Justice is short for "justice system" which, while inaccurate, is very widely used in a lot of professional contexts. You don't write a grant for funding for Mental Health Outreach for Kangaroo Court Involved People.

I've heard it used by advocates. Like in a conversation about stakeholders in the justice system. Or "We are seeking funding for a mental health team dedicated to helping justice involved people". Short for "people involved in the justice system".

Yeah, I have. It included people who were not in jail but on probation, in diversion programs, or with cases pending.

I'm pretty sure they are only pretending they don't like being called fascist. Too much intentional signalling. They love it.

Man, I detest Ross Douthat and it's perhaps one of NYTs worst sins that they give him a platform for his low rent low hanging bigotry.

Hey. Jasmine Crockett was a criminal defense attorney, not a prosecutor. Defense attorneys do not appreciate being called prosecutors. :)

They still know how subpoenas work though.

I would argue that taking unauthorized money for a non-governmental real estate venture that he will run for life, ie long after he is POTUS, is not within the duties of his official responsibilities and therefore he is not entitled to immunity for this theft.

"Defendant presumes based on the pattern and practice of both Mr. Trump and his DOJ that all child sexual abuse charges known and unknown shall be excused, pardoned, dismissed, and blamed on Gavin Newsom".

Probably.

Can I pour the GDP in my gas tank? How many GDPs for a pound of hamburger?

Do they realize that this translates to "Shut up poors, the rich are getting richer and that's what matters."?

I'm sorry to hear this. I almost went to Hampshire and then realized that I lacked the self-discipline to handle it. I'm glad it exists and I'm really sorry it's going. Hampshire and Florida New College, RIP.

It's a moot point because he chose to step down. But yeah, I'm in favor of there being some kind of finding that the legal requirements for removing someone from office are met unless the person agrees to waive that process. Isn't it a 2/3 vote? You don't just get to summarily remove someone.

....of their votes. Wtf is an election worth if the person elected can be removed without process? That said, you can't force a guy to stay either. Sounds like this is bad and he knows he fucked up so I'm glad he stepped down instead of turning it into a circus.

His constituents who elected him should be entitled to due process before their representative is summarily removed. Democracy. He also won the election and is entitled to a process before being removed. In FL Gov DeSantis removed two progressive prosecutors, depriving those jurisdictions....

It is entirely possible that Trump sent him with impossible demands but Trump can wrap any indignity in gold leaf and call it a win so I'd think he'd try a little harder to find a way out. However, he does get to blame Vance if he wants to, so that's fun. I also bet Vance does suck at negotiating

This. Politically speaking giving Vance the keys lmight be an advantage for the GOP but I'm worried that Nazi grandpa is going to drive this car straight into a pole at top speed.

We need to find a way to extricate our position from Israel. No matter what we eventually agree to, premising our safety and stability on Netanyahu's willingness to follow a truce agreement is a recipe for failure.

I don't think we should be in a cease fire that depends on Israel complying with a cease fire. We need our own thing that they don't get to just fuck up for us if Netanyahu feels needy or whatever. We can barely handle our own shit.
