These are not mutually exclusive.

The whole thread is worth reading, but this passage in particular is terrifying.

It is literally saying that, on topics of the court's choice, judges aren't constrained by facts when making rulings.

i think it is cool that the president of the united states routinely slurs black people as biological inferior

For the record: The Washington Post is run by partisan hacks who think we won't remember that they took the *exact* opposite stance when it was Republicans pushing their own gerrymandering grab in Texas last year -- *without* putting it up for a vote.

The questions that neither Kash Patel nor anyone in his orbit seem willing to actually answer: Did Kash Patel think he’d been fired on April 10? Did he communicate with others about his belief he’d been fired?

CDC won’t publish report showing covid shots cut likelihood of hospital visits The report, which had cleared the agency’s scientific-review process, had been delayed. It now won’t be published at all, people familiar with the decision told The Post.

SCOOP: Two weeks ago, the head of the CDC delayed publication of a report showing covid vaccine cut likelihood of ER visits and hospitalizations by half. Now that report is no longer allowed to be published in CDC’s flagship scientific journal. My latest. 1/2

The GOP entered this redistricting under the rather childish delusion they were going to gerrymander, and nobody would gerrymander them. In TX, MO, and a half dozen other states, they put their rather naive theory into operation. They sowed the wind, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind

Starting a mid-decade redistricting war only to end up with -1 seats is the same fine strategic genius and subtle grasp of game theory that brough us the Strait of Hormuz.

Trump's in a steady decline with no turnaround in sight.

Right now, Republicans are worried about being outflanked on the right, but as soon as we move past the heart of primary season in May and June, they'll start panicking about the general election and try to escape. It'll be too late.
