To reiterate what @kenwhite.bsky.social has been saying for a long time... the courts are not going to get us out of this mess. We have to do it at the ballot box.

Norton's daughter had been living her life, playing volleyball, and going to school. Planning a future. She was beloved by her peers and had been elected class president twice. Then her life was absolutely destroyed for no reason whatsoever by anti-trans zealots.

"leftists like Radley Balko" If opposition to a 400K-man deportation force to expel 12 million people, causing a massive humanitarian crisis, shredding families, spiking inflation, and sending the economy spiraling into depression is "leftism" ... I guess I'm a leftist. nypost.com/2024/06/18/o...

One thing I will say… Michelle Obama has been unfairly painted for the “we go high” thing as being against fighting back, which she’s not. The context she was speaking to was, like, “we don’t go after their children and violently dehumanize their community, as has been done to us”. Folks twisted it.

we need to go real low. repeatedly kicking them in the crotch with steel-toed boots low. taking em out at the Achilles tendon low

It’s fine to take the shot after you lose but try not to be a little bitch about it.

The jury having left the room, Trump's attorney Todd Blanche adjusts the mic and says: There's no basis and no way the jury could've reached a verdict based on the testimony of Cohen—he lied, there was perjury committed—there's no reason the court should allow a verdict.

Yes, the ICC indicting Benjamin Netanyahu (and the others) really is a big deal, even if the court can’t actually bust in and arrest them: these leaders now will face massively restricted movements and will have to operate quite differently then they’ve long been accustomed to doing.
