Americans speak like fascism will be ushered into America with a trump win. Got news for y'all: fascists learned from your country. Nazis learned from your country. Y'all are the blueprint for genocide, oppression, capitalism, slavery, and institutionalised bigotry. Fascism is already in America.

Seven times between 1801 and 1869 Congress changed the size of the court, going from a low of five justices in 1801 to a high of ten in 1863. In most of those cases, as in 1801 and 1863, the size went up and down in order to fix an imbalance or overreach by the Supreme Court. My latest

i’ve said it before and i’ll say it again: the fact that it’s not standard practice for people like feinstein, biden, sanders, and even clinton to throw their endorsement behind a mentee and then retire in their 60s is a massive failure of left wing political organization.
