NEWS --> Prominent conservative Michael Luttig excoriates the right wing SCOTUS justices as "radical," predicting that in the 1/6 case, they'll protect Trump entirely. “I now believe that it is unlikely Trump will ever be tried," Luttig tells me. Link: newrepublic.com/article/181059…
“The assoc.justice’s logic on [email protected] immunity hearing was beyond belief.He’s@ the center of 1 of the darkest days in Supreme Court history.””His line of questioning 2Michael Dreeben,..attorney arguing..special counsel’s case,was from some perverse Lewis Carroll universe”

👇 Democrats need fighters willing to play hardball against an authoritarian right wing minority.

If you’re looking for a masterclass in lawyering, listen to this clip of Elizabeth Prelogar absolutely demolishing Justice Sam Alito - she got her hands on him and didn’t let him go 😭 I know who my GOAT is (also that’s @Eli_Kunene dying in the background).
A Supreme Court where 5 of 6 conservative justices appointed by GOP presidents who initially lost popular vote & confirmed by senators elected by minority of Americans issuing decisions opposed by majority of US that take away reproductive rights from millions of women
One big reason for my own unease and unhappiness? Senate Democrats continuing to extol “bipartisanship” as a virtue in its own right even as Republicans fall fully into the thrall of an aspiring fascist dictator. We can’t just wish back the pre-Trump world.

But it also suggests he thinks the court and justice system have no power over him. That ultimately, they can’t hurt him. Everything in his life has taught him that. And unless our system stops bending over backwards for him, it’ll prove him right.

There isn't another defendant in the country who could thumb their nose at pretrial conditions of release the way Trump has and remained walking free. Not one. Trump is being given special treatment that no one else would get. If you'd done what Trump's done you'd be in jail.

It's long-past time to stop pretending that the Supreme Court is some kind of virtuous entity that floats above politics and rules on the merits. Congress needs to put in place stringent ethics rules and be honest about the fact that our courts are full of partisan hacks, too.

If you think that trash you just heard from the Supreme Court about protecting J6 rioters will *ever* be applied to peaceful Black protesters, think again. Just yesterday, the Court allowed Louisiana to continue hunting @deray My latest in @thenation thenation.com/article/activi…
Retired Justice Stephen Breyer wants us to know that the SCOTUS justices are friends, and he wishes we could all get along like they do. His op-ed is drivel, but behind its gooberish pablum there's something more sinister at work. I explain in @thenation thenation.com/article/archiv…
If Dems want to stop Christian Fundamentalist judges from issuing nationwide bans against whatever pill scares them this week, the answer is legislation. Legislation or GTFO. “Norms” have no more use here. My latest in @thenation thenation.com/article/archiv…
Finally, someone in the media speaks truth to power as @NicolleDWallace threw away the script declaring that America’s “broken” Judicial System is unable and truly unwilling to hold Trump accountable under the law. This is how it’s done. 🔊Up #FreshUnity
The Nation is witnessing the determined delegitimization of both its Federal and State judiciaries and the systematic dismantling of its system of justice and Rule of Law by a single man – the former President of the United States.
But suffice it to say, never in history has any person leveled such attacks and been met with such passivity, acquiescence, and submissiveness by the nation.
As I write in my new piece for @MSNBCDaily: “Many of our institutions of government seem to have decided that the rules, the laws and the Constitution apply differently to Trump than they apply to the rest of us.” This needs to change. msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-…
Sam Alito is not just corrupt. He puts his own ideological beliefs over everything else, trying to find some patina of rationale. He certainly does not belong on the Supreme Court much less any court.
Exactly.
7: The 'Centrist' Trap🔀: The belief in a consistent ideological "center" is flawed. The "center" comprises people who are conservative in some aspects but progressive in others. Addressing them through their progressive identities is crucial. Stop “moving to the right”!

Our biggest problem is, we are not fighting hard enough. Clarence Thomas’ bribery and refusing to recuse from Trump’s 14A & immunity cases should evoke a full throttle response from the DOJ. Yet Garland is afraid to do anything about it. Smith can do the right thing by seeking…
We were getting ready to go to a party and I asked my husband if he thought I was dressed like a dad and he looked at me and said, so sincerely and positively, "you look like a divorced dad who is really trying to get back out there."
I enjoy @CitationsPod for a lot of reasons. One of them being the vocabularies on everybody involved lol.
no one is saying it’s acceptable! they’re saying you lied and attributed it to a student protester when it was said by a pro-Israel provocateur!

The New York Times keeps putting vague headlines on stories about MAGA fascism. It happens so often that I don’t think it’s accidental. A proper, direct headline for this story would be: “Trump’s Rhetoric Gets More Radical and Divisive.” That’s what the story says.
I love how the coup happened on video in broad daylight and then everyone asked for pardons, but 4 years later not a single organizer has been held accountable. Perfectly functioning justice system under Merrick Garland right there.
@andrewrsorkin if you want to go this direction, why would you single out antisemitism? is there evidence that’s the only form of blatant discrimination there is at scale on college campuses?
@andrewrsorkin But Andrew, why only antisemitism? Why not Islamophobia and anti-Black racism too? Where are we drawing these lines on what is and isn’t tolerable? And how are we defining antisemitism?
Mass Shabbat service last night at the GW encampment. Stop slandering these protests and focus instead on what’s provoked them: mass graves in Gaza underwritten with our tax dollars.
Congrats to the entire mainstream corporate press for being complicit in the rehabilitation of Bill Barr to sell his book and make it into a bestseller. We told you.
Barr: We have regulations coming fast and furious. telling people were kind of stoves they can use and what kind of cars they have to drive and eliminating cars and so forth yeah, those are those are the threats to democracy
Its amazing there is so much political corruption happening out in the open now and very little is being done about it We must have lost our damned minds for allowing the normalization of criminal conduct from our public officials Its mind numbing there are people who like it
@GregTSargent @PeterMax80 a man who is.that careful with his words, condemning sitting scotus members is entirely worth listening to.
By the way, on Alito's questioning, it's worth recalling that SCOTUS justices said ruling for Trump on 14A was necessary in part for stability. Funny how stability always seems to require *not* holding Trump accountable. (h/t @Dahlialithwick @mjs_DC) newrepublic.com/article/181059…
Michael Luttig predicts that either a delay will enable Trump to cancel Jack Smith's 1/6 prosecution if he wins the election, or that SCOTUS will grant Trump immunity so he never even gets tried. newrepublic.com/article/181059…
