Wrote about the decline and fall of SCOTUSblog, which used to be the single best resource for Supreme Court stuff, and (thanks to some intervening crimes committed by its co-founder) is now a weird platform for conservative pundits to talk about what a good job the conservative justices are doing

Comic quoting the scripture “they hated Jesus because he told them the truth” Gal 4:16

I hope we get some real reporting on how this came to happen. Did Schmitt know it was a lie, but believe that Smith somehow wouldn’t be able to disprove it on the spot? Or was it that he really just jumped the gun in the most idiotic possible way? What was with them yanking away that placard? Etc.

This is connected to the Schmitt debacle from earlier - the Republican Party now talks only to itself using language that only they employ, everyone else is expected to follow along or have the power of the state come down on them

what's telling here is that husted and ramaswamy are awful candidates, but for different reasons husted is a dull functionary who hasn't had to run a real race since 2014 ramaswamy's primary residence is a private jet, and he seems to viscerally dislike ohio and ohioans
