I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: However it might play out, if you don’t impeach this guy for committing these crimes right in the open then you’re editing impeachment out of the Constitution and just kissing checks and balances goodbye.

Kind of feel like we especially don’t need fancy law explainers at the moment. “Can the president just take money when he wants?” A third grader could answer this. A Yale law prof is likelier to write the wrong answer so their 2L can work for Alito

i have been writing about the virginia supreme court decision with a certain amount of analytical detachment but if i’m being honest i’m also fucking furious i took the time to go vote and then my ballot got tossed out by these dipshits

Feeling overwhelmed with all of this. LISTEN. Another Louisiana resident (Marshawn is the only name we have) testifies against the state’s racial gerrymander, speaking truth to power up and down the hearing room and predicts how this story will end. Speak your truth, fight and believe.

Dems once again choosing Respect For Process over victory.

Schiff is a CA senator. He seems AWARE of the terrible harms these "A.i." companies are inflicting on us, and he's taking stabs at addressing them. But he's still pushing "A.i." into schools and seems to me to be pulling his punches with these (mostly CA-based) "A.i." billionaires.

This is excellent. I want to preempt a legit concern, namely that there is no chance that Congress will actually do this. 1. We don’t know that, and shouldn’t assume it. 2. Even talking about this is good because it disrupts the Court’s monopoly on our constitutional imagination.

In a safe blue seat, we need leaders who will fight to expand the Supreme Court. I am the only candidate on the ballot in #CA14 who will fight for it.

John Roberts has been trying to kill Voting Rights Act since he was young lawyer in Reagan DOJ in early 1980s. That's most important context for today's Callais decision. Roberts Court has now issued 3 major decisions gutting VRA, turning law into dead letter www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

We must understand that the Voting Rights Act was not merely about ensuring Black Americans rights, it was about democratizing America. This ruling is not just a decimation of Black rights and Black Americans’ ability to have representation, it is a fatal blow to multiracial democracy.

It’s a disastrous day for democracy. The Voting Rights Act made the U.S. an actually functioning democracy. And civil rights activists face impossible odds to gifting it to us. The Supreme Court‘s decision is vile.

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.

it is important to emphasize that this was *the point*. this was *intentional*. elon musk is a vicious white supremacist who thinks poor african children ought to die, so that the world can be whiter

this should be the opposition rallying cry in every country where fascists have been ascendant

That's why a key focus of the midterms ALSO needs to be getting new Democratic leaders in January

We know you're not a big fan of it, Rep. Pelosi, but impeachment is the responsibility of the House, and it's your sworn duty to support and defend the Constitution. A simple majority will do it, and you can force a vote via Rule IX.

Any member of the House may force a vote on impeachment via Rule IX, even without the consent of the Speaker. citizensimpeachment.com/rule-ix-and-...

“…our nation (and the globe) faces increasingly grave danger by allowing this man to continue to control the levers of America’s awesome power…the responsibility resides not just with Republicans but with every member of Congress…to remove Trump from power.” www.americaamerica.news/p/donald-tru...

This is the way! Everyday they need to be forcing impeachment floor votes

Time to impeach, you mean. The avenue you, personally, can actually do something about. Not the avenue that depends on his own weirdos to do what you refuse. You don't get points for recognizing a problem if you also refuse to fix it. Get a clue, or get primaried.

No real problem with ordinary folks asking about the 25th, but every time a congressman asks for the cabinet to remove a president you should read that as them abdicating their own duty to pursue impeachment through congress

This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesn’t belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.

Impeach Trump. @housedemocrats.bsky.social @houserepublicans.bsky.social Do your job. Honor your oath.

Sandra Wong, the great granddaughter of Wong Kim Ark, is preparing to march at the #NoKings Rally in San Francisco. Today is the 128th Anniversary of the SCOTUS decision affirming birthright citizenship.

I can't fucking believe we're doing this again.

How many of them will tell you he’s an aspiring dictator when they’re begging for $5, then go sit politely with their hands folded for tonight’s rant, as though he’s just another legitimate president with whom they have some policy disagreements.

Naah, I want them on trial.

hakeem jeffries needs to step down from leadership for passing that godforsaken DHS funding

What's happening in Minnesota is one reason the Reconstruction Amendments banned insurrectionists from holding office. Unfortunately, the originalists on the Supreme Court interpreted the plain language of the amendment to mean its opposite.

In some countries the outbreak of bloodshed inspires the opposition party to call for the leader to resign

My friends, we are in a serious constitutional crisis. The government is racially profiling, suppessing free speech, killing our own people in the streets— and lying about every fact along the way. If we don’t use our natural talents and voices to say “no,” then what’s the point of law at all?

One thing that irks me: people keep calling the folks on the streets in Minneapolis protestors. They are not generally there to protest, they are there to observe and document. This is the product of organizing and mutual aid. It is telling that these acts of citizenship are seen as protest!

right now the floor for me is abolish ICE and put every agent on trial and the average elected democrat is like what if we told them to cut it out

Okay, I did it New at The Evening Constitutional! Why Donald Trump is an actual factual traitor, within the meaning of the Treason Clause eveningconstitutional.net/donald-trump...

Good thread about junk science. In 2018 I was part of a team that exonerated a man in CA who had been convicted based on false microscopic hair comparison analysis. Spent 15 years incarcerated because of junk science

I'm just going to keep pushing how important impeachment is. And how we should be already working towards it. www.techdirt.com/2025/11/26/o...

My nephew www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8UYLhHm/ @warriorsofficial.bsky.social pretty awesome that you made this happen!

Amazing story of a formerly wrongfully incarcerated man who just was elected as city clerk of New Orleans

The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

This is not a Kavanaugh stop. This is a Roberts murder.

Never mind every other single abominable or corrupt thing to this miserable moment, the extrajudicial and unevidenced execution of 34 human beings by the U.S. Navy on the orders of a U.S. President acting in peacetime is sufficient for his impeachment and conviction. If we were a republic, I mean.

BREAKING from PP We found immigration agents have held more than 170 *citizens* The govt doesn't track citizens held. So we did. We tallied: Nearly 20 kids, two w/ cancer More than 20 citizens held for day or more, incommunicado www.propublica.org/article/immi... by @nicolefoy.bsky.social

Yes! Stanford must not capitulate.

The spelling bee pangram is just taunting us today

A couple of points on this post, which I agree is excellent: • A hearty 'amen' to this:

Dems need to denounce and fight this Portland insanity very, very hard. Our unacceptable hesitancy when Trump invaded DC encouraged further escalation. We should be demanding Congress return to deal with this "emergency" - briefings, hearings, debate. We have to fight. bsky.app/profile/jonw...

Sure seems like the president just instructed the military to use lethal force against US citizens.

I don't give a shit about Comey, but I give several shits about the president actually and personally using the carceral state as a vehicle for his petty grievances against individuals he doesn't like. You shouldn't risk jailtime if the president finds you irksome ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

whoever is running the most effective “PRIMARY ALL OF THEM. YES, ALL. I SAID ALL. I MEAN ALL” campaign can have literally all my money, time, and social media followers. Congressional fire sale, everything must go, no substitutions, all sales final. I’m so serious. this is irredeemable
