I'm not playing any game. Kamala Harris is the sitting vice president. She ran on the 2020 national ticket. She is constitutionally and politically the "next-in-line." By what rationale should she step aside by someone who is neither vice president nor has national experience?

Why is Biden only running in Biden? He should be running in Harris, Haaland, Buttigieg, Regan, Murthy, and all the rest of the people who come with him. And he’s not just running against Trump, but against Miller, Bannon, Kushner, Bolton, Kid Rock and Nazi ghouls who come with him. Message better.

If you hear next week that the RNC has "moderated" on abortion by dropping a 20-week-ban from the platform or somesuch, here's me telling you now that it doesn't mean anything close to "moderation" when it's these guys running the show.

While left-wing anti-Biden outlets have made the totally not surprising choice to ignore the SCOTUS Immunity Decision or Project 2025 completely. Jacobin hasn't done a single thing about the Court's decision to make Trump above the law.

To be completely fair, I should admit that there were a number of quite trollish Federalist judges back in the era of the Alien and Sedition Acts...so in that sense, perhaps Thomas really is acting in the spirit of originalism.

The idea that the greatest threat to liberty in the US today is the power to appoint a special counsel rather than, oh I dunno, a President inciting an insurrection to overthrow the results of an election and then claiming immunity for those actions is...I mean...Thomas has to be trolling us, yes?

The question of what "the founding generation" thought about executive power is immensely complicated. What Thomas is doing here is not "originalism" in any meaningful sense, it's just history a la carte. It's "living constitutionalism" as done by pro-Trump judges.

Just 6 pages before the section of Wood that Thomas cites to support his argument that the appointment of Jack Smith is a terrible threat to liberty, Wood talks about Pennsylvania's very non-unitary executive that Paine had played a hand in crafting.

Now let's talk about Thomas's mendacious citation of Gordon Wood's Creation of the American Republic. Again, Thomas has just said the original intent was to create a unitary executive with virtually unchecked power. Here's what Wood says about the founding generation's thoughts on executive power.

Paine helped draft the Pennsylvania Constitution of 1776. That constitution created a 13 PERSON EXECUTIVE because the people who wrote it were anxious to constrain the power of that branch. It's the exact opposite of Thomas's "unified executive" theory. avalon.law.yale.edu/18th_century...

Just read Thomas's concurrence in the Trump case and OMG, the mendacity! Thomas says yes, the President is immune, but also the appointment of special council Smith was an abuse of Presidential power that threatens the foundations of American liberty. He cites Thomas Paine to back this up. Wut?....
