Imagine what he would have said if Biden or Obama was convicted of falsifying records to pay off a porn star to assist in winning an election. And it was a jury’s decision, not the judge. Politics matter, sure, but it’s undermining the rule of law that leads to a banana republic

I’ve seen far right school board members in Iowa pretend better than Thomas and Alito to be nonpartisan.

[Ben Mowat @BenMeowat]

This is embarrassing. Pretending that this court is in any way objective is ridiculous.

[Michael Barbaro @mikiebarb]

Crucially, Alito doesn’t deny the flag was flying upside down, doesn’t deny its meaning, doesn’t express any disapproval for it and doesn’t disavow it.

@jayhw Currently listening to this at my 9-5

I’m so impressed with the interviewing skills of @lourdesgnavarro on her new podcast.

[Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias]

Rising murders in 2020-2021 were a huge news story.

The fact that over 100% of that increase has reversed is a non-story in a world dominated by negativity and doomer narratives.

Democratic operative here. If you insist on not voting, you leave people like me no choice but to focus on voters in the middle.

That means we won't be talking about universal health care, we'll be talking about compromising with Republicans on the border, budgets and prison reform. The choice is yours.

um--because the US is not sending weapons to Russia?

[Ben Mowat @BenMeowat]

Truly unacceptable

Update three years later and the housing problem in Missoula remains dire. Every “we could do x or y thing instead” proposal also did not happen.

I’m sure folks are enjoying the golf though.

@jayhw Reading Hagel has taken years off my life and I’ve hardly read any of him. I have never and will never understand dialectical idealism

If you have student loan debt, you should know this:

Every single House Republican just voted to overturn President Biden’s student debt forgiveness plan AND retroactively charge you interest on your paused payments.
