A Sly Political Switcheroo Stuns Montana and Starts a New Senate Fight

You’ve gotta just appreciate the hutzpah of the liberal paper of record calling Republican electioneering a “sly” political maneuver. JFC. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/05/u...

If nothing else, they’re consistently monstrous.

I mean, they don’t give a shit if our own children are gunned down in schools, so why should we be surprised that they don’t care that other children are blown up in schools?

Not only that … correcting racial imbalance with a state law under state Constitutional power is racism and can be overturned by the federal government exercising its power. Wowzers.

Judicial nominations are a big deal. Conservatives have fixated on them for a generation, the left hasn’t, and the consequences have been enormous.

With 3 new circuit court vacancies and maybe a Supreme Court vacancy coming, now’s a great time to start paying closer attention.

That’s very kind of you. Thanks Matthew.

With a few exceptions, the people/schools/organizations who complied with this nonsense did so because they wanted to and/or have no conviction … not because they had to. Never let them live it down. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 to the ACLU for taking it to court.

The Conservative Legal Movement Was Ready For Antonin Scalia’s Death The sequence of events kicked off by Scalia’s death a decade ago might feel improbable. But the right was waiting for its chance to capture the Court, and didn’t let it go to waste.

The right successfully leveraged Antonin Scalia’s death to seize the Supreme Court for a generation because the conservative legal movement had spent decades preparing for such a chance. In my view, THE political project for the left is putting in the work to take it back

God it’s going to be funny when our AI overlords that the billionaires put in place to rule us all start taxing the wealthy at 90% again because, well, obviously.

It's not a new observation at this point but that wild Noem/Lewandowski story in WSJ really brings home the extent to which all the Trump 2 cabinet-level goblins see their jobs as flying private, doing short-form video, and screaming at underlings. They all hate each other and none of them can read.

Congress should set agency priorities, not the president.

This is a presidential power grab.
And we are in a separation of powers crisis.

It’s part of the Project 2025 plan, enabled by the Supreme Court which has been packed with corrupt politicians in robes.

Just six weeks until spring. More than half way through the winter. 🥶 whew.

2017 NYT op-ed by Samuel Moyn: Trump Isn’t a Threat to Our Democracy. Hysteria Is.

Since Donald Trump’s election, the United States has been gripped by tyrannophobia. Conspiracies against democracy are everywhere; truth is under siege; totalitarianism is making a comeback; “resistance” is the last refuge of citizens. Tyrannophobia, the belief that the overwhelmingly important political issue is the threat to our liberal freedoms and institutions, has always been a powerful force in the United States. As history has shown, however, its tendency to redirect our attention from underlying social and economic problems has often been the real source of danger. It is easier to believe that democracy is under siege than to

He is super duper smart. His credentials are dizzying. Maybe he’s a wonderful person, I have no idea.

But the genius Yale Law professor who put his reputation behind this is not someone whose judgment anyone should rely on ever again.

Thank you for telling people about this terrible judicial nominee. Here are more materials on why he’s so awful. afj.org/nominee/just...

Anna St. John's response to Durbin's questioning was a complete lie. The legislation she opposed prohibited companies from using FORCED arbitration agreements - which are the opposite of giving people a choice. St. John supported screwing over the victims of sexual harassment. Period.

In yesterday's Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, Senator Durbin asked Anna St. John about her stance on forced arbitration.

They are trying to put the very worst lawyers into lifetime positions on the federal bench. Anna St. John is the latest.

I support term limits for Congress, the Senate and SCOTUS.

This is just insane. It’s only a matter of time before DHS kills another innocent person here.

Seven weeks until spring.

They are literally the worst lawyers.

I know it doesn’t make any logical sense … but February is the w only month of the year when I feel like I’m paid fairly. Every other month, I work for free either for two days or three.

Hey @mayorbowser.dc.gov, where are the plows and salt on the side streets in the city? We’re still fairly dug in here @ Kalorama and Champlain NW and I don’t know how teachers are going to get back to school tomorrow @ Marie Reed if this snow isn’t removed.

For sure. 👏🏼👏🏼

And also organizing a brutal neo-Nazi campaign in the harshest winter against some of the famously kindest and most democratic people in the US should also go down as one of the biggest political mistakes in American history.

🚨 Breaking from the US Senator for Connecticut. 👇

There you have it.

ICE has never been about immigration enforcement.

It's a weapon used to brutalize Americans and stoke enough fear so that Trump can rig the elections and usher in dictatorship.

This 🐏 v 🦅 game is really good.

Nazi fucking murderers. We need tribunals yesterday.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.
