When I’m in my more optimistic moments, I think we’ll look back at last year as the high-water mark of Trumpism, when the combination of arrogance after Trump’s victory and the inherent authoritarianism of the Trumpist project led to a unique period of state violence and legal corruption.
And now, my optimistic self says, the justice system is reasserting itself. The combination of personal courage, legal persistence and judicial independence is preserving due process and the American system of justice. https://t.co/2cuMCJ2XDo
@RepMikeQuigley Its set to run out of money because of your own fiscal indiscipline. So of course you want to vilify a wealth creator because that is who you are.
@domhnall_g I don’t really care about inequality very much. I care about poverty, I care about prosperity. Getting your panties in a bunch about inequality is an aesthetic gripe masquerading as a policy preference.
@HansMahncke Pulte is a chigger-bitten redneck nepo baby who shouldn't be put in charge of anything more consequential than a Kool-Aid stand. Still, even he's probably made of sterner stuff than the fabulist @HansMahncke.
It is not his place to vacate a court order. Also, be mindful that the judge who issued the Order has reopened the case and investigating whether she was misled by the DOJ and Trump's lawyers when she entered the Order. She has placed all parties on a pretty tight briefing schedule to answer some pointed questions for which there are no good answers. So stay tuned.
