Donald Trump is an anti-constitutional president, pass it on.
Trump: "We have to be unified. China is unified because they have one vote -- that's President Xi. He says 'do it' and that's the end of that. We have a different system."

Buttigieg on Indiana: "The big part of how Trumpism works is to make you feel totally disempowered. To make him feel inevitable. And yet the clear takeaway from this is he is not unstoppable and you are not without power."

This is an impeachment offense, and if our press were worth half of a quarter of a shit, it would be all over every single channel, kind of like Joe Biden being a bit slow with a name now and then.
This should be the biggest story in the country right now. The sitting US President was extorting state lawmakers from his own party by threatening to withhold public money if they didn’t gerrymander for him.

Even for me, this is pretty in the weeds, but the shift in tone in SCOTUSblog's coverage since Sarah Isgur and The Dispatch took over—more deferential to the Court, more reverential of the justices as celebrities, more credulous and stenographic across the board—has been...notable
Maybe this new blog can respond, in one of its first posts, to the argument that the term “interim docket” is a deliberately misleading attempt to minimize the (very permanent) doctrinal and real-world consequences of #SCOTUS’s rulings on emergency applications?

I had missed the SCOTUSblog post about the “interim docket blog”; wanted to scream but it’s late; texted @jaywillis.net instead; & he let me know that, oh, yes, this has been discussed.
I truly don’t understand how you just accede to Kavanaugh’s self-serving make-believe name for the shadow docket.

The tech ethos has changed from let's make life better/easier/more connected/more fun to let's foist this on a captive audience because we can
I say this as someone whose entire job is finding the narrow use cases in which AI is actually useful:
All the fear about AI, all the reluctance to adopt it, is entirely legitimate, and a product of the fact that it's been foisted on the public with no consideration of its negative externalities.

I continue to have no sympathy left for whinging about how the public are rude about AI and feel threatened by it when the biggest players in the AI space have spent years very vocally and constantly *threatening the public*

Maybe everyone's been wrong about the Constitution for the last 238 years, and the only people to get it right are the totally unqualified real estate, personal injury, parking, and insurance lawyers Trump has installed at the top rungs of the DOJ.

Wait for the Supreme Court to say that presumptive immunity should apply to claims against Trump.
Remember over the summer, when Trump urged reporters to start digging through mortgage records, looking for officials who might’ve committed fraud?
Months later, it’s hard not to wonder whether he regrets issuing such a challenge. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Two Trump mortgages have same feature that led to charges for several presidential foes
“Given Trump’s position on situations like this, he’s going to either need to fire himself or refer himself to the Department of Justice,” one expert said.

If the generative AI corporations are still around after this bout of fascism, then they need to be at the top of the list to be dismantled and legislated out of existence. Stealing from human beings to peddle misinformation and attempt to hold the economy hostage is inherently fascist.
When the smoke clears and America begins to sober up from the fascist hunch punch that it's been drinking, how do all of the corporations that have sold us out come back from this?
