatch from Pennsylvania on a highly unusual state Supreme Court election—one of the few most consequential matters on the ballot anywhere in the country next month. New from me in @boltsmag.org: boltsmag.org/pennsylvania...

Inside the Clunky Elections to Control Pennsylvania's Supreme Court - Bolts

The GOP is making an expensive push to end Democrats’ majority on a court at the center of election lawsuits, sparking a fledging campaign season with little precedent or template.
