It’s pretty alarming how the reporters suddenly devoted to watchdogging Biden can’t tell the difference between real drastic glitches like in the debate and normal fumbling

It's just hilariously disingenuous. Imagine looking at, say, ALL OF HUMAN HISTORY and concluding that the biggest threat to liberty isn't abuse of power, but powerful people refraining from sufficiently wielding their authority out of fear that they might one day be held accountable.

under the opinion in trump v. united states there was no need for john yoo to come up with an elaborate justification for torture. george w. bush could have ordered an interrogator to crush the testicles of a child, no questions asked.

Every day proves Thaddeus Stevens right: there should've been big Nuremberg-style public trials of leading Confederates, accompanied by seizures of the assets of all pro-Confederate large landowners and businessmen, which should then have been distributed to freed slaves as compensation.

yes. RBG's ego and hubris certainly helped get us into this. Roberts likely would not have gone along with at least some of the insane decisions from the last couple years if it was a 5-4 court.

The 14th Amendment says if you were involved in an insurrection you can't be president. SCOTUS said they won't allow anyone to enforce that because of reasons they made up. The Constitution doesn't say the president is immune from criminal law. SCOTUS decided he is because of reasons they made up.

It is worse than that. Today's Trump immunity decision does not even try to ground itself in the text of the Constitution. If it had, the Impeachment Clause made clear that the Framers believed a President *could* be criminally prosecuted after he left office. They're engaged in pure partisanship.

In normal times, the Supreme Court would've smacked down claims of presidential immunity almost immediately, but we're not in normal times, and there's a reason why the conservative majority of Federalist Society bagmen waited until the last possible moment to provide this insane ruling.

4/ . . . Joe Biden and his team did a great job to staunch the bleeding. His appearance in North Carolina was as a good as I could have imagined. E. The NY Times calling for Biden to drop out, without calling for FPOTUS to do the same, was the most irresponsible thing I have ever seen it do.

I don't want some egghead bureaucrat telling me whether there's poison in the water I drink. Ideally I'd want that decided by a 29yo judge who went to a "biblical law school" and does not believe dinosaurs existed, and then to have that decision reaffirmed six years later by the Supreme Court.

If you’re mad about the Supreme Court rulings today (and you really, really should be) remember that there’s a 100% chance Alito and Thomas will retire in the next four years if Trump wins, and they will be replaced by conservatives several decades younger.
