The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed.
Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyranny—they’re currently enabling it.
When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.

Here’s what he’s missing:
We have a president calling immigrants “garbage” and affordability a hoax, a DOD secretary cosplaying war games with no accountability, a VP saying it’s “reasonable” to not want neighbors who speak another language, and a Speaker who believes women are inferior.
The GOP.

If you see John Roberts in person, be sure to tell him he’s a worse Chief Justice than Roger Taney (pronounced “tawny”). That’s a nerd burn that will hit him where it counts.

The bottom 90% lost a collective $79 trillion in wages over the past 50 years.
Why? Because the top 1% ate up an increasingly larger share of the national income — so that $79 trillion flowed to them instead of the working class.
The greatest trick of all is trickle-down economics.

It's good—very good, and very important—that district courts keep issuing these 100-page rulings upholding the law. It must be incredibly dispiriting to see them overturned in a two-page, lawless, unsigned order, but please, keep them coming. They expose SCOTUS' corruption like nothing else.

Saying they are “Narco Boats” with zero evidence.
We honestly don’t know if Hegseth is just getting drunk and angry and blowing up random boats in some drunken rage.
We honestly do not know.
Because again. They offer no evidence.
At this point he’s just murdering people.
