Beverly Hills Cop is a weird title, right? Technically he’s a Detroit cop.

Remember how the "retail theft crime wave" disappeared as soon as companies had to do their annual reports? That's because it's illegal to lie to shareholders. AI is booming (if you're a pleb) but if you have money - Goldman Sachs will be honest with you instead web.archive.org/web/20240629...

Except for all the shark attacks, Amity Island looks pretty nice tbh.

Read this story and then ponder how many good apples in the police department and prosecutor's office *absolutely knew* who was the real murderer was and conspired to railroad this lady to protect him.

"fear mongering on the basis of extreme hypotheticals"

Presidential candidate who the far-right members of the Supreme Court just placed above the law tells voters how he will exercise his new powers.

Biden can fix all of this with an executive order banning convenience fees on movie tickets purchased online.

More of this, please. Stuff like this and Colin Cowherd going off about Trump are worth more than almost any number of 30 second ads the party can buy.

Lawyers in my mentions are the most in denial about what happened at SCOTUS today. They're coming up with all kinds of perfectly logical reasons why Trump's state cases wouldn't be taken up by SCOTUS eventually.

Feels weird to have the Supreme Court essentially declare the country a monarchy and then open your email the next morning and get messages from like Taco Bell and Starbucks announcing their new products and rewards. I didn't expect American dystopia to be so banal.

gosh maybe Democrats should run against a deeply unpopular Republican Supreme Court that is issuing deeply unpopular rulings that Republican presidents can do whatever the hell they want but women can't get abortions

So, today's decision has even LESS support than Dobbs: www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-i...

Sad but true.

This might be more impactful on the election than anything Biden said tonight

Sounds like a good day to ignore the news and put on the Live and Die in L.A. soundtrack (this is every day).

The thing I can't stop thinking about is this: I'm 48, and in my adult lifetime there has been one Republican who won the popular vote. But I will probably spend the rest of my life under the authority of a Supreme Court dominated by hard right conservatives. How is that democracy?

Homeless people can be arrested for sleeping, Presidents cannot be arrested for rampant graft and corruption done while in office. There is no clearer a summary of "conservative 'law and order'" than this.

VERY SERIOUS JUSTICES: The New Deal was unconstitutional and Watergate was constitutional.

For historians, the retrospective legitimation of essentially every criminal act Nixon committed while in office is quite mind-boggling. Ford’s pardon was utterly unnecessary.

In a concurring opinion upholding criminalization of homelessness, Clarence Thomas argues the court should also repeal its decision striking down laws that criminalize drug addiction (not possession or distribution -- addiction). To support his argument, he cites a dissent by ... Clarence Thomas.
