I kinda feel like now that the Supreme Court has declared it legal for a president to straight-up murder people they don't like, it's probably even more important to not elect people who seem extremely inclined to murder people they don't like

2020: Of course Trump won't try to stay in office! Only a pink hat lib with Trump Derangement Syndrome could think that! 2024: Obviously a president would want to stay in office past his term, why are you being weird about it

Genuinely alarmed. Usual caveats about projecting votes from oral arguments apply. But going in, I’d have guessed that, at worst, there might be 2 votes for absolute immunity (Thomas and Alito). Now seems like Gorsuch will join them. Maybe Kavanaugh.

Guy facing felony cases for, among other things, inciting a mob of his supporters to derail a legal proceeding via a targeted riot incites his followers to "protest" one of his other felony criminal cases. And there followed a collective yawn from our media institutions.

Belatedly, it is objectively funny that Trump thinks that the false statement that was the fruit of his effort to hide his affair is a defense against allegedly breaking the law to hide his affair.

This has been the fundamental problem the political press has had with Trump. They’ve been conditioned to believe it’s only a scandal if it’s a secret that’s been exposed, so all the crimes that Trump does brazenly out in the open — bragging about them on camera even — somehow don’t count.

“Project 2025” is indicative of a broader realignment on the Right towards an aggressive embrace of state authoritarianism - an emerging “counter-revolutionary” consensus that entails a strikingly open renunciation of the supposed pillars of modern conservative thought.

As an old person who was young when malls began to proliferate, I'm equal parts baffled and sad. I guess there are more efficient ways to indoctrinate young consumers now. On the other hand, this creates side gigs for 22 year olds as rent-a-chaperones. Who wants to hang out at the mall with parents?
