Now this is universal healthcare.

The alternative to intellectually bankrupt right-wing constitutional theory isn't some equally meretricious left-wing constitutional theory. The alternative is to shrink the power of judges and make more decisions *democratically.* www.nytimes.com/2026/02/16/o...

I will not support any funding deal that puts money in the hands of Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, and this violent agency. Defund and abolish ICE now.

Eeesh. Did Anand (who was the very first person I voted for as a Canadian citizen) feel as grossed out as I do seeing this?

Canada is strengthening its Arctic presence — and this week I will be in Denmark and Greenland to open our consulate in Nuuk. This is a clear signal of our commitment to sovereignty, security, and regional stability.

I wrote about this. Like pretty much everything that anyone has said about the coming collapse of our constitutional order, it was basically ignored. www.alternet.org/2021/05/flaw...

She voted to fund ICE. Why does everyone hate the Democratic Party?

He had multiple opportunities to prevent this and deliberately pissed them away.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter. I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

So apparently my puppy ate someone’s misplaced edible cannabis product. Vet said it’s happening all the time now. Please keep your drugs secure!

The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same

Murder at sea. Murder abroad. Murder at home. SAY IT LOUD AND CLEAR.

I can't look at Stephen Miller without thinking that he's consumed by anger because his family's wealth and social status prevented him from becoming what he really wanted to become: a serial killer.

I swear, María Corina Machado is Lindsey Graham in drag.

The Supreme Court insists the Constitution be read according to its original public meaning and then disregarded.

John Roberts, you worthless dupe.

I'm puzzled. Which of Trump's constituencies is really interested in his private war against Venezuela?

Watch @jamellebouie.net's video, which is very informative, but also note that there are many good reasons for Supreme Court expansion apart from trying to achieve progressive political outcomes. It would be a better, more defensible institution if it were bigger. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

did a video a few days ago making the case for supreme court expansion www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjB_...

I wrote about the conservative quest to restore the "true" Constitution, the Antebellum Constitution, shorn of the egalitarian nonsense in the Reconstruction Amendments, a document that replaces equality with a society of dominators and the dominated. www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Mute, mute, muting all Bill Clinton defenders. Rejecting Bill Clinton since he was credibly accused of assaulting several women (including Paula Jones) and also threw Monica Lewinsky under the bus in the 1990s. Further disgusted since the 2000s with his paling around Epstein. You're welcome.

Sunstein posted an admirably frank essay yesterday on the Unitary Executive Theory: How he participated in this elite bipartisan political consensus — and how he has been persuaded by overwhelming historical evidence that he & other high-ranking lawyers were wrong. open.substack.com/pub/casssuns...

Uber Eats sucks. How many stops do they allow drivers to make before they bring your food?

can we skip to the part where the union dissolves or there’s a new constitutional convention or something this is exhausting

Is government unconstitutional?

Our problem seems to be that Trump misunderstood the sense of the word "execute" when the Constitution states that the president "shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed."

Yep, the Supreme Court really is just a House of Lords—a purely political branch with bizarre veto power, wielded capriciously and without accountability. Time for massive reform.

An important message for Democrats: the best way to fix a broken constitution is to not be constrained by the rules of a broken constitution.

Rand Paul tells me that he wants the full video of the Venezuelan boat strike released. “And I think if the public sees images of people clinging to boat debris and being blown up, I think that there is a chance that finally, the public will get interested enough in this to stop this.”

Today's woodpecker performing a metaphor

I am begging one, JUST ONE, congressional reporter to follow up with Mike Johnson by asking, "What are the American people to make of a Speaker of the House who tells us daily that he's not aware of what's happening on Capitol Hill and the White House?"

Wonderful three plus weeks in Kenya, but glad to be getting on the last leg (Paris to Toronto) of the journey home in three hours.

This morning on the train from Nairobi to Voi.

This is what happens when you listen to people like Matt Yglesias and run to the middle. You become weak.

The Democrats need to elect more centrists so they can cave even faster.

A big tent party is useless because it can’t stand for anything. What good is having enough votes for a majority or a filibuster if you can’t hold those votes?

THINGS ARE PRETTY GOOD HERE 🇨🇦 PeaceLoveCanada.ca

@joshuaholland.bsky.social "In other democracies…." You mean of course, "in democracies." The "other" doesn't make sense when you're talking about the US.

Thank you Blue Jays , forever proud! @bluejays.com #WANTITALL    #Torontobluejays

Americans often get angry at us when we Canadians criticize them for not doing enough to actually stop Trump. But it's headlines like this, which we see regularly, that explain our frustration with the American people's lack of effective action.

Diwali reminds us that light shines brightest when shared. It was wonderful to mark this festival of lights on Parliament Hill alongside friends, community members, and many fellow Members of Parliament who joined to honour this beautiful tradition.

White people have to be specific about how they’re related to each other so they don’t actually marry first cousins. Everyone else manages just fine.

The good thing about being retired is I can stay up to 3 am watching a baseball game. The bad thing about being retired is I'm too old to stay up to 3 am.

This is exactly what my wife has been saying for the past few days. Trump is erasing women from White House history completely.

I’m from the UK and I admire all you do Randi. But it appears to me that that’s exactly what is happening. People are sitting and complaining on social media. Do yo think that is what caused the fall of the Berlin Wall?
