Good for Watson. Words that should have come from Trump since he was there the first day. But this is the kind of behavior he encourages.

Centrist intellectuals vastly overstate the popularity of fascism.
Media and Dems are still getting this badly wrong: Trump is deeply unpopular! Recent approval numbers:
38-54 (Quinnipiac)
39-60 (AP)
40-56 (Gallup)
41-58 (Reuters)
39-56 (Economist)
On the pod, @lakshya.splitticket.org explains these numbers brilliantly. Listen:

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it?
If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say?
Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

New YouGov poll on Trump approval:
Approve: 39%
Disapprove: 56%
Honestly, 39% is still way too high.

This is another blow to women's healthcare, leaving women in SC who rely on Medicaid without access to birth control, cancer screenings, STI testing and more.
This will lead to worse care for women across the country. We'll keep fighting these attacks on women's healthcare.

Who has gone out on a limb to challenge Trump?
Lots of federal district court judges.
Whom did the Supreme Court choose at this moment to rein in (having passed on doing so under Biden)?

This is an assault on the Reconstruction Amendments by a Neo-Confederate Court wedded to the far-right argument that those amendments were illegitimate and destroyed the original intent of the Founders, which was to create a white man's country

Justice Sotomayor dissenting on birthright citizenship case: "The gamesmanship in this request is apparent and the Government makes no attempt to hide it. Yet, shamefully, this Court plays along. Because I will not be complicit in so grave an attack on our system of law, I dissent."

Miami just canceled its November election & pushed it to 2026. No public vote, just canceled.
Mayor Suarez & Joe Carollo get to stick around an extra year.
This feels like a power grab. If one city can delay elections for “participation,” what’s to stop others from doing it to silence opposition?

If the Supreme Court thinks universal injunctions are unconstitutional, to wait until *now* to say that, in this of all cases, with this of all presidents, is a devastating indictment of both its impartiality and its prudence.

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?
