As bad as the decision in Trump v. Slaughter, which gives the President yet more unchecked power, even worse is the rubbish history of the Founding to justify it.

In a slapdash opinion, the Supreme Court today closed the door on almost all human rights suits under the ATS, overruling Sosa. A reason: courts shouldn't weigh in on foreign affairs by upholding international law -- which itself is a judgment that weighs in on foreign affairs.

What's happening to CBS News is what the tech oligarchs call "parallel" strategy. Buy an existing institution, gut it, and convert it into a right-wing zombie version of itself. They are doing this to media, government, education, biotech, defense tech, etc. Some call it the "Network State."
