how many more lessons do we need about the courts before one sticks
Hold up, after several days of holding late-night judicial confirmation votes, Democrats are voluntarily ceding four appeals court seats to Trump and the Republicans? They're...giving up? Just like that? What is going on here? www.foxnews.com/politics/sen...

I think Biden's biggest domestic political miscalculation, like Obama before him, was not forcefully taking credit for policies that improved Americans' material conditions. People need to be told to be grateful. "I gave this to you. Say thank you."

Trump, unfortunately, gets this.

the reward Dems get for allowing - contrary to the explicit letter of the constitution! - insurrectionist Republicans back into Congress in 2021 is that the Republicans are now basically refusing to allow a duly elected Democrat into congress because she's trans.

Trump just nominated Brendan Carr to be in charge of the FCC.

Brendan Carr wrote the FCC chapter in Project 2025.

Project 2025 was always Trump’s plan. We were warned.

2021: Nancy Mace sponsors a centrist version of the Equality Act protecting trans people from discrimination (but with religious carveouts)

2022: Her district map is gerrymandered leaving it less Black and more conservative (upheld by SCOTUS in 2024)

Pay attention to Oklahoma.

Bibles in classrooms isn't the big story.

The same legal teams behind the seeding of Dobbs are driving a case to create religious schools fully funded by the public & they've already petitioned the Supreme Court.

Understandably, everyone was focused on the election.
