Expanding the Supreme Court will be very popular if only Democrats had courage to explain it and message accordingly.

I wish all figures of authority cared about moms and babies. But some don’t. Some even want you to hurt. And those are the people who cast doubt on the vaccination miracle that has allowed so many of us to live longer and better.

The fact that 12% of federal judges are Black shows the corruption of DEI. The fact that 67% of Supreme Court Justices belong to a small legal cult called the Federalist Society shows the power of meritocracy.

Also, to be clear, when a trans instructor at OU is being punished and targeted for quite fairly grading a terrible essay, it’s bizarre to see academics online debating the rubrics.
That’s…not the problem.

Here's how silly US racism is.

But white people in WV vote consistently to cancel the very programs and assistance they depend on.🤦🏿♂️

Why? To "incentivize" research these companies did years ago.

Years ago, my colleagues at Business Insider and I tracked YouTuber “cancellation” arcs. What we found is that for many entertainers, “cancellation” actually sets the stage for a redemption arc, one that can raise their profile higher than ever. It wasn’t career-ending. It was fuel.

Reminds me very much of the ways that the civil rights laws of the Reconstruction era were dismantled by applying them to corporations or by using, for example, Chinese-Americans as a foil to establish Black Americans as the anti-citizen.
Everyone involved in turning dishonest antisemitism allegations into a cudgel to destroy institutions and civil rights law should be deeply ashamed of themselves. What a extraordinary perversion of the lessons of the past century

It's cute, reading all these anguished cries: "when this is all over, these guys need to go to jail!" I remember saying that during Bush I crimes, and during Bush II crimes, and during Trump I crimes.
Guess how many of those guys went to jail.
