It is not a stretch to worry that a 2028 SCOTUS would similarly decide that states lack the authority to enforce the Twenty-Second Amendment.

President-elect Donald Trump has mused more than once that he might like to run for re-election again in 2028 and seek a third term. The Constitution's 22nd Amendment does not allow it. Here’s why. nyti.ms/48YsMZO
The Constitution means whatever the hell 5 Republican Party operatives in black robes say it means.

This isn't "internal recriminations." It's voters expressing overwhelming opposition to what the people they elected to represent them are doing, and anyone--either in journalism or politics--who characterizes it as infighting is either not seeing and hearing what's right in front of them or lying.
The sooner we get past internal recriminations and back to fighting united, the better off we all are — the likelier our victory next November.

And @whitehouse.senate.gov has the nerve to tell me not to be angry.
Look at this new outrage. To open govt, we're retroactively letting 8 Senators sue for $500K each over having had their J6 phone toll records looked at. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/u...

So the oldest person ever to become president keeps falling asleep in his office during public events and there’s no big public discussion on how this is a coverup or how republicans are lying to us about how this government is running?
