Think about what the GOP is revealing with their attempt to suddenly change the Congressional maps: they know their agenda is so unpopular that they're going to lose unless something changes.
Of course, what they should be changing is their policies, not the maps.

The fact we have secret police whisking people off the streets doesn’t get enough attention. It ain’t normal and we’re further down the road to authoritarianism than you think.

Congress Passes Blank Bill For Trump To Write Whatever Law He Wants

Seems very different from the days when Ginsburg and Scalia would disagree on the bench, but then go to the opera together.

Lastly: unlike in say, Congress, where simply shutting out the minority from any discussion is now the norm, the 9 justices all meet in person and in private (no clerks, etc) to discuss cases.
I wonder what those meetings are like now.

This is as big a lie as anything the Bush folks said in 2003. Demonstrably false.
Q: When the president says Iran is very close to a nuclear weapon, is he relying on US intelligence or intelligence sharing from an ally?
LEAVITT: It is a fact and the US govt maintains this fact that Iran has never been closer to a nuclear weapon
