6/I managed to catch, just before I hit send that I had accidentally included a picture of my very good dog, Bella, in the post above & deleted it. But it seems wrong to deny you her smiling face this morning.

5/ Thank you for coming to my Ted talk, since the conservative majority on the Supreme Court does not seem to be paying attention. Sometimes the descent, tell us more about a case than the majority opinion. This is one of those times.

4/ It’s easy to say, well, no lawyers were using nationwide injunctions at the time of the founding. Of course, the country looked radically different then. The idea that we rely on “history” to support a certain faction’s views, while ignoring the FF’s most important goal is not what they intended.

3/ Federalist 10, with its discussion of factions, is a great place to start. The Founding Fathers wanted to make sure no small group could take over the reins of power and impose its will on other Americans. avalon.law.yale.edu/18th_century...

2/ I think about this a lot, b/c I’m finishing up a book on democracy (I’d love it if you’d preorder it). If you read the Federalist Papers, which all of the conservative justices-good members of the Federalist Society have, you know the FF spilled a lot of ink debating how best to avoid tyranny.

His campaign promise of this "round up" was about ridding the country of this gang activity. Instead he's grooming & pandering to them and breaking up hard working families.
