NOW you think he can't win, after one shitty debate? Not the absolute refusal to stop conservatives from dismantling the country, not the aiding a genocide, NOT THE FAILURE TO RESPOND TO OVERTURNING ROE WITH WEEK'S WARNING, but slurring at a debate.

I can’t believe the Supreme Court just ruled that the president can sleep outdoors in a public space.

The Roberts court knows that it's safe to hand unlimited power to abuse or kill political rivals to the president even when a Democrat holds the office because Democrats wouldn't do it

Everyone in America agreeing that Biden’s debate performance was terrible is just yet another example of him bringing us all together across party lines. Trust the plan

I don't want some egghead bureaucrat telling me whether there's poison in the water I drink. Ideally I'd want that decided by a 29yo judge who went to a "biblical law school" and does not believe dinosaurs existed, and then to have that decision reaffirmed six years later by the Supreme Court.

If you add all their decisions this week together, what the Supreme Court is arguing is that homeless people should stop being homeless by bribing public officials and committing securities fraud.

Joe Biden and Donald Trump are only three and a half years apart in age. It's not that one of them is significantly older than the other. What I am saying is, there would be no problematic age gap were they to fall in love.

Aside from everything else wrong with this, it also takes for granted the premise that the point of prisons is rehabilitation when that is manifestly untrue. Our system, even as currently situated, could easily turn its focus to rehabilitation. We chose punishment instead.
oh my god now there's a "future of prison" startup that says it will use AI and brain implants to plant fake memories into the brains of criminals, "rehabilitating" them in minutes instead of years and I am going to spend the rest of the day screaming now sciencetimes.com/articles/509...

The 7th Amendment has never been held incorporated into the 14th Amendment as applying to the states, but if it ever is, Roberts' opinion in Jarkesy would strongly imply that, e.g., speeding tickets in excess of $20 are unconstitutional w/o a jury trial
Third and not last, Roberts has the 6-3 decision in SEC v. Jarkesy, affirming the Fifth Circuit on the Seventh Amendment jury trial issue. The court does not reach the other issues. Sotomayor has the liberals' dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23p...

If you feel sympathy for a nazi who got punched then the thing you are is a nazi sympathizer and not too long ago we all agreed that was bad so maybe ask yourself why you changed your mind and decided to sympathize with nazis

I promise you the qanon people and the evangelicals are absolutely not sitting down to assess what values they "have to have in order to be electable". Absolutely anything is *electable* if you make it electable. Starting from electability and driving political values from there is surrender.

Seems bad
Don't worry kids, it's just an awkward coincidence that major news outlets like @washingtonpost.com and @thedailybeast.bsky.social are replacing their top editors with right-wing propagandists before the most fraught election in American history.
