The big problems with Wednesday’s SCOTUS order allowing a Tennessee execution
SCOTUS cleared the way for Tennessee to kill Christa Pike over the dissent of the Democratic appointees. The order from the court’s Republican appointees is alarming on several fronts.

imagine knowing that this was going to be the big day a bunch of right wing outlets were floating you for a potential vance VP, knowing this was supposed to be your big breakthrough moment for political media, and failing to do even the barest due diligence despite being specifically warned to do so

Eric Schmitt was warned about the Jack Smith texts. He used them anyway.
As Republicans on Capitol Hill try to figure out how Eric Schmitt’s bombshell fell apart so embarrassingly, it turns out he was warned that the texts were unvetted.
