“Why won’t Zohran Mamdani denounce a dangerous slogan?” asks a headline in the Atlantic. Meanwhile, Andrew Cuomo isn’t asked to denounce a dangerous war criminal whose legal team he joined.

one way to make sense of the position of the republicans on the supreme court is that they do not believe there is such a thing as a legitimate objection to the actions of a republican president, no matter how deranged, depraved, or anti-constitutional www.stevevladeck.com/p/161-the-co...

The politician who blew $60 million of taxpayer money on his sexual harassment defense wants to take the police force that blew $206 million of taxpayer money on settlements in 2024 alone and give them even more money and power which will result in even more settlements.

It’s outrageous that a masked ICE thug can punch a man in the face and escape consequences anonymously. That’s not America. America is for the thug cop to be identified and THEN escape all significant consequences for lawless brutality after a brief period of paid leave bsky.app/profile/news...

Indeed. It's important to understand that the rule of law isn't just "threatened" by what SCOTUS has been doing. For a variety of actions by the federal government, the rule of law no longer exists, because the feds have been willfully defying court orders and there will be no consequences for it.

It’s wild that in the video DHS posted in an effort to make the beating of an innocent landscaper (with 3 marine sons) seem justified there’s a masked ice goon pointing a gun at a random car passing by and they don’t seem to think it matters at all

I can’t speak for every city, but here in LA, ICE bounty hunters aren’t going after gang members. They’re hunting the vulnerable: gardeners, street vendors, day laborers. Easy money, no risk. Folks need to stop pretending this is about crime. @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social—thank you for your words.

It's becoming increasingly clear is that the right wing of this Supreme Court is extreme even among federal courts. The district courts and appellate courts keep appropriately halting this shit, expressing appropriate outrage, and trying to hold the line. Then SCOTUS blows it all up.

Here’s a more legible version of Trump’s bizarre “ceasefire” announcement. One thing I’ll add is that what we’ve observed from Israel’s behavior in Gaza over the past 15 years is Israel accelerates damage intensity in advance of ceasefire deadlines—so the chance of this going sideways is quite high.

DISASTROUS. This means they will send people to horrific situations with no due process — in direct violation of promises the Solicitor General made to the Court in previous cases. This greenlights sending people to be enslaved in Libya or tortured in any random foreign country.
