Remember, Democrats have repeatedly advanced measures to ban partisan gerrymandering and Republicans have voted against them time after time.

This is the game Republicans wanted to play. OK, then.

Read the Supreme Court’s Shadow Papers Read 16 pages of internal deliberations from the Supreme Court that the New York Times has obtained, bringing the origins of the court’s “shadow docket” into the light.

Gobsmacking to see so clearly in Roberts' words this view of the Court as national policy czar.

"I am of the mind that a rule designed to transform a substantial swath of the nation's economy should be tested by this Court before it is presented as a fait accompli."

“Another way to look at this is that billionaires have joined a war on professional administrative class of public servants precisely because of their proximity to formal mechanisms of accountability.”

Yes, the fact that I'm attending the White House Correspondents Dinner might SEEM like a supine gesture of complete deference to the insane dullard who demands total obedience from the press, BUT that's until you see the secret message I have on my pocket square

I will support a 2028 Democratic candidate for president who vows to cancel every last federal contract with this evil company and leave no stone unturned in investigating it for any possible violations of the law.

Can we stop treating empirically verifiable facts as if they were some untested fringe theory?

(I know we can't but I am obligated to scream into the void nonetheless)

Does he do anything other than appear on Fox News these days? You’d think he was a Trump cabinet member with no real job to do, he’s on so often.

Eastman was not disbarred for making bad constitutional arguments, nor because he represented Trump, nor because he challenged the results of an election, all of which are allowed. Eastman was disbarred because he knowingly lied to the courts with deliberately false factual representations.
