I like rock climbing, the NBA, world traveling and scifi/fantasy media. Made my Twitter exodus and think I might stick around on this life raft for a bit.

The demands for a "blitz primary" aren't serious suggestions, they're designed to set the table for delegitimizing Kamala Harris if Biden were to step aside for her

Wow. @nytimes.com has closed their Threads account and left the platform after days of getting just shredded in the replies for their handling of Biden post debate. Now they're getting dog piled on Instagram for running from Threads.

I can’t explain how fucked up it is that Threads created a more hostile atmosphere to the New York Times than we did. Tony the Tiger brand humping website just beat our asses.

The obvious move after the supreme court grants the president absolute immunity for official acts is to make them regret it immediately

This seems like a good day for Sotomayor and/or Kagan to say "I can no longer work with colleagues who are using their positions of power to undermine the greatest constitutional republic the world has ever known. I am resigning now so that the President can find someone else who can stomach this."

Sotomayor could give a great statement on the way out the door -- and remain a vital public voice after she's replaced. Or she could risk losing the seat to the people she has scorn for.

This actually happened. For real. Trump wanted this guy killed and federal marshals mercilessly shot him dead in the street very shortly thereafter. And, bragged in a debate.

He bragged in a debate about ordering the Marshalls to kill Michael Reinoehl

I don’t think it’s an exaggeration at all to say the decision threatens the Republic. I might not have said so in 2015, before I saw how triumphantly lawless and autocratic the President could be, and how so many people would applaud it or at least shrug.

My friend and colleague Ken White has written a great thread describing some (but far from all) of the enormous problems with today's decision by Chief Justice Roberts granting Donald Trump criminal immunity on grounds never before accepted by any court. Today's decision threatens the Republic.

SCOTUS knows Delaware Joe would never do this, but that Donald Trump absolutely would, and especially if people were protesting outside the Thomas or Alito home.

right. the president could order troops to suppress protesters using live fire and the supreme court would extend that absolute immunity

It's not an exaggeration at this point that Biden needs to [redacted] Trump to save this country. Not a joke in the slightest. Trump will never leave the White House and spend the rest of his days exacting revenge on his enemies.

This is the ball game folks, the authoritarian green light laid out in advance. Congress will not impeach Trump. And SCOTUS now blesses him with extraordinary latitude to do whatever he wants in power. A second administration will not be constrained by Congress, the courts, the bureaucracy or law.

I hate this shit so much and I refuse to play the “city dwellers must always be humble and servile to their noble country lords” game that too many Americans still buy into.

I am very tired of the way the GOP can say the absolute vilest things imaginable about cities but doing anything other than singing the praises of rural communities is politics suicide.

In a stunning power grab that shatters decades of precedent, the Supreme Court’s right-wing majority took a blowtorch to the power of federal agencies

Politicians treat the Supreme Court the way they treat cops which is to say that they fund them, seem afraid of them, demand no accountability and allow them to act with complete impunity. Instead of disempowering them, it's some commissions, reports and shrugs.
