Tierra Walker had a reliance interest in having an abortion: her son was 15.

It’s really fucked up we told generations of kids they had to take out personal loans in order to improve their lives as we cut funding to schools and when that turned out to be bullshit the general consensus has been “fuck those kids”

As we enter the final month before the midterms, don't get cocky. If anything, it's time to ramp up the work and pour it on. Check your registration. Vote early. Push your friends and family too. Look for local places to help out. Phone bank and write postcards. Volunteer for Election Day.

Um, so this is why it is important that USPS does not install cameras on its trucks because it creates a governmental tracking system without statutory authorization.

For many people of color in the 2024 election, was indeed, a vote for a color-blind society. That was the appeal of Trump 2024. It was a multi-racial coalition that was like: “get over it.” But alas, the Republicans have gone in on the Vanguard of the Racists.

I am seeing quite a few “impeachment failed” responses, so I will address it. 1st/the Ukrainian Impeachment did not fail: can you imagine what 2020 would have been like if the impeachment did not expose the “Hunter Biden Burisma” as bunk? 2/Investigate then Impeach: Build the Drama.

For everyone, why impeachment and not criminal prosecution? President Trump will pardon—if he has not done so already—everyone in his Administration. The reason why they are committing open crimes comes from their confident belief in that one fact.

Government reform was what the United States Digital Service WAS doing before the Trump Adminstration hollowed it out like that the restaurant in Good Fellas. 18F WAS worried about digital security. We have major hacks of both the FBI and DOD after DOGE.

What is failure in impeachment? You know what Russ Vought can’t do when he is sitting an impeachment trial: f**k with the budget. He will busy being under the white hot lines of impeachment.

What everyone has to prepare for is the constitutional crisis to accelerate if the Democrats take the House and the Senate. Vought has been allowed by the Republicans to act with impunity, so have he will continue to ignore Congress. This is why you have to impeach him immediately.

The only way to understand why the Republicans have rolled over and showed the belly over and over again is that they are scared of the Boss and what he could to do them. He tried to kill his Vice President. President Trump took over the Republican Party; he does not like them or respect at all.

People ask me why list for Vizier Impeachment has always been limited to Miller, Hegseth and Vought (rather than the equally awful RFK and Blanche). For all three, I believe that they have engaged in anti-constitutional behavior that violates the separation of powers.

As the Chief Justice of the United States noted: The President ordered the demolition of the East Wing of the White House to make way for a new, privately funded state ballroom in its place… That construction is likely unlawful.

What basic research is in science: it is looking—for years—at the spit of toad, or the quiet collection of data over a child’s cough. I will explain it another way: it is the Lionel Messi of science. It is sitting back quietly and then all sudden: boom, a swift innovation that changes our lives.

One important thing the Democrats can do is just refuse to fund ICE and CPB through regular order. They can live off the Reconciliation Bill. I would also launch a criminal investigation of ICE with the legislative purpose of Abolishing Ice.

Professa Murray @kalimurray.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

My list has always been Hegseth, Miller and Vought. All three are have encouraged “high crimes and Misdemeanors” that go to the balance of separation of powers.

The funny thing is that Congress has the power under Article I, Section 8, Clause 4 to establish a uniform rule of naturalization, and so, could tell the White House/DHS to go kick rocks, by including a requirement to hold naturalizations every day.

We have to space from a constant eye: again, what I have always appreciated about our Constitution is that colonists had the Army in their houses and they kicked them out.

Liberty—as a fundamental conception of democracy—should not just be understood as something to claimed by the tech-bros or the Ayn Rand weirdos—it is a value that protects autonomy and privacy.

Again: for Black Women, in particular, the ability to chose, a time and place to reproduce is a function of liberty. The most fundamental fact of enslavement was the Black Women had no control over their reproduction; in fact, their ability to reproduce was a key source of other’s wealth.

Abortion is reproductive healthcare, because sometimes having a child can literally kill you. And I cannot tell you how it angers me that at the same time, Black women like Tierra Walker dying, RFK cut funding for research into infant and mother mortality, to fund his security detail.

And to my point below: Lisa Song, from Propublica has written a great piece, looking at how the Adminstration is attempting to say you can’t go and register disabled voters because of *voter fraud* but guess what: it is a Congressional directive!,

Professa Murray @kalimurray.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

Russell Vought: Ignoring Congress on Appropriations “ultimately leads to a partisan coalition rather than a bipartisan coalition.” It is not a coalition: an unelected bureaucrat is ignoring Congressional directive on appropriations. That’s all: no legitimacy or democratic coalition involved.

The most useful thing that a Democratic majority can do to the American people is explain how the Appropriation Pipes work because then we would understand how the last two years deserves an impeachment trial to remove the President.

My final Morning Note—as I watch is happening at Cornell—is that universities have spent since January 2025, running away (or firing) from the faculty and staff capable of managing this moment. The quasi-administrative proceedings under Title 9 are hard to navigate and take serious skills.

Professa Murray @kalimurray.bsky.social · 02/10/2026

When President Trump won in 2024: he won with a multi-racial ticket too. And the real question has always been: can Stephen Miller and Rep. Monica de la Cruz exist in the same coalition and does Trump have the political skills to manage that contradiction?

Everytime, the modern Republican Party has done something constitutionally crappy, even after they have pardoned said constitutional crap, we are then supposed to pretend that it was not constitutional crap. Nope: Nixon was a crook and J6’ers were a bunch of rioters who tried to Hang Mike Pence.

That's where I've been for a while. We can't even reach questions about the death penalty itself because we fail essential predicates such as "fair and consistent criminal justice system" and "reliable death penalty verdicts that leave no reasonable doubt" and, as shown tonight, "humane execution."

Let’s remind Hegseth of Casimir Pulaski’s example, in the spirit of 1776 that the Secretary touts. General Pulaski— the father of the American Calvary and hero of Savannah— was an intersex or trans Polish horseman who came to this country, saved George Washington’s life, and died for our Revolution.

Well, that is dumb, ya dummy. If your supply lines break, you create an inflationary spiral that tanks the American economy. Also, I have to say that a key problem is that you failed to harden bases in the Middle East.
