If the Supreme Court makes you mad keep in mind that within the last week Democratic senators have been voting for GOP judges to get on the federal bench

Respectfully, I think this is a naive view of judges. I also think this is a correct interpretation of what SCOTUS is doing, which has the downstream effect of emboldening the worst judges to be worse
The reason the judiciary functions is because judges understand that despite everyone being human beings who hold grudges and have stupid opinions and peccadilloes and flaws, there is a sense that you have to justify what you're doing on more than "because I say so."
This Court is undermining that.

I’m sorry but literally the price of cigarettes alone makes this impossible
If you're willing to accept 1960s living standards, you can absolutely afford to support a 2025 family on a single 2025 income. People just don't want to do that.

Providing yet further support for my proposal that anyone who loses the presidential election should be thrown into the mouth of a volcano and fuck off forever
Hillary Clinton blames TikTok and “totally made up” videos for young people’s views on Israel and Palestine.
She says social media influenced “not just the usual suspects” but also “young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand.”

Which is why we need political leaders coming out and saying “Trump won’t be here forever. We will protect you. And we will vigorously prosecute not only those giving the orders, but also those who execute them.”
Pretending that the state of exception can be resolved by deciding that orders is 'presumptively' lawful is educated foolishness.
The 'presumptive' lawfulness of those orders will be a political, not legal, question, decided when you are in the docket, not when you are firing the rocket.

Their ideology is explicitly that they want to make sure we’re on the floor, they’re in the middle with their boots on our necks, and there’s no ceiling for their billionaire corporate overlords at the top. It’s a perfect dem tagline. It’s not meaningless, it expresses exactly what they stand for.
No value, no villain, no vision. Sounds like the tagline for the earnings call of a collapsing appliance retailer

The president can pardon criminal contempt in federal court.
Judges and the centrist lawyer types at places like @democracyforward.org should have long ago mapped out a strategy to get Noem in jail for lying and ignoring the law. I fear they don’t have one even now.

Time to stop writing, & reporting a "possibility". The people need to see charges. Consequences. Done with threatening this without actually doing it. No such latitude for immigrants. Legitimate allowances offering protection asylum seekers, denied

Unpopular opinion: Yes, it's bullshit that Ghislane Maxwell is getting better treatment in prison than everyone else because she praised Trump. But it's much bigger bullshit that incarcerated people are treated so horrifically that toilet paper is considered a privilege.

I’m calling for a complete and total ban on Kennedys until we figure out what the hell is going on
this doesn’t go far enough. ireland must take the kennedys back. yes, all of them. i don’t care if caroline and joe jr jr jr or whatever he’s called are okay, we can’t leave anything to chance
neither of these people should ever work in journalism again and New York magazine should reexamine everything she ever wrote
RFK should, of course, never work anywhere at all

Please stop using language that suggests that people with criminal records are appropriate targets for this administration's violence. One in three adults has a criminal record. Stop playing sacrifice games with fascists. Stop surrendering entire categories of people in your own mind.

A lot of people are going to walk away from the Ghislaine Maxwell coverage with the impression that our prison system isn’t punitive enough but I’d say it highlights how most everyone else is treated with *deliberate* cruelty.
