Q: Do you agree that the mayor of Chicago and governor of Illinois should be in prison?
MIKE JOHNSON: Should they be in prison? I'm not the attorney general. I'm not following the day to day on that

This week, my Somerville constituent Rümeysa Öztürk was abducted in broad daylight by DHS officials and sent to Louisiana to be locked in a detention center. She has not been charged with any crime.

No two ways about it: an attack on law firms and lawyers is an attack on the rule of law. ICYMI Austin Sarat and Lauren Stiller Rikleen:
Trump’s Not Just Attacking Law Firms. He’s Assaulting the Rule of Law.
Defense lawyers are supposed to “zealously” look out for their clients. Trump wants them to watch their backs.

The divide in politics today is between unreality and reality. Those who seek to rule the world blur human experience and smudge memory, making cooperation and friendship laughable and unthinkable.

The Tea Party changed the trajectory of Obama’s presidency, launched the careers of current GOP stars, and paved the way for Donald Trump, @dgraham.bsky.social writes in The Atlantic Daily. Could Democrats harness the same grassroots energy for themselves?
What Would a Liberal Tea Party Look Like?
Democrats might have a chance to replicate the energy of the 2009 grassroots movement—if they actually want to.

I'd love your thoughts on US Senator Eric Schmitt, especially from his time in the MO Gen Assembly. He's always been conservative, but he seems like a different person.

Four of Donald Trump’s nominees are especially dangerous to the security of the United States and to the well-being of its people, @radiofreetom.bsky.social argues in The Atlantic Daily. “The Senate must turn back these nominations, and do so en bloc.”
The Senate Exists for a Reason
These four Trump picks should be stopped.
