"Pulling the Supreme Court back from the cliff is something progressives should view as far preferable to the alternative—where it may not just be the Court that gets pushed over the edge and into oblivion, but our entire constitutional (and democratic) order."

Me in today's issue of "One First":
198. Progressive Judicial Institutionalism
There's important daylight between those who are critical of the present degree of judicial power in the United States in general and those who are critical of the current Supreme Court, specifically.

This has always been a Bluesky-first campaign. But as of today, we will no longer be using Twitter. At all.

And I'm calling on other candidates to follow suit.

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.

And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

A reminder:

This isn’t ideology
This isn’t incompetence
This isn’t business as usual
This isn’t temporary
This isn’t normal
This isn’t ethical
This isn’t legal
This isn’t meant to be popular
This isn’t meant to be good for anyone

This has been a strategic attack against the U.S.

Act accordingly

Wow have times changed.
Maybe those who are condemning the democrats who are warning of possible repercussions for executing an illegal order, should familiarize themselves with Lt. Calley during the Vietnam war and the MyLai Massacre for which he was convicted and sentenced to life in prison.

Indeed! The Budapest Memorandum saw Russia, the US and the UK sign an agreement to protect Ukraine's borders in response to the latter's nuclear disarmament. Out of the three, only the UK continues to uphold that pledge.

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.

If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.

If you're under 30, the number is 100%.

Fun fact about Trump tariffs you won’t see in 99% of the reporting:

Trump tariffs are illegal.

Congress controls tariffs just like tax rates.

President can change a tariff only for national security emergency, meaning war.
