This is the ball game folks, the authoritarian green light laid out in advance. Congress will not impeach Trump. And SCOTUS now blesses him with extraordinary latitude to do whatever he wants in power. A second administration will not be constrained by Congress, the courts, the bureaucracy or law.

The Court has saved Trump, kneecapped Smith, and set up the conditions for an elective monarchy.

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.

Many states have a form of litigation privilege that effectively says "things you say in court documents can't be considered defamatory." But don't know the extent to which those apply here.

Feel like trying to do Gamergate again ignores that the potency of the first one was that gaming was for whatever reason coded as vaguely socially liberal so they could pretend to be like “even the chill, apolitical gamer is sick of feminists!” Anyway now all those guys are Holocaust deniers.

The inability of med school professors and residency supervisors to provide practical abortion training is a key academic freedom issue of the post-Dobbs era, one that's drawn little attention from traditional academic freedom groups. That should change. www.chronicle.com/article/medi...

i would argue that paying a bunch of money to be shamelessly ripped off when you think you’re going to see something wonderful is, actually, fairly true to the canonical Willy Wonka experience

The Supreme Court's action in the election conspiracy case is indefensible. But the biggest tragedy is the documents case. Trump is dead to rights on a clear, easily understandable and morally intuitive crime, and the case will never go anywhere because the judge is a hack.

They always were a consumer electronics company, but they and/or their customers always put on airs about this fact. This kind of reminds me of the Newton though. A somewhat expensive doomed product that some people will obsessively love, and others will eternally mock.

Apple seems to have left the path of creating consumer devices that meet wide segments of likely markets in their comfortable space, which is really a continuation beginning with the iphone. They are a consumer electronics company. They make what they think they can sell, more than ever.

Widespread internet disaffection in those parts of the public most influenced by Russian propaganda, the tips of the extreme right and left wing terminal online. MAGA and tankies, standing strong.

Anyway, for folks who don't really know those people, first of all, congrats on missing them the first time round, but elevating this particular selection of fascist goblins to those positions would make the *baseline* in Term2 orders of magnitude worse than the worse impulses of their first term

Vote (or don’t!) for who you want but the advice I’ve found most helpful is to vote for your easier target — you’re not picking who you like, you’re picking who is even slightly more persuadable. And having spent years yelling at both Trump and Biden, I’ve only seen Biden move on any of it.
