I’m just going to say that AOC is the acting leader of the Democratic Party until someone proves otherwise. At least insofar as she is responding to the moment with leadership.

The stupidity of prosecuting from the bottom up now reveals itself as Trump pardons his violent mob. Garland is to blame for this.

As expected, tonight President Trump reversed Biden’s directive that had eliminated DOJ contracts with private prisons. However, the reversal is limited to contracts with the Bureau of Prisons and U.S. Marshals Service. You can read more here: www.brennancenter.org/our-work/ana...

There are a lot of busy lawyers out there. Trump doesn't just issue an EO & that's it. There will be challenges, some of them lengthy, over legality & constitutionality. The Supreme Court gave him immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts, not omnipotence.

An unelected billionaire was crowned co-President by the Republican Party. They’ve given him the influence to make a damn post that throws a spending bill into limbo cause House Republicans are scared of him.

Sens. Welch and Manchin have introduced a constitutional amendment that would establish term limits for Supreme Court justices.
The amendment would impose 18-year limits on new justices appointed to the court, with, eventually, a new term starting about every two years.

Supreme Court 18-year term limit bill should be just the beginning:
— 13 justices
— 7 clerks per justice
— single 18-year term
— binding code of ethics with punishments all the way up to impeachment
— full investigation of corrupt gifts to Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, et al.
