Dick Cheney became a fierce critic of Donald Trump after the Capitol insurrection — but by then, it was too late, Ron Suskind writes. “Mr. Cheney had done as much as anyone in history to undermine Americans’ trust in their institutions and leaders, including Mr. Cheney himself.”

I hope they catch the people responsible. I only hope that Laura Loomer's irresponsible and downright violent rhetoric wasn't a contributing factor to the deepening crisis of right wing extremist attacks in our country.

I saw someone say something like "finding furries on a media platform is a sign of a healthy community, it's like how finding animals in a forest is the sign of a healthy ecosystem" and this is so true.
If the furries leave, you know the soil is toxic and you should set up camp elsewhere.

The male-male Mallard pair is still hanging out at the pond near my office, still only associating with each other and ignoring the other birds nearby. If they get too far apart they suddenly race toward each other again.
I love them very much.

Still amazed that these two maps are not making more news and generating more public comment. Especially given the intentionally degraded capacity of the federal wildland fire service.

![Scene is WAITROSE CUSTOMER SERVICES DESK. Behind it is a staff member, whose name we will soon learn is BECKY. She is dealing with a customer, for now out of shot, while talking to her manager on the phone.
BECKY [on phone]:
Yeah, hiya...

BECKY:
Yes I have a customer here who wants to complain about the Easter eggs.
3
BECKY [putting hand over receiver while addressing the customer stood at the desk in front of her]:
Sorry what was your name again?
4
[Pull back to show the customer is a very tall, green-skinned, PAGAN GODDESS, festooned with flowers. Stood next to her is her son, a normal human teenager in a hoodie, who looks mortified by his mum.]
PAGAN GODDESS:
Eostre the Pagan Goddess of Fertility

BECKY
Sorry -
Your name is Easter…?
PAGAN GODDESS:
Eostre.

VICKY:
Your name is Easter and you want to complain about the Easter eggs.
7
PAGAN GODDESS:
Sorry love, what’s your name?
BECKY:
Becky
PAGAN GODDESS:
Well, Vicky -

PAGAN GODDESS:
If it was you who’d shagged the solar god of the Equinox to give birth to an actual living god - my son Darren here -
TEENAGE BOY:
Muuum…
9
PAGAN GODDESS:
….only to have all your efforts totally forgotten by history, you’d have a complaint too!
10
PAGAN GODDESS:
Aisle four is full of products, with no hint of the true meaning of the festival!
11
BECKY:
You mean… Jesus…?
PAGAN GODDESS:
I mean shagging, Vicky.
12
PAGAN GODDESS:
Is it too much to see just a little bit of pre-Christian sex in Aisle 4?

The modern Supreme Court is an undemocratic myth created to undo actual democracy. And we can get there again. With progressive judges willing to be pressured and a mass movement willing to provide that pressure.

The lesson of the Warren Court is how power works, how democracy works, and how propaganda works. In my experience, people think that 99% of what the Warren Court did was actually passed by Congress.
So we need to redefine how and where we make demands.

Second, public pressure works. We know it does. Warren is proof of concept.
But more than that, the Warren Court is a roadmap. What we need is that kind of progressive counterweight to the Federalist Society that serves the people from the judiciary.
