Reminder that Bari Weiss is "a pseudo-liberal who launders billionaires’ money into a project painting universities and the 'radical left' as the greatest threats to democracy, weakening liberal resolve and providing cover for crackdowns by the fascist right."

Kim Wehle: "Of the possible deployment of the National Guard in Chicago, Trump said: 'I have the right to do anything I want to do. I’m the president of the United States." Given the Congress and Supreme Court we have now, he might be right.

A remarkable story here
🚨EXCLUSIVE:

Federal judges tell NBC News the Supreme Court has got to do a better job of explaining emergency rulings, with frequent decisions in favor of Trump at least appearing to validate harsh criticism of the judiciary at a time of rising threats:

Finally the silence is broken (and the media report it). Lower court judges have been attacked by both the White House and the Supreme Court - and they are finally speaking out in self-defense. The rest of us should support them too for upholding the rule of law! www.nbcnews.com/politics/sup...

In my view, Amy Coney Barrett kicking off her book tour by doing a sold-out event with Bari Weiss and publishing an exclusive excerpt in The Free Press should end the "Supreme Court justices are not motivated by ideology" discourse once and for all ballsandstrikes.org/legal-cultur...

Just watched the press conference with the survivors.
They are so brave and I am so happy they finally are getting heard.

They know who was involved. There were even names dropped. Clinton and Taco both.

Orlando City Commissioner Tony Ortiz just switched from Republican to Democratic.

“The Republican Party is not the party I signed up with... The marginalization of Latinos and immigrants—many of whom have helped build this country—is not leadership. It’s fear-based politics.”

Russia keeps killing civilians, and our official policy, sadly, is to blame the Ukrainian victims. The US could act to stop this, but we seem to lack both empathy and strategy. Good reporting here.

Democrats—led by Rep Maxine Waters and others—walked out of a crypto hearing, which led to it being shut down. Waters objected “because of the corruption of the president of the US and his ownership of crypto and his oversight of all the agencies.”
