Sen. Susan Collins helped steer millions in federal defense contracts to Navatek, whose CEO illegally funneled thousands of dollars to her campaign. The FBI sought to launch a probe and was eyeing Collins and other lawmakers. Then Trump gutted the unit in charge. THREAD 🧵
Martin Kao, CEO of defense contractor Navatek, poses next to Sen. Susan Collins for a photo. Collins is holding a model of a boat in her hands. Behind them is a large sign with the Navatek logo.

Trump's panicking about the widespread revulsion against his Arch, and is trying to cloak it in national security to jam it through or go around the normal approval process. It's even more important to stop it now, as a test case of not letting him use "national security" to justify illegal acts.

This will reduce potential sortie capacity something like 40% and put unexpected cycling strain on reactors which were not designed for it. Basically indistinguishable from literal sabotage, if you care about such things as readiness or reliability or lethality or whatever

People are losing their minds over this because a) Stancil Derangement Syndrome, b) Terry Pratchett and c) its an economic theory that feels good so it must be true. I adore Terry Pratchett. I think Boots Theory is an incredibly interesting thought exercise, but that doesnt mean its 100% true!

If you’re skeptical of the insurgent tactics that fueled Platner, you should want the Dem establishment to embrace partisan procedural hardball, to regain credibility with Dem voters. And you shouldn’t feign naïveté about what it means to “fight” or about where *opposition* to hardball is strongest.

Nothing bad in the United States is ever over, including constitutional things. These were the same arguments rejected over a century ago, and they'll be back again and we'll have to kill them again. Con law is basically about shotgunning zombies. rarely do you get a headshot.

Donald Trump came one vote away from getting the Supreme Court to say that the 14th Amendment does not guarantee birthright citizenship for the children of undocumented and temporary immigrants, a view held only by fringe far-right nativists until VERY recently. This is shocking. I am stunned.

Just finished Alito's dissent in the mail-in voting case and... it's so stupid. Even for him. THERE'S NO LEGAL ARGUMENT. It just rests on a fundamental misunderstanding of the word "choice." It's not surprising that the man who overturned Roe doesn't understand what the word choice means, but Jesus.

I think overturning Humphrey’s Executor - during a DONALD TRUMP ADMINISTRATION - is best understood as a collateral attack on government itself. They want to destroy the administrative state, but can’t directly, so instead they’re going to let a chimpanzee drive the car and just see what happens

There's nothing to even say about this. Obvious bad faith that makes a farce of the law. If someone said white people were "poisoning the blood of the nation" or called them "filthy and dirty," the court's conservatives would immediately recognize the racial dimensions. It's unserious trolling.
