🚨BREAKING: Arizona Court of Appeals AFFIRMS dismissal of rightwing lawsuit challenging election administration practices in several Arizona counties. Another big win for the ELG team and our clients! www.democracydocket.com/cases/arizon...
The DOJ was created to increase the capacity for federal prosecutions during Reconstruction esp. those to be brought under the newly enacted KuKlux Klan Act.
Now the DOJ is being used to prosecute a storied civil rights organization whose central mission has been to expose & dismantle the Klan.

If you've ever wondered about this GOP being a cult...
If not for Trump, what's the emoluments clause for? What's impeachment for? What's the 25th Amendment for? What's section 3 of the 14th Amendment for? What are checks and balances for?
The baddies are cherrypicking the Constitution the same way they do the bible: for their own benefit.
still not over how we have confirmed proof via leaked documents that the SCOTUS shadow docket is a complete farce where the FedSoc justices get to unleash their unbridled political opinions and remake the American legal & economic system however they & their rich friends like
In February 1777, General George Washington ordered the first mass immunization campaign in American history by mandating that his troops be inoculated against smallpox. He protected the Continental Army from an epidemic that was deadlier than British forces.
249 years later, we have this idiot.
Fifteen minutes before the President announced he was pausing strikes on Iran, somebody moved $500 million in oil futures. Somebody knew. Somebody told them. Or somebody is them.

Spent Saturday with President Obama and New York's Cutest — turns out my first name is Mayor and I need to be doing more squats.
Here’s to building a City where families can thrive and every classroom is full of this much joy.
Kevin Warsh just lost me. He argues he's going to be an independent Fed Chair, but refuses to acknowledge that Trump lost the 2020 election. If you can't state simple facts when you're in the political spotlight, you aren't independent. You're a coward.
Turns out the phrase “America First” is preceded by the words “Sell Out.”
...maybe - just maybe - he's actually the worst president in history
Sen. Peter Welch (D-VT): "Jeffrey Clark was indicted in Georgia, pushed out of DOJ for his unethical conduct, and the D.C. bar has recommended he lose his law license. The best they’ve got is a conspiracy theorist…it’s a joke.”
SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov : “The faithless president depicts himself as Christ while he plunges the nation into wars of choice… Remember — While you pay more for everything, the First Family’s wealth is growing by billions. Because they’re crooks, and everybody knows it.”
I don't think I'll ever get over Clarence Thomas ruling on cases related to Jan 6 knowing that his wife was an active participant in the attempted coup.
Or ruling on cases related to government regulations and a wealth tax knowing he took gifts from billionaires.
It's a disgrace.
Literally the worst possible answer to that question. As usual, Republicans are no longer hiding who they are. They're loyal to Trump; not the American people. Every single compliant politician should be held for treason when this is over and should get the penalty for it, and it only takes 1.
If journalists had any integrity and courage, they would boycott the White House Correspondents Dinner. It should be as empty as a TPUSA event.
On the right is someone NFL doctors say is 6’3, 230 lbs with 5% body fat
On the left is someone White House doctors say is 6’3, 224 lbs with 4.8% body fat
If the White House is THAT dishonest about something so clear, why should we believe anything they say about anything?
He might as well answer in Russian.
Someone tell me who’s going to do anything about it
There was a time when the president inspired pride instead of exhaustion. I miss that more than I can say.
Amazing! This is the line to get into Peter Buttigieg’s town hall in Tulsa tonight.

"Mayor Mamdani launched a citywide jingle competition to promote free #childcare for 2 year olds (2-K) starting this fall
He’s working with Cardi B and invites New Yorkers to create jingles to spread awareness..."
Continued in thread 2 👇👇
Today, President Obama and Mayor Mamdani read for kids at a pre-K learning center in South Bronx
this is adorable and it’s extra funny because of the way mamdani correctly leaned into branding himself as “zohran” (it’s a really cool name!)
but now that he’s the mayor that’s his name instead apparently
Cover of Mother Jones with an image of fingers pointing at John Roberts and the coverline "Blame John Roberts for Everything"
The NYT big expose on SCOTUS today pairs well with @ariberman.bsky.social and @pemalevy.bsky.social's cover story on how ~everything wrong with this country today can be laid at the feet of John Roberts: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
Drunk snowflake Kash is still crying.
Child: I know your name. Mamdani.
Obama: What’s his first name?
Child: Mayor.
Right out in the open, Donald Trump is suing his own IRS to try to steal $10 BILLION taxpayer dollars.
I just introduced a bill that would make this theft ILLEGAL.
So Robert’s upended the whole way SCOTUS operates because he felt an existential need to protect the coal industry’s bottom line? Really?
