Well of course. It has nothing to do with free enterprise or personal liberties

If you go back and watch a movie like All the Presidents's Men, it will really hit you how massively our country has changed in my lifetime. It was unthinkable for any of today's headlines to ever even exist back then.

A lot of you think it's always been this bad, but it hasn't. It really hasn't.

The press is intent on whitewashing Republican agency out of everything.

Some progressives & Democrats need to stop justifying refusing to vote or 3rd party voting by saying Biden "didn't do anything."

He did a whole damn lot. Facts matter. And so does a young liberal SCOTUS justice who will protect civil rights for decades.

Oh, they’ll try to muck with them, but even Orbán couldn’t stop the inevitable

It’s only one poll, but damn if MS is in play, Election night is going to be carnage for the GOP

That was back when the United States of America had a Constitution

Counterpoint: The leaked memos demonstrate that the Court was not, in fact, “doing its job”

Holding lawyers accountable for assisting judges in violating their rules of conduct is one of those doors conservatives really ought to think extremely long and hard about opening

Really hard to understand how an administration that revels in misogyny would act like this

There’s an obvious pattern that is entirely consistent with Trump’s history & his administration’s ideology

Tim Cook donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration.

He fawned over Trump and gifted him a 24-karat gold plaque (as Apple lobbied for tariff exemptions).

Apple donated to Trump’s White House ballroom.

And it removed ICE tracking apps from its stores following a demand from the DOJ.

Remember this.

Bribe or constitutionally protected speech? Six of one, half-a-dozen…

Oregonians:

To expand on this a little: one thing that playing fast and loose with the facts lets you do as a judge is lie about the legal principles you're using to decide cases

The oldest known image of Keith Richards, published around 1140 AD ...

Really impressive when you consider the bone spurs & all..:

STOP THE COUNT!!!!!!

Yes but at least they get to be smug & sanctimonious about it as people are being disappeared into concentration camps & the rest of the world burns.

And isn’t that really what matters here?

A husky mix hiding under a chair at the vet’s office

Solidarity!

There really is just so much “economic anxiety” these days

Literally wrote a dissertation on the legal construction of piracy and how it informed early modern political theoretical (& legal) theories of criminal punishment. THIS IS MY MOMENT, GUYS!

(Spoiler: piracy was often tool of statecraft in practice but dark other of legitimate state rule in theory)

We are spending billions to keep our entire navy in the Strait to fecklessly fail to open a waterway that wasn’t closed until Trump’s pointless war of choice closed it.

He’s just burning your tax money.

In the same manifesto, Palantir's owners argued that we need a national military draft, that soft power is over, and that we were too hard on Germany and Japan after World War II. I don't think that company should be allowed to exist anymore.

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

In hindsight, disbanding the Holy Office may have been a serious mistake
