My worry about the upcoming election is that not enough Americans understand in their bones that the nation they have known, their lives as they have lived them, might be wiped away in day.
Echoing in my head are the words of a Slovak friend who made a fateful decision in 1968:

I dated a guy who looks just like Marc Elias. It's uncanny.
Anyway, we're in deep shit with the 5th circuit. #politics #election2024 #voting

Today's hearing was off the hook. Raskin, Crockett, Swalwell, Moskowitz are my heroes. The house Dems we needed right now. #politics
BREAKING: #SB4 is blocked again.
A majority of the Fifth Circuit panel hearing argument on Texas's stay application *tomorrow morning* just issued an order "dissolving" the "administrative stay" that a different panel imposed on March 2. So the injunction goes back into effect.
Here’s the order and Judge Oldham’s dissent #SCOTUS #politics
The Senate just confirmed Nicole Berner, a longtime SEIU lawyer and former Planned Parenthood litigator, to a lifetime federal judgeship on a U.S. appeals court.

Alexander Hamilton, writing in 1792 to George Washington: "The only path to a subversion of the republican system of the Country is, by flattering the prejudices of the people, and exciting their jealousies and apprehensions, to throw affairs into confusion, and bring on civil commotion... When a man unprincipled in private life[,] desperate in his fortune, bold in his temper... is seen to mount the hobby horse of popularity ... #politics #AssWaffle

By resigning early, Ken Buck is giving an advantage to anyone but Lauren Boebert.
She cannot run in the special election since she already occupies a seat, so another person will be elected to serve out the term, and it won’t be Lauren.
Smart

The RNC just made Christina Bobb - a central figure in the attempted coup d'état of Jan 2021 - head of election security.
Bobb worked for OANN, and is a Russian asset

I mentioned this a while ago.
Since 2000, there have been three special counsels appointed during Democratic administrations (Smith, Hur, and Weiss) and three appointed during Republican administrations (Fitzgerald, Mueller, and Durham).
None of the six appointees were registered Democrats.
Every FBI director during this period (and indeed, in the history of the bureau) has been a Republican.

Filled with glee that Faux news broadcast the hearing today. The Dems kicked ass. #politics

Merrick Garland is evidently the only person on the planet who didn’t realize that OF COURSE a Trump-appointed partisan would misrepresent Biden’s mental fitness to help his own benefactor regain office in 2024. An almost inconceivable amount of naivety and ignorance.
OF COURSE Robert Hur would use his appointment as special counsel to sabotage Biden’s reelection! He wants Trump to win again so he can get an appointment to DOJ or the judiciary!
