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

Under today’s immunity decision, Biden could order AG Garland to immediately prosecute Thomas and Alito for corruption and insurrection. (Official act). If Garland refuses, Biden can fire him and replace him with someone who will. (Official act) I would suggest Elie Mystal.

All I can say is that Bernie Sanders was the right choice in 2016 and 2020 and now here we are

Mrs. Alito says she's "from Germany." She was born there while her dad was serving on an Air Force base. They moved back when she was a toddler. Her parents were from Oklahoma & Kentucky. So for her to say "I'm from Germany" suggests a real deep reason to identify with something about that country

Seems like she just wants to say how much she admires the Nazis maybe?

Kathy Hochul was built by a robotics firm in the British midlands for the explicit purpose of making Kier Starmer seem intelligent and principled by comparison

okay let me get this straight. the governor of new york decided to announce that she was stopping the congestion charge thing, something she has no legal authority to do, without securing the votes she needs to do so, and she saw this as a good idea because hakeem jeffries said so?

I’m so mad I had to submit a TLC complaint to cheer myself up. Blocking the crosswalk. Illegal left turn on red. This is why we want congestion pricing! Every intersection is like this.

Very frustrating seeing some "see, voting doesn't matter, Dems suck too!" regarding Kathy Hochul, who we actually almost got rid of in 2018 by replacing her in a low-turnout primary with a progressive primary challenger. That voting doesn't matter is the exact opposite of the takeaway here

what's great is how multilayered a success this is. It won't win a single conservative voter and it greatly demoralizes a huge number of liberal voters, all while being morally indefensible and a treaty violation.

President Biden announced an executive order on Tuesday to essentially block asylum at the U.S.-Mexico border, a major shift in how the U.S. has historically handled claims for protection. Here’s how it will work.

I can't recall another situation where a district court in a criminal case allowed amici at all, let alone giving amici time for oral args. Wtf?

Is this a normal thing, @mitchellepner.bsky.social @nycsouthpaw.bsky.social ?

basically every time the media describes a very rich and powerful person's crime as novel or complex the crime can be very accurately described as "fraud"

Three days after it was revealed that this guy's license was wrongly listed as suspended due to a clerical error, none of the publications listed here (NYT, WP, NYP, USA Today, BBC, CNN, Fox, MSNBC) have issued corrections or updates. reason.com/2024/06/03/t...

So following on the heels of the Washington Post firing their chief editor and replacing her with a conservative guy from the Daily Telegraph, the Daily Beast also just axed their editor in chief and replaced them with a conservative guy from The Daily Telegraph

If you are a director of an academic journal and you find yourself contacting IT in the middle of the night to take down the journal's website to prevent the publication of an article that has already been through the editorial process, you might be the bad guy.

The board of directors of Columbia Law Review took its entire website offline because seven student editors refused to take down a paper on the Nakba that has been in preparation for five months. theintercept.com/2024/06/03/c...

on top of everything, else it's vital to remember that all these fedsoc freaks are stone-cold losers. "oooh i'm so mad, i'm going to switch out my flag" shut the fuck up you dork

interesting flag choice considering the Joan of arc flag is used by the French new right as a ralling cry for extremist views. French monarchists use it during a march and when asked later after they were confronted for being fascists they claimed they are just honoring Joan of arc. Thread incoming.
