Here it is in open view. If you believe that you & your allies can not & will not lose an election--at all--under any circumstances--you do not believe in democracy. You do not believe in free & fair elections. You do not care about what voters -- US citizens -- want. You care only about power.

A reminder of how Trump responded when a supporter broke into Nancy Pelosi's home and brutally attacked her husband with a hammer:

If you're any other Democrat what I would suggest is like "Violence has no place in our politics. I hope this is a WAKE UP CALL for Trump, that saying things like an assassin trying to kill Nancy Pelosi was a hoax, that nazis in Charlottesville were 'very fine people,' that" and just go on

💯💯💯

No one in America has done more to normalize the idea of political violence than the man who was the target of it tonight. There is no contradiction in deploring what happened and saying that any Republican who supports Trump has forfeited the right to be heard on the subject.

Biden seemed solid tonight. A good normal president who is knowledge about foreign affairs and economic issues and isn’t a convicted rapist, criminal, and sociopath.

I'm absolutely loving the mental image conjured by describing the behavior of the likes of John Roberts as "digging through the trash bins of history like racist raccoons looking for leftover oppression". Really wish I'd developed the skills to draw that.

turns out my state is having a contest on "I Voted" sticker designs, and I would like to show you the most metal one by a middle schooler:

The last line of the pledge of allegiance is literally “with liberty and justice for all,” so that was a lie too then

The Supreme Court foldsradleybalko.substack.com Faced with the most potent threat to democracy in more than a century, our most revered institution didn't just fail to hold, it aligned itself with the threat

Can’t get over that the Supreme Court and GOP has gone to these lengths to insulate a man from prosecution who has already been convicted of numerous crimes and been shown to be an absolute POS at every opportunity. Like, this is the guy you’re risking it all for? How? It’s frying my mind

maybe seizing and arresting the Supreme Court majority for aiding and abetting an attempt to overthrow the U.S. government can be a "core constitutional duty" and an "official act," why not

Worst case scenario our antifa super soldier army (BLM marches, J6, Covid vaccines, immigration, inflation) “handles” the election (again.) Chill the heck out, everyone.

What Frum said. Biden is old and did not perform well, but the reason for the crisis is Republicans backing an authoritarian who attempted a coup. The fate of American democracy cannot and must not depend on one party always winning elections.

I wish I was smart enough to have come up with the unified legal theory that when Democrats want to do good things, that's tyranny. And when Republicans want to do bad things, that's freedom.

For years, the right wing justices have seen many things—union organizing, environmental regulations, voting rights—as harbingers of tyranny. But a legal theory that would lead to actual tyranny didn’t sound so bad to them. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
