The Micah Lasher campaign in my Assembly District (69) is running some of the most negative and desperate ads I have seen in my life, probably because Eli Northrup has demonstrated that he is the far superior candidate.

Not sure I find this one funny. There are people including children who are dependent on blood transfusions to live and there are often shortages.

Sorry for letting myself be baited but it's genuinely sick that they're shitposting about turning back the clock in New York to before Biden, like when they were stacking corpses in refrigerator trucks and digging mass graves, those good old days?

Since when do Americans have to act in conformity with other people’s religious beliefs? Outrageous behavior in the latest show trial in Congress.

No criminal defendant — however innocent — wants “his day in court to clear his name.” Juries are unpredictable and anyone facing a felony conviction would much prefer to avoid a trial entirely! Let’s not forget everything we know about criminal law just because it’s Trump.

Today the New York Times ran an 1,800 word puff piece portraying Erin Hawley's efforts to ban abortion as consistent with her lifelong opposition to invasive government regulations.

This is a fundamentally absurd and dishonest portrayal.

It would be wrong to see this as just a prudish or Victorian or even sincerely religious attitude about sex. It’s about control. It’s about the authority of the state intruding into more and more parts of life, and about making more and more people complicit in the abuse of power. /1

It makes the No Labels people sound like whiny babies who cannot tolerate any criticism and given the involvement of people like Joe Lieberman, that is probably just what they are.

My staff on the Senate Finance Committee has uncovered new, damning information about Clarence Thomas' loan from his friend Anthony Welters to purchase a luxury RV. Turns out, he never repaid a significant portion of the loan and then failed to disclose it on his ethics filings.

If taken literally, he wants people to be drawn and quartered, tortured, put in the pillory—whatever was done at common law. It is totally insane.

Strongly recommend this new book by Ariel Djanikian! It is about the Klondike Gold Rush—a western for our times. Hope you enjoy it!

What a stupid waste of time. All of these major problems in our country, last year Congress led by Manchin cut support for children to increase poverty, and what they decide to spend their time on is this stupid rule.

on the one hand i do appreciate that zack took the time to read rufo’s book, interview him, and give as close to a good faith reading of it as possible. on the other hand that is a lot of work to come to the obvious conclusion that rufo is a shameless liar and overall piece of shit

This idea that the government cannot complain to the media about inaccurate stories is a completely made-up thing, much like most of the conservative judicial philosophy (the major questions doctrine, the Second Amendment individual right to bear arms, the attack on the administrative state).

Another great article from Jamelle Bouie, this time discussing Wisconsin and implicitly questioning the Supreme Court’s longstanding view that the “republican guarantee” clause is not enforceable through litigation.
