I think it’s time for Saka to come on and help take the sting out of this.

Just listened to @arsenalvisionpodcast.com where Elliott and Clive laughed at the possibility of this front 3 being selected again. Who’s laughing now? Not me.

The plan can and should be quite simple. Expand the court to 13 justices, adding 4 liberals. This should be immediate in January 2029. Then Congress can go about enacting further necessary reforms.

The court has simply recreated the pre-Brown world in allowing racial discrimination across a broad number fields as long as it is “facially neutral,” gutting the Reconstruction Amendments in the process.

I think an obvious solution is to not only pack the Court, but to take advantage of Congress's plenary authority over Congressional elections to nationally gerrymander for Democrats, while offering a constitutional amendment to prohibit partisan gerrymandering and guaranteeing the right to vote.

This is why it's COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE for the state of Minnesota to collaborate with the federal government, especially with the FBI and DHS. We're helping them fulfill their mission of targeting Somalis for political incitement, while they laugh off any consequences for murdering our people.

This:is 💯 correct. The vast majority of Section 2 litigation (and settlements made under the threat of litigation) have been at the local level. Callais will gut minority representation in city councils, county supervisors, and school boards across the county.

Alito authoring opinion saying fixing a racial gerrymander is also racist and then musing, 2 hours later, during oral argument about Trump's racist effort to end humanitarian protections against deportation for Haitians, about how he doesn't like dividing up people by race I loathe this man so much

I genuinely think there's something deeply wrong with anyone who finds this idea remotely appealing

When a Louisiana Klansman and neo-Nazi named David Duke ran for statewide office in 1991, the MAJORITY of white people voted for him. Nice to see that there’s no more racism in Louisiana politics.

Idk, I don’t really care about 2024 anymore. The lessons of that election really aren’t going to apply to the next one, and instead will lead to pointless infighting. We really don’t need to be fighting the last war.

As someone who lost a parent due to a stroke caused by 50 years of smoking - preceded by stroke-induced dementia caused by smoking - the “maybe we should start smoking again” person can fuck right off.

SCOTUS is telling us that there's no choice left but to pack the court. Congress can pass whatever laws they want to, but the Gang of Six will veto them if they think it'll help Republicans cling to power.

"The hypocrisy of the Roberts Court is simply astounding. The GOP-appointed wing of the court is clearly inventing one set of rules to approve maps that favor white voters and Republicans while using another set of rules to block maps that benefit racial minorities and Democrats"

you shouldn't knowingly hasten your own death because the politics of the current era are bleak

John Roberts deserves something worse than just burning in hell. And the lack of real media attention on his death by 1,000 cuts plan for the VRA is another media failure.

Another situation in which the presumption of regularity regarding the government is leading to unfair consequences for those outside the government.

Republicans have eviscerated the Voting Rights Act and left a zombie in its place. Instead of requiring just evidence of discriminatory effects, Alito now requires evidence of *intentional* discrimination. But SCOTUS has made that practically impossible to prove when the GOP claims other reasons

Democrats need to be as ruthless about expanding the Supreme Court as they have on partisan gerrymandering. Court expansion should be on the president’s desk on 1/20/29.

If Democrats do not immediately expand and rebalance the Supreme Court at their first opportunity, nothing else they do to rebuild democracy will survive and MAGA rule will remain entrenched.

Students from abroad used to come to here because we respected the freedoms of speech, association, and inquiry. Now they’re not coming here because we don’t. It’s really as simple as that. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/29/w...

don't judge me frog and toad bot!!

When you’ve lost Jonathan Turley 👀

Absolutely one of the dumbest to ever do it

Savage.

Hands will remain on the stove until morale improves.

this might just be the absolute pinnacle of slopulism

bears could shit in woods, survey finds

“No reasonable person could believe that Comey intended to threaten the president via seashells," a DOJ official told me. "Everyone at this DOJ should be ashamed. I know I am.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

What The Guardian Got right. www.therebooting.com/p/the-guardi... The key: "A voluntary contribution model that has attracted 700,000 supporters, 500,000 of them recurring. Reader revenue has grown 35% a year for the past two years." And now they have a bigger audience than the Washington Post.

In 2029, we are allowing everyone to exchange their Trump passports for passports honoring the Union victory for free. We can pay for it with a billionaire liberty surcharge. This is a plank on the Woke 2 platform.

Article that made me mad secretaryrofdefenserock.substack.com/subscribe?si...

These people are evil incarnate.

Ma’am, you should consider non-voting as an option. You didn’t realize Republicans cut school funding as their thing? In 2024? What planet are you on? Trump never promised you anything on education, ever.

"We are fucked. I don't know how else to say this."

these focus groups are just further anecdotal evidence for my view that trump is is understood as a totem for wealth and prosperity. these people are genuinely bewildered that he isn’t, and might in fact be a human being with ulterior motives

Well done, Bill Cassidy.

Trump, Musk and the modern conservative movement are the most powerful enemies of America's right to free speech in our nation's history.

Randy Barnett is a gutter racist.

i also remain amazed at how, all these years later, conservatives are still angry and aggrieved that barack obama extended empathy to a black teenager who was killed for no reason. shows you what is in their hearts.

there is something genuinely clarifying and useful about this kind of stuff. they are totally hoods off and proud of it, which means we should not hesitate to describe them accordingly

When you write down what Trump actually says, there’s really no difference between what comes out of his mouth and a Truth Social post.

There has been some quite incredibly good Arsenal content released in the past few days. Love this interview with Mikel Merino, @arseblog.com and @arsenalvisionpodcast.com. Congrats to you all and all the fans donating their time, money, and efforts to spread Arsenal love worldwide.

Absolutely loved the interview with Mikel Merino @arseblog.com and @arsenalvisionpodcast.com - thank you...he always comes across as a top man..boy could we do with him now 🥰

The process of dying hasn’t given Sasse any profound insights. Still an odious dickhead sure that he knows whats best for people he knows nothing about.

Burgum doing some real pre-iPhone profile work in this picture. This is the bone structure of a man with opinions on Franklin Pierce.

You really cannot overestimate the level of status trauma a lot of white Americans experienced at the election of Barack Obama and how much of our politics is still influenced by it bsky.app/profile/beau...

Next WHCD should be held in Kabul.
