Trump says he’s designating “antifa” a terrorist group and launching a probe into finding of antifa activities. The FBI has long said antifa doesn’t really have a centralized structure or leadership.

May this portion of the dissent by Ketanji Brown Jackson haunt John Roberts forever and be the final word on his tenure as Chief Justice.

If you had told me 30 years ago that Michael Luttig and Bill Kristol would have a clearer understanding about what's going on than a lot of Democratic leaders, I'd have wondered whether you tried the brown acid.
Luttig is communicating vastly more clearly and honestly about Roberts and Scotus than most Democratic officials are. It’s absolutely flabbergasting.

Tearing the Constitution up one car at a time.
Situation on 14th St and W St. NW, with federal agents -- no specific agency identified -- pulling cars over for checks. They arrested a Black woman in this car.

BIG crowd of people shouting at police.

"Fuck you!"

"What is wrong with you!"

"You don't need to terrorize people like this!"

A special prosecutor? Not Senate confirmed? Like Jack Smith? Didn't Trump, Clarence Thomas, and Judge Aileen Cannon say that was unconstitutional?

Btw, for those who don't know my sordid past. One PART of my academic work was figuring out how "novels" (like Count of Monte-Cristo) interacted with the "news" on the same front page they were published on.

My obsession about front pages goes back over 200 years.
BREAKING!! Front page NYT!!!!

Yet another seismic decision fundamentally reshaping our system of government issued on the shadow docket with not even a single word of explanation.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court allows the Trump administration to move forward with the abolition of the Department of Education. It gives no explanation for its order. All three liberals dissent. www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...
