Burke also denied, for a second time, multiple requests to have expert testimony submitted on ethics — in response, recall, to a two-year inquiry that lacked procedural safeguards because the judges conducting it said it was “not adversarial.” storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

On May 31, as I was preparing my report on the Alabama judge-shopping inquiry, two of the lawyers involved filed with Judge Liles Burke a motion to have the court take judicial notice of some items from another docket.
This is my Law Dork dive into that filing: www.lawdork.com/i/145471662/...

More here: "Isolating married white women with exceptions as the prime victims of anti-abortion laws is quite the opposite of solidarity: It elevates them above poor and Black and Brown and queer and disabled and immigrant women who faced barriers to terminating pregnancies well before Roe fell."

You'd think that preemptively declaring fraud if you lose would be disqualifying in the eyes of the other participants in a democratic process, but aside from a few voices (Mr Sargent among them) we're not hearing the outcry one would expect from this pattern of behavior by GOPer pols. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

For many years, climate change was treated as a problem of rising sea levels and temperatures. Only coastal cities and super hot places would suffer — others could even gain, right? Guess what: Porto Alegre is 120km from the coast, with LA-style temperatures — and it is now underwater.

According to this poll released today, immigration isn’t the top issue — it’s the sixth.
Americans care more about threats to democracy and health care, and almost as much about gun violence.
Is the @nytimes.com following the Will of the People, writing as much about those issues as the border?

When I tweeted this stuff the other day, Dataminr was the tool I was thinking about. It’s highly manipulable. DHS will pull tweets about “outside agitators,” paraphrase them & email 5,000 police, who then feed that back the press, now with that real “intelligence” feel. It’s rumor laundering.
