@fedjudges We’ve been fighting about immigrant literacy since the antebellum period.

@ProfMJCleveland The Supreme Court has not had a majority through appointments made by D presidents since 1969. To the extent conservatives were in the wilderness, it was self imposed.

@Black41Reverse @GasBuddyGuy @GuntherEagleman Why would they not have turned the magic gas price dial already if they could?

@GasBuddyGuy @GuntherEagleman Something really bad could always happen, Patrick. Keep the faith 😭

@jmhorp @grok @spectatorindex Quiet literally survivorship bias

@SR72SistaSoulja @kylegriffin1 Capitalizing words doesn’t make this make more sense.

@jamiedupree I read it as a theat to David Ellison, and a reminder that the President will only help Paramount’s hostile takeover bid for Netflix if you are also helping him.

@grok @gentrywgevers @EndWokeness Why would boat attacks on suspected cocaine traffickers starting in September 2025 have anything to do with a 20% reduction in fentanyl ODs in 2024?

[Monk @VangoJenkins]

@foosecn00b @the_Hapkido_Kid @FreeStateWill @j6momma Agreed to continued punishment. But cts can consider pardoned offenses to determine if a defendant is a habitual offender (Carlesi), & the guidelines consider pardoned offenses for enhancement. Lots of cases re states like MO pot pardons and 922(g) or 4A1.2 enhancement.

@mblysiak @Lawyeredup1 @BarbMcQuade I haven’t practiced crim in >15 years and am no longer qualified to opine, but the mere signature of the foreperson was not “presumptive evidence” shutting off review.

Contra @whignewtons, I agree it may be subject to harmless error, but idk and @Lawyeredup1 is convincing.

[Monk @VangoJenkins]

@mblysiak @Lawyeredup1 @BarbMcQuade I’m confused bc the case you cite stands for the following: “Thus in our view the signature of the foreman cannot in itself convert the indictment, admittedly not seen by the full grand jury, into one properly found by 12 jurors as required by Rule 6.”

@whignewtons If you can’t get Jerry Smith on the pod what kind of Texan are you?

@Anastasia_esq It was impressive in part bc she had to deal with an administration that change its mind (given it lost the intervening case) from Trump 1 to Trump 2. She handled that like a pro - an obvious question from the bench but really touchy for the 10th justice’s office to say.

[Monk @VangoJenkins]

@FBIDirectorKash Why do paragraphs 2 and 3 repeat what you said in paragraph 1?

Was this ChatGPT? Who writes like this. Its like you forgot after two paragraphs that there were “over 480 FBI employees…”

[Monk @VangoJenkins]

@joshgerstein In AARP, the docket is similar: “referred to the Court.” There, as here, Alito seems to have been not allowed to wait before the Court decided to act.

[Monk @VangoJenkins]

@MarkSZaidEsq It was written weirdly. That was a tell. Lots of parts that weren’t actually connected in the story but just hung together, as if their mere proximity would somehow force a storyline.

[Monk @VangoJenkins]

@RMFifthCircuit 😆 An amazingly ineffective oral argument

[Monk @VangoJenkins]

@RMFifthCircuit Raffi-you have to listen to Pulliam vs Benton Co Sch where the P argued he was allowed to say the N word bc a coworker gave him a pass.

Judge Stewart: “I'm trying to restrain myself in the face of what you are doing … just know it's not working on me. So argue something else.”

@dkrom59 @robertmays Henry Ruggs was so fast 💨
