In the wake of what Judge Dugan did (100% legal), now is a good time for everyone to know what she knows: An immigration or administrative warrant is *not* a judicial warrant. You are not obliged to obey it. Indeed, you can let the person out the back door. docs.google.com/presentation...

🤰$5K for having a baby? That’s cute. Giving birth (with insurance) costs an average of $19K, with women paying $3K out of pocket. 💸 Caring for an infant in the first year costs $10-23K. 💰💰💰 (www.newyorklife.com/articles/bre...) These are not serious ideas.

People spend a lot of time wondering why the left is worse at using independent media to control the national narrative. A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.

it is crazy to me that we have pundits, pollsters and democratic strategists staring directly at trump diving head first in a quagmire of a scandal and insisting that it is bad politics to make hay of it

Missouri Senate Democrats are 2+ hours into a filibuster of legislation that would gut the voter-approved paid sick leave law. Live audio: chamber.senate.mo.gov/chamber Background on the bill: missouriindependent.com/2025/03/26/m... @missouriindependent.com

This is a great point. For example, when I look back at the epochal changes of this past January, I would personally have voted not to confirm Marco Rubio

Just a legal historian here reminding everyone that “high crimes and misdemeanors” do not need to be felonies. They can include political abuses and stupidity, like, hypothetically, destroying the economy and wiping out people’s savings in 3 days.

The economy is crashing, people's retirement accounts are being incinerated, recession fears are mounting, and Trump is at a golf tournament. He could not give less of a shit about anyone other than himself.

Here he is today, deeply concerned about economic hardship caused by his tariff scheme.

Yesterday I upset someone who was criticizing Booker for not being the Perfect Progressive™. I reminded them not to allow perfect to be the enemy of the good. It's important to remember that. They blocked me but I can still see their posts & they are still pressed. This is why Dems struggle.

It's always better when you can get the trash to take itself out - less work that way. 😂
