Self-deprecating handle (say it a few times fast). Pro-democracy. Focused on SCOTUS and the federal judiciary, but not exclusively so. Relentlessly cynical. Sometime semi-serious collector of inexpensive first editions.

Too many are satisfied with what we have.

We can't organize around "affordability". That's not going to bring our country back. We need politicians who understand that. And to get that, we need a movement that seeks to push politicians in the right direction, instead of just supporting Dems no matter what.

We 'as a society' don't want to. It's a minority of bloodthirsty, anti-life judges and prosecutors who do, and they won't listen. So hell with that guy.

But if the only 'culture' you mean is to sit on top simply by accident of birth and the right color skin...whining IS your culture.

Most mayors and governors have little to no real control of their police forces. It's a terrifying reality.

It also all looks like an attempt to divide and generate violence just before the election. I don't think it will work—not at the scale they need—but they will keep trying.

Will block anyone posting video here. No thank you. I didn't watch Nick Berg's execution. I didn't need to see the entire video of George Floyd's murder to know it was wrong. And I've got no interest in watching this. Late stage Roman emperor stuff.

Posting video of the execution, if it occurs, will be an insta-block. If you need to see it, you can find it elsewhere. Not here please.

I ask again, why are national Dems letting Elon "quietly" fund these races? We have two test cases. 2024 when Dems didn't make his money an issue. And 2025 Wisconsin, where they did. Guess which time they won by double digits?

America PAC’s approach has been unusual: for every dollar it has spent supporting GOP Senate candidates, it has spent almost three dollars attacking Democrats.

It's impressive how manufacturers have developed them to only chirp in the middle of the night during deep sleep cycles. How do they detect the alpha waves of the household so reliably?

Pryor and "failure to initiate an investigation" are old friends. (And I remain convinced that Pryor's writeup of Judge Ross' complaint was intended to out her without looking like that was the goal. Far too much detail for there to be any hope of Judge Ross maintaining anonymity.)

So, assuming this is even true (and why would a Kremin oligarch lie?), do we feel better knowing that when Don Jr. needs a little walking around money he hits up a Kremlin oligarch?

But now we have concrete confirmation that Lil' Don really did borrow a substantial sum from a Putin-connected oligarch.
