This will have to count as my Supreme Court term review.
I make that point that there's no point in reviewing what the Supreme Court has done because the rule of law is dead in this country anyway.

The Rule of Law Is Dead in the US
The rule of law presupposes that there are rules that provide a consistent, repeatable, and knowable set of outcomes. That’s no longer the case.

Elon Musk is targeting Social Security claiming there is widespread fraud.
Donald Trump is targeting Canada claiming there are secret fentanyl labs.
It's *all* lies.
It's just George W. Bush telling you Iraq has weapons of mass destruction again as a dishonest pretext for doing what he wanted.

In fairness to JD Vance, he's not wrong that Canada has seen massive increases in the trafficking of fentanyl across its border.
He's just a bit confused about the direction it is flowing.
The US ships 22 TIMES the fentanyl to Canada that Canada ships to the US. And Canada is a smaller market.

👀 DOJ acknowledges making two significant errors during a court hearing last week on efforts to dismantle USAID
1) It said only 500 employees had been placed on leave. Actual number was 2,140.
2) Said only future contracts were stopped. Existing contracts were also stopped.

If you were wondering what white supremacy looks like, it is when you deprive darker-skinned people in Afghanistan, who risked their lives to help American troops as translators, refugee status, but give it to white South Africans who only helped keep black people down with Apartheid.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.
