I really thought I was cynical enough about the utter corruption of the right-wing bloc on SCOTUS, but it turns out I was still giving them too much respect.

I wonder how Judge Cannon responds to Liz Cheney’s habeas petition. Can someone ask a Harvard law professor for me?

Everyone expected fascism to come to America wrapped in a flag and carrying a cross. But nobody expected that the vanguard would be a fucking polished knob named Kevin.

The good news is that the NYT only has power because normies and liberals respect it. It’s our job to spread the gospel of “the NYT is trash.”

Unironically, the presidency ages its occupants dramatically, Trump is maybe the sole exception (despite his obvious current mental deficiencies). And I’m convinced it’s because 1) he didn’t work hard and 2) he didn’t give a shit about anything important. Can’t get stressed out if you don’t care.

/8 At any rate, congratulations to the Federalist Society for an achievement beyond the reach of the British, outside the grasp of bloody civil war, impossible to Nazis and Soviets and terrorists: defeating the American idea.

The 14th Amendment says if you were involved in an insurrection you can't be president. SCOTUS said they won't allow anyone to enforce that because of reasons they made up. The Constitution doesn't say the president is immune from criminal law. SCOTUS decided he is because of reasons they made up.

Dear editor, Your recent article failed to include that the outgoing President did not chain himself to the desk or change the locks, which he is constitutionally entitled to do. PS- I am not a crank

The Supreme Court’s ruling putting presidents above the law must be understood not simply as a grant of immunity for past crimes, but an enthusiastic endorsement of those he will commit if given the chance. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

When they told us John Roberts was an institutionalist, they forgot to mention that the institution he’s committed to uphold is an American monarchy.

The fact that Biden has delivered on left-wing policy far better than any president in generations but is widely despised by left-wing voters reflects more poorly on left-wing institutions and voters than on Biden. This is not a movement showing political maturity, and I say that as a left-winger

Not a plumber, caveat emptor. But presuming the dishwasher drain connects to your sink drain, perhaps they dislodged a bunch of crap/crud and your sink drain or ptrap is clogged. Try one of those cheap diy snake things from a hardware store. If you’re feeling adventurous, open up your ptrap to clean

Going public with an experience like this is life-altering for a woman, so when you read these stories remember both the extraordinary amount of courage involved and also the likelihood that there are many others you’ll never hear.

The NYT call for Biden to step down would seem momentous if not for the fact the NYT has been absolutely beclowning itself on Biden v. Trump for several years now.

SCOTUS in Thomas Opinion: It is appropriate and traditional to slap babies in the supermarket. SCOTUS in Roberts Opinion two years later: It’s disappointing that you didn’t read carefully and recognize we didn’t mean all babies all the time, nor in all markets. Like not a bodega. Obviously.
