If anything like the rule of law were in force, Trump couldn't arbitrarily increase a tariff because he is annoyed.
In important and increasing ways, the rule of law in the US no longer exists.

It is morally wrong to want a computer to be sentient. If you owned a sentient thing, you would be a slaver. If you want sentient computers to exist, you just want to create a new kind of slavery. The ethics are as simple as that. Sorry if this offends

If the Supreme Court rules that the president can just ignore birthright citizenship, then the Supreme Court is ruling that the president can ignore the constitution—an unconstitutional ruling on the face of it. A Supreme Court that makes unconstitutional rulings is an illegitimate court.

I’m not sure why Justice Jackson’s “unusually large number of concurring and dissenting opinions” are said to have “prompted a rebuke,’ especially one “that did not stint on condescension.” Comey Barrett’s “rebuke” was a choice, an act of agency.

ICE just arrested Brad Lander, the NYC Comptroller and one of the leading candidates for Mayor, without grounds.
He was conducting routine immigration court work, escorting individuals from hearings.
He asked ICE for their warrant - well within his legal rights.
This is political intimidation.

Whoa! NYC mayoral candidate and current city Comptroller Brad Lander seemingly arrested at the NYC immigration court while attending to escort someone attending their hearing.
Lander just got detained by federal agents as he tried to escort a man out of the courtroom. Lander was taken in an elevator with masked agents, along with one member of his NYPD security detail.
