Taraji P. Henson did a huge public service calling out Project 2025. Earlier today, Kevin Roberts, chair of Project 2025, threatened violence: "We are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be." It's Christofascism. Make no mistake.

I don’t think so because so much of the evidence is not public record. Trump threatening Pence or DoJ is not public record.

One helpful thing is that by precedent you no longer need to have an injured party. I can have a hypothetical issue with Executive Immunity, slip it thru the not KKK version of the 5th Circuit, and the Supreme Court will happily change settled law anyway.

It's one of the things the states burned in when they built up their respective faithless elector laws: if the guy at the top of the ticket is there, you have to cast your EC vote for them; if they are not, then for their VPE, and if neither, then some secret third thing (ie. differs state-to-state)

I know we’re a little doomed out already but they denied parole to Leonard Peltier, probably dooming him to die in prison, all over a conviction where he wasn’t allowed to use exculpatory evidence that got two other people acquitted

when I was a child, I thought smart people were in charge. when I got older, I realized you didn't have to be smart to be in charge. but the piece that was hardest to learn is that no one is really in charge at all. no one's going to fix it beyond us.

I share that quote a lot because it helps me. Things seem overwhelming, I feel like there's nothing I can do, the problem's too big. That leads to despair and paralysis. But I know paralysis REALLY does nothing, which spirals me more. That quote reminds me how anything ever happens. It helps me move

You can look at a burnt down house and say it's pointless and everything is terrible and give up. Or you start gathering stones and bricks and tools. And yeah, sometimes you can do both. I will always turn to the Arthur Ashe quote for help: Start where you are, use what you have, do what you can.

Just quietly do it and make it seem like its a big mixup or something that somehow is only affecting Federalist Society members. If Congress complains just claim executive privilege and then pardon the GSA administrator as many times as you need to.

The US military is more conservative than most university sociology departments, but not really THAT much more conservative. It is more than 30% non-white for one thing. Officers are 20% non white, 20% women. Ignoring the Coast Guard makes the military even more diverse.

The States Project is one of the best bang-for-your-buck options for your campaign donations. Even beyond it, though, state legislatures deserve your attention. Next time you're tempted to send money to whoever's going to lose to MTG, send it instead to a contested state leg seat.

He's right, and Democrats in Wisconsin will need help! This is the first time since 2010 we've had anything even remotely resembling fair maps, and while there still is a slight GOP edge, there is a real opportunity for Democrats to take control of at least one of the legislative chambers this fall.

The fact that the originalists are enshrining into holy writ some of the only things that we absolutely know that the framers were terrified of is at some level darkly humorous, but Barrett is the only one of them who seems to have a single qualm about their hypocrisy.

They use DEI the same way. Broken down into components it becomes a million times less scary, and they want it to be scary. CRT and DEI are so easy to misunderstand because they are desperate to misunderstand it.

The right doesn't misunderstand CRT, they just use it as a bogeyman to scare people who are terrified of black people, but might have some sort of moral qualm against chanting "White Power!" Critical Race Theory's sound has such convenient sharp edges that they can claim it is whatever they want.

Trump hasn't done a single legal thing since he was 25. He now has an insanely good sense of whom he can bully, when he can push further, who is looking for a bribe, and who is too chickenshit to try to stop him. They are both of the opinion that they are very clever, but for different reasons.
