CBS reporter Edward R. Murrow embodied what a journalist should be: someone who holds power to account instead of capitulating to it.
Over 70 years later, his segment denouncing Joe McCarthy’s congressional witch hunts rings truer than ever.

She probably should have impressed this upon Kavanaugh before he issued an opinion endorsing what are now known as “Kavanaugh stops.”
Amy Coney Barrett defends heavy use of the shadow docket: "If we wrote a long opinion, it might give the impression that we have finally resolved the issue, and in none of these cases have we finally resolved the issue."

Federal mortgage-fraud prosecutions are exceptionally rare. The amount allegedly at issue in the Letitia James case is so paltry that it would not normally draw the attention of federal prosecutors, @ruthmarcus.bsky.social writes.
The Indictment of Letitia James and the Collapse of Impartial Justice
The question raised by the prosecution of James is: would any other federal prosecutor have brought this case against any other defendant? The answer seems to be no.

The mainstream media loves making it seam like dysfunction in Washington is coming from both parties.
Hello?
Much of the GOP no longer accepts the rule of law, or the norms of democracy, or the legitimacy of the opposing party.
Enough of the false equivalence.

It says a lot that Trump can find $20 billion to bail out Argentina, but won't help the millions of Americans who are in real need at home.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.
The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.
Read that back.
When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.
When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

Kelly: I really worry about those aviators, drone operators, special forces guys that are in the Caribbean right now striking these boats and whether or not this is legal..
There’s no authorization for the use of military force. The Congress has not given that to the president. He hasn’t asked.
