The Supreme Court is an illegitimate body.
I keep seeing posts from lawyers saying SCOTUS can’t just ignore the plain text of the constitution
Has that stopped this court before? They do whatever Trump wants and invent a rationalization later

a billionaire who sees undermining political sovereignty as an alternative to paying a relatively minor fine is a problem that will have to be dealt with eventually
Elon Musk is against the European Union being the European Union —he posted this after X (fka Twitter) was fined for violations of the EU’s Digital Services Act.

She should be followed for the rest of her life by the parents of children who died of preventable diseases.
She might not understand why that’s a question she needs to answer, but we should help her figure it out.

People think this is about whether she helped RFK's campaign but it's really about whether she helped Trump's. She was helping her boyfriend (or whatever the fuck he was) get a role in the Trump administration while writing about the election.

To be very clear, Kennedy's team is messing with a vaccine which has led to a 99 percent drop in the incidence of hepatitis B, which kills, early and painfully, 25 percent of the people who get it as children. lnk.thebulwark.com/3Xt957M
RFK’s Anti-Vax Team Readies Its Next Moves

Much like how anyone born after 1980 has never known a functioning US government, we’ve never known an Israel close to the one our parents grew up with (and yes a lot of that version was heavily propagandized).
Boomers can’t accept that our opinions are shaped by our reality not their memories.

What Hillary is saying here is a conspiracy theory and not even a tame, silly one, but a whopper. A more balefully consequential and widespread one than e.g. Trump complaining that the media lied about his crowds being big.

Sure, Nuzzi isn’t all journalists. Sure, Larry Summers isn’t all academics. Sure, Musk isn’t all CEOs. And also, if you don’t think their prominence & behavior tells us something about those professions & our National Conversation™️ in this authoritarian era, I don’t really know what to tell you.

I’d be more sympathetic to “Nuzzi and Lizza are uniquely bad and not at all representative of political reporters in general” if political reporters haven’t spent the past 10 years torching their own credibility all the way back to the full court press on Hillary’s emails.

Some sexual behavior is shameful. Like sleeping with your source and writing a self-aggrandizing book about it. RFK deserves the mockery he gets for his sexual behavior, too.
She is literally doing a book tour for her memoir about her affair. The publisher is Simon & Schuster
