Republicans wanted to make a public example of her in order to scare every minority away from voting. This is just more Republican voter suppression.

One of John Roberts’ favorite ways for big business to prey on the little guy is shutting you out of court entirely. We need consumer contract reform starting with no more forced arbitration, no more signing away your right to a class action, and serious data protection. Add it to the 2029 agenda.

Whew, one of the House Judiciary subcommittees is holding a hearing about court expansion today, and Rep. Hank Johnson (the subcommittee's highest ranking Democrat) delivered a sermon I just transcribed a paragraph that really resonated
screenshotted text reading as follows--

Rep. Hank Johnson: Abraham Lincoln once said “This government cannot endure half slave and half free.” Yet, that seems to be the vision for America that Chief Justice Roberts and the conservative supermajority of the Supreme Court envision. Where some enjoy easy access to the ballot, others are forced to overcome legal barriers designed to make our voices quieter. Our nation is now in Jim Crow 2.0. We are a nation where the right to vote once again can be diluted, restricted, or simply ignored, and where the voices of rich and powerful people carry more weight than the voices of ordinary Americans, but particularly Americans who look like me. Our 250-year experiment in self-governance can only succeed if Americans decide that the clock has run out on the far right’s attempt to overturn our democracy. So, we can either sit back as our Supreme Court continues to act without any restraint or checks and balances, or, we can do something about it. The American people deserve accountability for the damage that has been done. The American people deserve a judiciary that serves our democracy, not a narrow ideological agenda that only benefits the rich and powerful.

this is even worse than regular forum shopping imo bc it's not just that Trump's DOJ hauled Rhode Island Hospital into court in Texas, hoping to get a judge more amenable to their BS it's that O'Connor, the judge on their shopping list, is *eager to be bought* ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

It's the exact same playbook that segregationists ran against the NAACP in the 1950s. They sued to get membership lists in Arkansas during Little Rock, hoping to single them out for retribution. Meanwhile, Alabama -- this same state below -- just outlawed the organization entirely.

Re-reading Rucho v. Common Cause and reminded that the last thing CJ Roberts ever wanted to do was assume the "extraordinary and unprecedented role" of "reallocating power and influence among the political parties." Huh. 🤔

People really need to understand how incentives work If an aspiring autocrat unilaterally demolishes a public building and erects a monument to himself, keeping the monument but filling it with different furniture rewards the autocrat and promotes more of it later Damnatio memoriae is the only way

The Supreme Court denied Jack Smith what a prior, slightly wiser court granted Leon Jaworski against Richard Nixon: A lightning fast appeal. And a ruling that didn’t impede the criminal process against a sitting president. John Roberts and his majority did none of those things.

A peer reviewed study shows a promising link between flu and shingles vaccines and a reduced risk of dementia. A heroin addict who cut off a raccoon’s penis for “further study” says these vaccines cause autism. For busy Americans, it can be hard to know who to trust.

We started Reconstruction but it fairly quickly led to a civil war with the KKK that the government largely lost, and we gave up the rest of Reconstruction to sweep that under the rug. The past 50-60 years of politics has been the bill coming due for that.

What's happening in Minnesota is one reason the Reconstruction Amendments banned insurrectionists from holding office. Unfortunately, the originalists on the Supreme Court interpreted the plain language of the amendment to mean its opposite.

Yes, and, Biden did himself zero favors. He could have been a "zero fucks to give" one-term president, instead he surrounded himself by party apparatchiks and hunkered down to run for a second term no one wanted.

Thus, anti-vaxxers. Conspiracy theorists. Vibes replacing consensus reality. If there's a firehose of information, the average person cannot devote the mental resources needed to determine what's real and what isn't, so they'll just pick whichever reality feels best to them. Bad actors can provide.
