Alito & Thomas, translated: “We Trust Trump” www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

Wilkinson‘s opinion here will hold sway with SCOTUS, but he’s out of step with his fellow Republicans on CA4 and SCOTUS on the 2nd Amendment. The justices have been discussing FOR WEEKS whether to review his opinion upholding MD’s assault weapons ban. www.supremecourt.gov/search.aspx?...

Meanwhile the Trump admin’s latest status report in the Abrego Garcia case translates as a big middle finger to Judge Xinis and, well, everyone else who isn’t a ghoul storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

True story

I’m running to build a new House from the wreckage of Donald Trump and Mike Lawler. That means real accountability in Washington, transparent leadership, and policies that put people first. Let’s Unf*ck Our Country. Donate now: secure.actblue.com/donate/mbs-em-launch-2025?refcode=social

Hardworking families deserve leadership that won’t roll over while their Medicare, Medicaid & Social Security are slashed by Trump and Lawler. I’m running for Congress to build a new House, shine a light on corruption, & Unf*ck Our Country.

Mike is a good friend and a brilliant legal mind and I'm certain he'd be a superb congressman—this announcement is bringing *just* the right kind of energy to 2026. Take note, NY-17!

I’ve always lived by this idea: The truth isn’t dead if we don’t let it die. New Yorkers don't throw up our hands and give up. That’s why I’ve never been afraid of Donald Trump or Mike Lawler. Right now, we have to fight. Join us: secure.actblue.com/donate/mbs-em-launch-2025?refcode=social

Roberts’s two-decade waltz to his own beat of Republican power perpetuation is now a manic barroom tapdance as Trump rapid-fires at the Chief’s feet, and he has only himself to blame

This regime is out to destroy our Republic and will do whatever it takes to ensure We, the People, won’t stop it. But we must. We’re in this together now.

Hey look at the FedSoc founder’s throat clearing genuflection to the Dear Leader so he doesn’t get defenestrated for defending the constitution with right-wing legal doctrines reason.com/volokh/2025/...

SCOTUS GVRing in light of Rahimi after CA11 already considered Rahimi sends a clear message that it wants lower courts to say that the federal felon-in-possession ban can't be enforced against people convicted of certain nonviolent felonies. www.supremecourt.gov/search.aspx?...
