• The left engine is flying through the air intact, but somehow the pylon and half the engine are still attached to the wing
• The vertical stabilizer is really far forward (compared to the elevator and tail)
Anything else I'm missing?

Just as with lawyers, judges need to be held fully responsible for everything they enter into the court's record. Fabricated quotes or citations should be met with appropriate consequences. If it's their signature at the bottom of the page, consider them entirely fault.

Question about the dissent by (the far-right) Justice Ziegler: Does this quote actually appear in Moore v. Harper? Did Moore say that state courts' role in congressional redistricting is "exceedingly limited"? I don't think it did! vhdshf2oms2wcnsvk7sdv3so.blob.core.windows.net/thearp-media...

We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way to get rid of Citizens United. Let me explain. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-get-rid-of-citizens-united

Just finished the latest @onthemedia.bsky.social , and I appreciate Brooke pushing back on the centrist consultant. I find his framing of policy positions election strategy to be completely backwards. Winning elections is a means to enact policy. Do we want to govern, or just hold power?

Listen Kaine, Hassan, King, Cortez-Masto, Durbin, Shaheen, Rosen, and Fetterman. You're NOT gonna take away my 2025 election joy. We voted in that election for folks to FIGHT for us. That doesn't include YOU.
YOU are what we voted AGAINST last Tuesday. So I'm gonna hang on to that.

@schumer.senate.gov needs to step down as minority leader immediately. If he truly was fighting to keep his caucus from caving and couldn't, then that's a failure of leadership. If he was saying one thing in public while brokering this empty non-deal in private, then that's a failure of integrity.

Hey #LawSky - what's required for something to be "lawfully authorized" for purposes of section (f) of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act? Would ICE hypotheitcally using this software to conduct warrantless searches and spying meet that standard?

Great work as always this week from @strictscrutiny.bsky.social. One thing that's easy to lose in the discussion of certain SCOTUS justice's book tours is that the very practice of justices entering into book deals while in office is questionable due to the conflicts of interest it creates.

The push by conservatives for "viewpoint diversity" needs to be seen in light of the content of their viewpoints. Climate change denial, vaccine skepticism, etc are not the product of genuine attempts at reasoning. The request is for academia to loosen its relationship with evidence and truth.

SCOTUS provides the same amount of reasoning for its emergency docket rulings as a magic 8-ball. And both have same amount of binding ethical obligations.
Over no public dissents, #SCOTUS has denied a trio of emergency applications by Tennessee death-row inmate Kayle Bates—who’s scheduled to be executed tonight.
Among other things, this means the current (October 2024) Term has now had more full Court rulings on emergency applications than any other.
