MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

As I have been lamenting for years, the clear erroneous standard for District Court findings of fact has been rendered null & void by this Court.
Justice Kagan in dissent:
“We are a higher court than the District Court, but we are not a better one when it comes to making such a fact-based decision.”

A lot going on—too much—but I jotted down a few thoughts about a key, unanswered question for our times: How courts are useless in dealing with unrepentant presidential racism.

And yes, much of the blame lies with the Supreme Court of the United States. www.newyorker.com/newsletter/t...
Can Judges Restrain Trump’s Racism?
From the daily newsletter: the President’s rhetoric against Somali Americans, and his desire to act on it, exposes the need for a recourse under the law.

I feel like one of the most underrated explanations for what's happening right now in global politics is that almost everyone has lost their minds.

Three things about the Witkoff tapes:

1) It appears Western intelligence services have decided to let Witkoff (and Trump) know they have recordings of their traitorous conversations w/Russia.

2) This Ukraine "deal" was all Witkoff's idea.

3) Congressional leaders should demand he be fired.

This is the same playbook the Trump administration ran in Portland, where DHS officials falsely accused local police of failing to help them (or not arriving quickly enough). Strikes me as a problem that the government lies so freely to the Supreme Court now. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/25/u...
