One obvious conclusion is that many in the media actually believe that holding Trump accountable in a court of law is automatically political. That’s incredibly dangerous.

Has anyone ever pointed out that corporations can’t be persons under the 13th Amendment, which bans slavery? A person can’t be owned by other people. There is no evidence that the drafters of the 14th Amendment intended to create an exception for corporations. I know originalism is BS, but still…

And Trump literally runs away when confronted! He can’t handle even slightly aggressive questioning.

I have a crazy idea: if your industry can’t be profitable without deceiving customers and/or forcing workers to take lower wages through non-competes, maybe your industry shouldn’t exist. Of course, you could stop buying back stocks and overpaying executives to improve profits…. But what do I know?

From outside Texas, it looks terrifying: your neighbors can sue you for getting an abortion, the state wants to murder migrants trying to escape the horror of the cartels on the other side of the border, and the governor is pardoning people who murder protesters. This is what’s coming for all of us

Does “young voters” include the same people as 2020? Have those previously young voters changed their minds, or is this a new crop, or a mix, or something else entirely? (I apologize for not reading the article, but I can’t afford a subscription)

Serious question: I agree with you that the filibuster should be abolished. But, is there some essential value to it, regardless of other policy desires? Or is the filibuster just a shield to excuse failures to enact policies? The latter seems most likely to me, but I hate being cynical.

Also, his actual turnout was less than 10K, not the 100K he claimed. The Mayor’s office said before the event that the venue held 20K people. The video showed it less than half full.

The irony here that the exploitation is in service to an attempt to remedy the depiction of exploitation is, well, pretty ironic. /2

This kind of exploitation is so common, especially where creatives are trying to pursue their passions. Companies exploit our passions for profit for the executives and owners. Hell, they exploit the tendency most of us have to take pride and give passion to our work, whatever the job is. /1

Thank you for looking at polling data, and not just talking to 3 Trump supporters in a diner. I may not love the result, but facts are facts. Better to face them. Anyway, thank you!

I’ve been clean for almost 7 years, and I’ve watched the growth of legal sports betting with a combination of fear and frustration. The gambling industry exploits addiction, plain and simple. Thanks for the article; it’s one of the only instances of pushback I’ve seen.

It’s possible that there are good legal reasons for cutting the bond amount, but tell us what they are! Issuing this sort of order leaves people to fill in the blanks.

Certainly interesting. I’d never heard about that Senate approval idea. Not surprised that FDR and Jackson might have considered it, given their relationships to their contemporary SCOTUS

I agree. It has been literally a 40-50 year project to try to create a permanent Republican majority, working from local elections to state leg to fed. When I was in law school 20 years ago I saw the infrastructure to produce right wing lawyers who would go on to judgeships. It’s a lot to undo!
