This week, Jamie Raskin did what almost no other human has done: told it to John Roberts straight. As for what precisely he told Roberts, you can read all about it in @ElieNYC’s latest newsletter—along with his take on the SAVE act and more.

At the end of the day, it’s just bad people being supported by stupid people.
The whole world is suffering because someone turned “why isn’t there a WHITE history month?!” into a political party.
👀The federal judges in West Virginia, where ICE has been pulling over and detaining people on the freeway, are literally screaming about ICE's tactics.
"It is an assault on the constitutional order," Judge Goodwin says. https://t.co/rUbiObHXN7
BREAKING: Jon Ossoff torches the “Epstein Class” of elites surrounding Donald Trump. He calls them out for being the very elites they pretend to hate. This is pitch perfect messaging that shatters the idea that Trump is a man of the people. Wow.
So let’s stop the games.
If you want this fight, @RepJamesComer, let’s have it—in public.
You love to talk about transparency. There’s nothing more transparent than a public hearing, cameras on.
We will be there.
@SenFettermanPA@JohnFetterman Loyalty to my party required me to vote for you-winner of the primary.
No other reason. Loyalty. Of which you have none. You’re a disgrace.
There is no such thing as a Department of War. There is no such person as the Secretary of War. Hegseth wants to cosplay in an alternate universe with a fake title and a fake department name to seem like a tough guy. Kelly is the real deal—a patriot not a poser.
Over twenty-five years in the U.S. Navy, thirty-nine combat missions, and four missions to space, I risked my life for this country and to defend our Constitution – including the First Amendment rights of every American to speak out. I never expected that the President of the United States and the Secretary of Defense would attack me for doing exactly that.
My rank and retirement are things that I earned through my service and sacrifice for this country. I got shot at. I missed holidays and birthdays. I commanded a space shuttle mission while my wife Gabby recovered from a gunshot wound to the head– all while proudly wearing the American flag on my shoulder. Generations of servicemembers have made these same patriotic sacrifices for this country, earning the respect, appreciation, and rank they deserve.
Pete Hegseth wants to send the message to every single retired servicemember that if they say something he or Donald Trump doesn’t like, they will come after them the same way. It’s outrageous and it is wrong. There is nothing more un-American than that.
If Pete Hegseth, the most unqualified Secretary of Defense in our country’s history, thinks he can intimidate me with a censure or threats to demote me or prosecute me, he still doesn’t get it. I will fight this with everything I’ve got — not for myself, but to send a message back that Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump don’t get to decide what Americans in this country get to say about their government.
