Yankee fans are in absolute shambles right now. I may have to re-rank by the all-star break.

They’ve won too many times recently and their anger toward ownership for trading Mookie Betts and not spending enough money is justified!

The Dodgers need infield help. Yesterday they ran out a lineup with four infielders with OPS’s in the .500’s. This can’t go on into August open.substack.com/pub/mollykni...

Trump distancing himself from Project 2025 is 1) a lie, and 2) indication that they think playing their hand too early jeopardizes their chances.

Been a subscriber to the NYT for 20 years and I believe this is the first time I’ve ever left a comment on a story. Absolutely unhinged shit cloaked in civility and arrogance. Of course, nothing this court does will negatively hurt a straight white male member of the elite.

This is their position on everything. Democrats can’t tell people want to do. Republicans should tell people what to do. They’re not really against government. They’re against certain types of people having power.

1/ I'm agnostic as to whether Biden should withdraw from the race. It's a genuinely tough question IMO. But I have clarity on one thing: He should absolutely not step down as president. If Harris becomes President, the Vice Presidency is empty. Under the 25th Amendment ...

this case against biden's resignation makes sense. i do think that if biden decides to step away from reelection, he should explicitly say that he is doing this because House Republicans are too corrupt to confirm a replacement for Harris.

according to Veep, each state gets a vote for president, which means the red team would win, which means whoever Trump picks as his VP would be president. And I don’t think anyone would be more upset about this than Trump. Of course, then he could just become vice president and call all the shots

If this follow the plot of Veep, Biden will step down, Kamala will run. She and Trump will finish in an electoral college tie. Then the house will vote and Trump’s VP running mate will be president

Also someone needs to write a primer on what to do about this Supreme Court. Avenues for recourse. Impeachment, stacking the court, protests, whatever.

All of this is to say that if it’s Biden I’m 1000% on board. Harris, same, my dog, same. Don’t care. Not letting perfect be the enemy of stopping our democracy from turn into a monarchy.

Ok what I really need right now is a no-bullshit, non-hysterical breakdown of our options for Dem president candidate this November. No sense in bed wetting or pointing fingers. What is the precedent. I’m sure somebody smarter than me has written the definitive guide so please link me to it, thx 🙏🏻

I think this is the fundamental asymmetry underlying every aspect of the conflict between the parties; you see it in the Senate, in gerrymandering, in the use of executive power I don't want King Biden either, but it's long past time to make the GOP afraid of the consequences of endless escalation

I think it’s also taking the long view. There are going to be 200 news cycles between now and the election, including unexpected Supreme Court justice heart attacks like Scalia.

Yes. And once you understand this on a fundamental level then everything they do makes sense. They’re not being hypocrites. They think certain people (straight white male republicans) should be the bosses and everyone else has to do what they say or else.

Homeless people can be arrested for sleeping, Presidents cannot be arrested for rampant graft and corruption done while in office. There is no clearer a summary of "conservative 'law and order'" than this.

It’s incredibly funny that Trump has been screaming about Biden conspiring to file all these court cases against him (with no evidence). And now the Supreme Court says, well actually a president can do that if he wants.

The president is himself forever immune from prosecution for crimes committed using his official power, and he can pardon anyone for helping him to commit federal crimes, explicitly including an actions in furtherance of a coup to illegally hold onto the office of the presidency. That’s the upshot.

But Republicans’ entire reason for living is THEY can tell you what to do but they can’t be told what to do because, freedom. So Trump can do whatever he wants but if Joe Biden tries to expand the Supreme Court they’ll overrule it.
