The Supreme Court of the United States is an illegitimate body, and every Democrat should run on negating and replacing it
#BREAKING: Over dissents from the three democratic appointees, #SCOTUS puts Texas's new House maps back into effect for (and, presumably, through) the 2026 midterms.

The three Democratic appointees, in an opinion by Justice Kagan, dissent.

I'll post the ruling shortly.

The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.

I get that some people genuinely think every trans person is mentally ill, or delusional, but if your response to the existence of trans people of that its ok if they get raped in prison, you're a disgusting disgrace of a human being.

Still funny the trump presidency is exactly what republicans and the press claimed the Biden presidency was
Trump’s echo chamber:

Very little U.S travel

No rallies or contact with supporters

Right-wing media

Dinners with rich donors and billionaires

1. Over Thanksgiving, texts from Dem. Sen Ruben Gallego leaked where he repeats far-right talking points on masculinity, lamenting that Democratic women "look like men."

Using far-right gender-panic rhetoric will not ingratiate the Democratic Party towards men.

We, the transgender community, receive a lot of flack for apparently erasing the word, 'woman'.

Yet, I increasingly see in the press, transgender women referred to as 'biological males' (slur) AND cisgender women referred to as 'females' rather than women.

Who is really erasing the word, 'woman'?

The weird thing about the “Venezuela is a distraction” idea is the presumption that it’ll work.

It might have worked prior to our current social media, but I don’t think it will fly now. Too many eyes on all things these days.

Targeting Kelly is one of those “this is why we’ll win” moments, bc it shows how politically impetuous this admin is.

There’s clearly no adult in the room to say “wait, maybe don’t go after the charismatic war hero turned literal astronaut who ran after his wife was a victim of political violence.”
Mark Kelly: "My wife, Gabby Giffords, meeting with her constituents, shot in the head. Six people killed around her, a horrific thing. She spent six months in the hospital. We know what political violence is and we know what causes it too, The statements that Donald Trump made incites others."

This is an awful crime against humanity, and it will also set a precedent that will allow the next Democratic administration to nullify the white South African refugees’ status. I hope those aspiring “refugees” keep that in mind.

Democrats really need to step up over Venezuela. The approval rating is already dismal, you can make it worse.

Putting Americans in the line of fire for a conflict that you haven’t justified during holiday season is not a winning set of cards.

Dismissal without prejudice means it MAY be possible to refile the indictments against James Comey and Letitia James-even though the statue for Comey has run

But this is an awful defeat for Pam Bondi's DOJ

And if the cases are revived defendants can still seek dismissal for malicious prosecution
BREAKING: Judge rules Lindsey Halligan's appointment was not valid, thus, she had no authority to present the James Comey or Letitia James indictments and the indictments are dismissed without prejudice.

It really says everything that major outlets aren’t really covering the Twitter location feature.

They have always maintained that there is a true split between Americans. This goes against it by showing how much of the right is fake. It’s all a lie.

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.

We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.

We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.
