Joe Rogan explains to his audience why due process is important and quotes Ben Franklin — "it is better 100 guilty persons should escape than that one innocent person should suffer.”
He argues against shipping people to a prison in El Salvador without trial because we think they’re gang members.

Best outcome of Birther II cases (albeit least satisfying, and politically second least likely): Scotus rules that by 1952, Congress understood "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" to mean everyone but diplomats for 8 USC § 1401(a), so @USConstAmendXIV.bsky.social question is not ripe.

Tomorrow, our democratically elected government will peacefully cede power to a military junta which, four years ago, made clear to all they would never peacefully cede it back. What could possibly go wrong?

If we had a textualist, originalist, constitutional conservative or strict constructionist Supreme Court, the Equal Rights Amendment is now the validly ratified 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution. We don't, though, so it probably isn't.

“The fact that there were four justices prepared to block the proceeding bodes ill for the high court’s willingness to act as a check on Trump once he returns to office.”
Why? Because there was absolutely no credible reason to stop yesterday’s sentencing.

Opinion | The Supreme Court’s ‘no’ to Trump was dangerously close to ‘yes’
In ruling 5-4, the high court showed how close it is to becoming a rubber stamp.

The ABC News settlement makes zero sense from a legal standpoint. It assumes there is a moral or reputational difference between forcibly penetrating a woman’s vagina with fingers and doing so with a penis. It also assumes that Trump has a reputation that could suffer damage.
