I’ve been thinking about how the white moderate think about free speech. Where calling for violence and the dehumanization of entire groups of people is merely supposed to be pluralism at work rather than an a threat to that pluralism.

The Supreme Court should preserve the status quo until legal questions are resolved and explain the disposition of cases for the public. They are abdicating basic principles of equity and failing to fulfill their institutional role. They aren’t pretending to try. There isn’t even the veneer of law.

Turning into a single issue voter for 2028, where the issue is which Democratic candidate will vow to nominate the most rabidly partisan, vengeful and hate-filled AG you can possibly imagine

illegal war started by a man constitutionally ineligible to be president

If any of this surprises you, I'd suggest you re-evaluate the esteem in which you hold Big Law.

Come join us, the Big Law Haters. We have drinks and gripes.

very excited to see what this does to the lives and livelhoods of my friends and family. also excited to live through, what, the third economic collapse that is the direct product of republican governance?

Increasingly convinced that the main divide in the Democratic Party is between an older generation that inexplicably romanticizes an old version of the Republican party and a younger generation that wants to burn the Republican party to the ground.

I still don't get why Dems didn't make more demands for the CR. Instead of anti-impoundment language they should have been calling for Elon Musk to be fired and for DOGE to be dismantled.

Today seems like a turning point for rank and file Democrats. I've never seen so much rage at party leadership.

one thing I've become very convinced of is the need for the civil service to do waaayyyy more propaganda. like you should know about how NOAA makes the weather app on your phone work. you should know that Uncle Sam runs GPS. you should know how impressive the US census data collection effort is, etc

anyone who knows anything at all about the federal government already knew this, this isn’t some big reveal, if anything, there hasn’t been enough excess capacity in decades to handle crises, properly investigate, and effectively regulate

Ah shit it turns out the problem with conservatism is that conservatives are all evil

The biggest layoff in U.S. history is underway and Dems aren't saying anything. The Democratic party is failing federal workers.
