"The Judicial Conference of the United States, which makes policy for the federal courts, finally struck a blow against this cynical gamesmanship on Tuesday, announcing a new rule to restore the random assignment of cases and close the loophole that lets plaintiffs hand-pick their judges."
To be filed under closing the barn door after the horse has escaped. Kcysmarck(sic) alone has already caused immense harm to the country that will take years to undo. Mitch McConnell did this to the country with the help of t***p. End it now so just maybe if we can keep our democracy we have a chance of once again seeing the rule of law prevail.
Great catch on the Trump machine not commenting on Harris's visit. The thought of her visiting Planned Parenthood locations, speaking about reproductive rights over the next 6 months and the Trump squad squirming because they can't say anything....well, that makes me smile with delight!
A never Trumper or a fan of Nickki Haley can indeed defeat Trump in the battleground states. At the same time, Jill Stein, Cornel West and Robert Kennedy can ruin the Biden attempts. Kennedy is hardly from the left. More like a different off ramp in Crazy town. Stein and West should hang their heads in shame. Do away with the electoral college now.
I read this morning in the car and just got back to my computer. This phrase appears in the story about Kamala Harris.
"the unsavory practice itself"
The more I thought about it the madder I got. You are speaking about healthcare, would you say the same thing about an amputation or a mastectomy. The President said reproductive rights because it is these rights and women's rights in general that are under assault across the country by republicans. You don't want an abortion don't have one but keep your hands, and your laws the hell off my body and the body of every other woman.
Candidate Trump security briefings seem the perfect opportunity to find out if he is funneling information to our enemies. Isn't that what they do in the movies to tease out a security mole? Feed him something untrue and see who ends up knowing about it. That would be some evidence!
He should get the briefings--pretend like he's a normal candidate--except that a couple of "mines" could be planted in them for him, only him. When they come out, it will be proof of continuing Espionage Act violation.
Perhaps Sarah Longwell might form a "Permanently Barred" Club with T-shirts telling Trump and MAGA: "We Accept Your Invitation." I think the point was made recently on a Bulwark broadcast, perhaps last night's, about the ability of humor to cast would be authoritarians in a negative light. I normally do not buy such apparel but this is one I would proudly put on. Given Trump's actions on Ukraine and NATO, it's an honor to be "permanently barred" from his Putin-enabling MAGA outfit.
Language is powerful. Saying a woman should be empowered to make her own health, education and economic decisions gains credibility & votes. In addition, if I were to advise Democrats, I’d emphasize accepting all people in spite of their individual differences. Cool down LGBTQ (Different strokes for different folks). Pull the curtains for goodness sakes. I’d also explain to Activists trying to change Foreign Policy that their cause is promoted by Iran, China and Russia. “Be careful what you wish for.”
Joe Biden should be impeached if he allows anyone in the U.S government to provide intelligence briefings to Donald Trump -- talk about a violation of the oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution!
The pro-Ukraine group I belong to was fundraising for drones to protect a unit (among other things). A member of our group has personal ties to them.
We were informed this morning that the unit no longer exists.
I really don’t understand how people sleep at night who know the stakes but refuse to help. I’m convinced that half of them don’t really believe in God no matter their claims.
I think the concept of "healthcare" cannot be shouted from the rooftops .

Preempt Trump. Televise the classified briefings so everybody has access to sensitive materials.

Looks like Pence has seen a speck of light at last: https://www.politicususa.com/2024/03/15/the-vice-president-that-trump-tried-to-have-killed-will-not-endorse-him.html

Just as a reminder, per CDC data, approx 93% of abortions are performed in the first trimester.

Whatever happened with the Kristi Noem/Corey Lewandowski kerfuffle? Does adultery actually make her more or less appealing to MAGA?

Isn’t it kinda clear by now that Johnson doesn’t give a damn about Ukraine?
