Yes, let’s create a high tariff protectionist state à la Mexico. That always works out for countries that adopt such policies.

Gotta love journalists writing about right wing racists and blaming the left and democrats for the right wing racism. Who said it? A Republican! Whose fault is it? Democrats for making him say it. Jebus. So, so tired of it. apple.news/ArtkqO6qxSVy...

Sure, expand the court, but instead of adding lifetime appointments why not an expansion that includes, say, 8 yr terms of 6 justices elevated from circuit courts. The terms & # can be negotiated and it means the court cycles between progressive/conservative statuskuo.substack.com/p/a-bakers-d...

A push to expand the number of justices on the Supreme Court is on the minds of Democrats and Republicans alike.

A reminder that politics are essential to a functioning democracy. Russia, North Korea, etc. do not have politics. Politics represents people debating ideas and elevating thought for the public good.

I teach sustainable building science to area tech HS. When kids get to their Sr year they have an opportunity to earn certs in BA-T, IDL, LEED, Passive House, etc.. The truth is that if a person has the resources to electrify it would behoove them to do so. This isn’t hard. It’s the math.

I continue to think that the US should adopt that Juneteenth to July Fourth be a national holiday of reflection and remembrance and celebration for our full independence. Juneteenth is probably our greatest holiday…and bonus that it makes maga angry.

Screenshot of an X post from @lorrzba joking that Marco Rubio is realizing he needs to become a pop star to perform at the nation's 250th anniversary celebration. The post includes a photo of Vanilla Ice - a man in a silver sequined jacket, black shirt, chain necklaces, and leather pants - seated on a couch in what appears to be a formal government setting, with suited officials visible in the background.

Obama’s red line for Syria? He went to Congress and Repuglicans said no, then mocked his lack of resolve for not enforcing the red line he had made. Obama followed the constitution.

I seem to remember Obama going to Congress for approval after Syria used chemical weapons against opposition forces. The Repuglicans said no, and then mocked Obama for not enforcing his red line ultimatum. The GOP and trump are horrible people.

“Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.” 13, 14, 15. The least ambiguous amendments and the Supreme Court stole this power from the most democratic and powerful branch of our government. Originalism? No. Usurpation of democracy? Yes. 86 Robert’s court.
