Trump’s proposed triumphal arch…. does not frame the nation’s honored dead, but frames instead the home of [General Robert E. Lee,] the man who led the armies of the Confederacy that killed them.”

HEGSETH: Their nuclear facilities have been obliterated SMITH: Whoa whoa. We had to start this war, you said, bc the nuclear weapon was an imminent threat. Now you're saying it was obliterated? HEGSETH: They had not given up their *ambitions* S: So Operation Midnight Hammer accomplished nothing

"It’s one of the more heartening signs of a broader pushback against authoritarianism that Trump’s reprisal prosecutions have consistently run aground. In this crucial area, the rule of law has, so far, withstood the rule of one. I expect it will here as well." https://bit.ly/4cQb8Kd

Before our eyes, the U.S. Supreme Court is unraveling the gains of the civil rights movement. People people fought, bled and died for protections that this regime is obliterating. 🧵

This is correct. There is no future of democratic self government in the US with an unreformed Supreme Court. The Court is riddled with corruption and abuses of power and rooting out that corruption is a sine qua non of civic democracy in the United States.

The Supreme Court just took a sledgehammer to the last remaining protections of the VRA. This is a naked attempt to re-enshrine white supremacy and eviscerate Black and brown power at the national, state, and local level.
