This is a very important article. One that every US liberal needs to read and understand.
Are we on the brink of a constitutional crisis? No—we’re already in one, and have been for two decades.

No, he helped destroy democratic accountability in the US. The immunity decision is a breathtaking decision.
Roberts is so conflicted. He painted himself into a corner with the immunity decision.

I predict that the person who will appear most in Democratic ads across the country in federal, state and local races in the 2026 midterm elections will be Elon Musk, and he is going to elect a lot of Democrats and cost many Republican incumbents their seats.

This post illustrates why the US is defenceless in the face of an unprecedented attack on its Constitutional arrangements. If Republicans in Congress who hold the majority won’t hold trump and musk to account whom do you propose does so? Unbelievable.
We must DEMAND both Democrats and Republicans work together to solve problems
Division helps no one
If we can have a discussion and reach common ground so can they
We have to take a stand not against each other but against inaction in Congress
A Dictator doesn't solve it

Why the fuck can’t US journalists learn how to respond coherently to these Gish gallops? They are absolutely pathetic. The worst in the democratic world.
Sean Duffy refuses to say under questioning from Jake Tapper that there's no evidence DEI had anything to do with the DCA disaster, even though he can't produce a shred of evidence to back up the notion it did

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

So DEIA is responsible for the tragedy of the air crash yesterday according to the worst US President of my lifetime. I’m looking forward to the close and detailed questioning of this Admin by the WHPC. On second thoughts I won’t hold my breath. US reporters and journalists are simply the worst.
