The nonprofit advocacy sector is dropping the ball on AI regulation. The public is looking for experts with a vision, yet we're completely ceding the narrative to AI CEOs and doom cults. Luckily Lina Khan and some of the anti-trust folks are trying to get ahead of this but they need more voices.

Today's SCOTUS decision means that the Trump administration may prematurely terminate TPS for Haiti, Syria, and any other country it wishes, without bothering to offer any legitimate justification or following the procedures required by Congress, because courts cannot review the decision.

@mayor.nyc.gov Mamdani's first executive budget has real wins — but as NYers grapple with a historic affordability crisis, NYC must invest longer term in essential services, housing, & the social safety net to make sure NYers can afford to stay in the city and thrive. #PeoplesBudget #CareNotCuts

They are likely to try to strike down any expansion of Obamacare, statehood for Puerto Rico and DC, anti-corruption bills to enforce the emoluments clause. Going forward, it is smart to assume that any bill that doesn't pass with Republican votes will be a Supreme Court target.

Everyone should be prepared for the current Supreme Court to strike down proportional representation bills (at the state or federal levels) and the John Lewis Voting Rights Act with bans on partisan gerrymandering and new pre-clearance. You need a Supreme Court management strategy too.

I hope today's decision makes clear that expanding the court under the next pro-democracy President is the pragmatist's approach.

This:is 💯 correct. The vast majority of Section 2 litigation (and settlements made under the threat of litigation) have been at the local level. Callais will gut minority representation in city councils, county supervisors, and school boards across the county.

Having seen several abductions up close, it is really hard to convey how much the thing they’re doing is roaming in military convoys until they see someone who is alone and isn’t white, and then jumping out in large numbers, pulling them into a van, and screeching off, all in 90 seconds or so.

No one to blame except the cowardly, sclerotic Democratic party. They knew the horrors of the Roberts Court and refused to act, depending instead on deteriorating institutions and disappearing norms. Pray we have one more shot at this.

Some legal analysts thought the Court would not be sympathetic to the Trump administration's arguments as it would reduce the power of the judiciary. They failed to understand that the Roberts Court's pattern of behavior is not seizing power for the judiciary, it's seizing power for itself.

Zohran is clearly a generational candidate but major props to his team who ran a nearly flawless campaign. Thinking a lot about the video he put out after the Nov 2024 election where he talked to Trump voters in NYC. It put him on the map when so many Dems were looking for voters to blame.

In the NYC mayor’s race, the NY Times stuck to its new no endorsement policy but selected an “opinion panel” which last week recommended Brad Lander and today published a long, discursive “advice” essay that undermines Lander, dismisses Mamdani completely and grudgingly boosts Cuomo.

Are you a supporter of Zohran who's unable to canvass? I understand, and no worries. There are other ways to do field; the most effective is doing relational outreach with Reach.vote. (To the 1K friends, allies, and acquaintances I've uploaded into my Reach acct: please reply to my text by Jun 24)

I watched large portions of this segment and at one point @mattyglesias.bsky.social threw up this slide, said Dems are "making bad press on this issue" and moved on. But the polling is wildly on Dem's side on this one! Opponents of what the Trump admin is doing with him outnumber supporters 2-1!

Matt Yglesias giving a talk. Behind him is a slide saying "Bad Groups Create Bad Incentives for Democrats." Next to that is a picture of a newspaper headline "More Democratic lawmakers visit El Salvador to see Abrego Garcia, wrongly deported by Trump administration."

Polling from Yougov: "The case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia: What Americans want and expect."

Do you think the Trump administration should comply with the Supreme Court’s order to facilitate the release of Kilmar Abrego Garcia from El Salvador? (%)
U.S. adult citizens: 53% yes, 26% unsure, 21% no.
Democrats: 84% yes, 12% unsure, 4% no
Republicans: 25% yes, 31% unsure, 43% no.

What we are seeing with immigration is simply how criminalization works. Lurid, sensationalized, often fictitious stories of a small group of alleged ‘hard criminals’ justifies horrific actions against a wide swath of people.
