🚨BREAKING: In a MAJOR VICTORY, the 6th Circuit REJECTS Department of Justice lawsuit to access Michigan's voter file. The first appeals court to rule on an appeal in DOJ's 9 defeats. I am proud of the Elias Law Group team for this critical win! www.democracydocket.com/cases/michig...

You guys, the White House accidentally ordered 10x the amount of Porta-Potties that they needed. The lawn is just acres of Porta-Potties. It’s all fenced off and you can’t see, but I took this photo through a hole in the fence netting.

Nice overview Post-Evangelicalism, Ex-Evangelicalism, Progressive Evangelicalism by Kelsey Hanson Woodruff

SCOTUS will allow Alabama to use a congressional map that a lower court found intentionally discriminated against Black voters. A Court so fundamentally hostile to the rights of minority voters places it at odds with democracy itself. This is Chief Justice John Roberts’ legacy.

Allowing myself to steal a hot one

As horrifying as this campaign of premeditated murder is, what might be even more disturbing is the utter indifference of Congress, the public and our allies to such a shocking and unapologetic obliteration of the many laws and norms against targeting civilians. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/31/w...

ICE is targeting journalists at Delaney Hall. They’re hitting photographers, breaking fingers and smashing off lenses.

This is incredible.

Don't forget: my old Yale Law classmate Clarence Thomas refused to recuse from Jan. 6 cases despite his wife's involvement in the plot. And he's taken at least 100 gifts worth over $2 million while serving, including from GOP donor Harlan Crow. He's a disgrace to the Court.

every time someone's like Claude deleted this or Claude convinced a teen to kill themselves I picture a mischievous french guy

REMINDER: You do not, in fact, have to go to the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. Even if you are in media or politics. Even if you are in D.C. Even, believe it or not, if you are both in media or politics and in D.C.

THE HOUSE JUST VOTED TO EXTENDED TPS FOR HAITI!!! Thank you, Rep. Ayanna Pressley for your leadership on this. Proud to help co-lead this effort for our Haitian brothers, sisters, and siblings. What a day.

Two brilliant civil rights lawyers - one Asian American; one Black American. Both women. @aclu.org’s Cecellia Wang & @legaldefensefund.bsky.social’s @janainelson.bsky.social. They argued two of the most consequential cases in SCOTUS this year. This embrace is one of my favorite moments of the day.

Check out today's episode of Fifteen Minutes of Fascism Episode 280: They Have Built Forced Birth Concentration Camps

A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.

When Keystone Kash's FBI raided the Georgia election office, they not only took all the ballots and equipment, they also took the back-up images of the ballots. Taking the back-up images means that they can tamper with the ballots without anyone being able to prove they did it.

Racist & antisemitic fundraiser for ICE killer of queer mom raises over $250K www.lgbtqnation.com/2026/01/quic...

There have been nine ICE shootings. There will be more. I think it may be time to consider these actions in the historical context of the Central American death squads supported by previous iterations of U.S. imperialism. And ICE's hostile incursion into "blue" cities as a form of imperialism, too.

They literally cannot sack us all! WE are the university, and it's past time WE defended it. That goes all the way up to the admins who still like to think they're scholars. Colleagues, fascism is here and we need to STAND UP.

It’s December 5th and I’ve already watched ‘Home Alone’ three times.

HAPPY FOUR SEASONS TOTAL LANDSCAPING DAY TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE

The Pentagon has failed seven audits in a row and the DoD has confirmed nearly $11 billion in fraud in just 7 years. But the concern is the poorest Americans abusing the average $342 monthly alotment. foxbaltimore.com/news/nation-...

I’ve been writing for a long time about contested and evolving meaning of economic terms like “free enterprise,” and I’m struck that pollsters can ask people whether they have a “positive or negative” image of “capitalism“ or “socialism,” without defining the terms. news.gallup.com/poll/694835/...

Wait…this is reverse exile. If professors are to be royally punished for their opinions, they should at least get to put that they were exiled on their CV. “Cancelled:” not as valid on the job market.

So cool that whenever someone asks the president, “did you eat the Lindbergh baby” he’s like, “no but I’d be allowed to, I have the right to, I might do it later”

When Trump starts deporting profs, can they at least still call it exile? Being exiled is how you know you’ve made it. Bakunin: exiled Bernstein: exiled Marx: exiled Luxembourg: exiled!

Shout out to @eyesontheright.bsky.social for spotting this white supremacist meme on the DHS Twitter last night. I followed up and DHS responded with more memes. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/dhs-inc...

DIDN'T TAKE LONG: One group suing over Trump's birthright citizenship order has refiled its lawsuit as a class action, noting that the court left open this option for nationwide relief. They're asking a Maryland judge for an emergency restraining order. www.politico.com/live-updates...

The mayor race on Tuesday saw massive turnout differentials - turnout in @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social’sbstrongest precincts was up ~30% while turnout in Cuomo’s best districts were ~ flat. These are big differences - essentially two different elections that happened to fall on the same day.

"Right-wing reactionaries have spent the past few decades insisting that the Constitution’s meaning is fixed in time so that they can...undo civil rights gains while maintaining a semblance of respectability. And Damsky’s paper turned their subtext into text." @audrelawdamercy.bsky.social

They really took it all the way 😂

“Only a counter-elite can challenge our…managerial masters, & it is to the unashamed development & cultivation of that counter-elite, particularly among white voters excoriated by the Democratic regime, that the right must devote the lion’s share of its political energies.” -Jeremy Carl, 5/19/22 1/
