I like bourbon in moderation and sharp cheeses in excess.

section 2 of the VRA? nullified? the 15th amendment? only applies to intentional discrimination. intentional discrimination? impossible to prove given an unbreakable assumption of good faith for a state legislature. 14th amendment? equal protection clause means the constitution can't even see race.

It is bizarre how the outrage is limited to law professors and the hyper engaged.

the best part of the new Alabama case is that it is unlawful to remedy intentional racial discrimination unless you can find a remedy which achieves exactly the same result without being racist

a reminder that Amy Coney Barrett wrote a paper about how it is important for a conservative jurist to hide their power level until they can destroy the Reconstruction Amendments.

American journalism and the American legal establishment are very similar actually; both demand all the rewards and accolades of fulfilling an important role in society while violently rejecting any of the obligations. Both defined by fawning sycophancy that they've defined as courage.

The more I think about it, the more I don't really want to pack the court; just blackbag the 6 justices and hold them in gitmo. They've declared war on the United States by nullifying an amendment under the color of law.

well, correction. the purcell principle is still in effect, it just means that late voting changes that might hurt republicans are verboten, late voting changes that might help republicans are A-OK.

This is worded wrong. Supreme Court allows Alabama to use overtly racist map that disenfranchises Black voters after falsely claiming they were not overturning the Voting Rights Act.

If you don't understand why it's grotesque to respond to attacks on synagogues and harassment of Jews by talking about Gaza and Zionism, think about what you'd think if/when a politician responded to an attack on a mosque by complaining about Saudi Arabia or the Taliban.

It's a great message. I would like to see it paired with the more libertarian-themed "keep your government hands off of my dick."

If it was impossible anyway, then why bother putting the stamp of approval on Rubio? Make it a party line vote to at least maintain credibility.

This is honestly making me cry a little. It's just straight up vandalism, destroying a long-term scientific investment and undoubtedly many scientific careers for no reason at all. ("Cost savings" isn't a reason. This whole system is cheap compared with days of war.)

Anyway, I recommend joining me in consequentialism land. The weather is nice and you rarely show your ass. (People yell at you a lot over their "principles", but you can ignore them.)

But maybe you're not a consequentialist. You have "principles". Okay, fine. But that means voting for people who insist on selling bombs to a country that's actively using them to kill Palestinian children does not violate your principles, but voting for Platner does.

The consequentialist view is that you vote for both Harris and Platner, whatever your reservations, because whatever their faults they are clearly better than the alternative.

Mostly Vance is just fully insincere and obviously so. He does not like other people and he has to pretend and he's not good at it.
