The absurdity of members of congress lobbying to pack the supreme court so it decides in their favor in cases like this instead of rewriting the laws in question - the literal reason they exist! - cannot be overstated.

Once again, nearly all of these SCOTUS decisions can be changed by Congress: late arriving mail ballots, partisan gerrymandering, student loan debt forgiveness, asylum at the southern border, TPS designations, tariffs… If you don’t like the decision: LOBBY CONGRESS!

Look, I think most anti-trust stuff is Calvinball. But how would breaking up Apple into smaller companies lower the price of iPads and iPhones? It’s like some people think breaking up companies punitively is smart economics because reasons.

Pulling up the ladder.

The blatant lying I'm seeing from a bunch of media organizations about those anti-fa convictions is insane. Here is what actually happened in that case. 1. People are claiming "Oh, only one guy fired shots, so this means you can now be sentenced to decades in prison if someone else at a protest gets violent." Wrong. They all knew each other, were part of the same group, arrived at the scene together, and all brought guns. There was not a single person at the "protest" who was outside of their friend group. If you're at a protest and someone else shoots a cop that is substantively different from you and 7 of your friends getting rifles, committing a bunch of felonies, and THEN one of you shooting a cop who responds to all the felonies you just committed. Yeah, in that second instance you might wind up on the hook for the shooting. Sorry you're an idiot. Have fun in prison. 2. "Antifa can't be a terrorist movement because it's a decentralized idea." Yeah, so is 21st century Al-Qaeda, but if you shoot cops after getting motivated by reading Inspire Magazine, you're still a terrorist. That's the same fact pattern as what happened here. The people involved were in a group chat together where they self-identified as a coordinated political movement seeking to change policy through violence. If you self-ID as a terrorist behind closed doors, don't be surprised when a jury decides you're a terrorist and you get hit with terrorist enhancements and spend the rest of your life behind bars. 3. "OMG, one guy got a huge amount of prison time for moving boxes." "Moving boxes" in this case refers to one of the accused getting a call from his wife when she was in prison where she asked him if there was anything at the house he needed to move. He then LOADED UP HIS TRUCK with documents and magazines containing far-left terrorist ideology and tried to drive them to another house so the feds wouldn't find the proof of his wife's connection to extremist organizations. He tried to conceal evidence from federal agents in a case involving the attempted assassination of a police officer. That means he was both an accessory after the fact and provided material support to convicted terrorists. Meanwhile fucking PBS News is talking about this like he got convicted for moving a box of items from the living room to the kitchen. The far-left and their useful idiots in the mainstream media and Democratic establishment have spent years lying about antifa not being a movement predicated upon terrorist violence, when any rational person could tell that's exactly what it was. It turns out the second you put the question in front of a jury none of your low-IQ, echo chamber reddit propaganda means a goddamn thing because normal humans who actually touch grass are going to send you on a one-way trip to a federal penitentiary What's that phrase again? When you're used to being privileged equality seems like oppression?

Rent freeze edition…

If only someone in the Hamas leadership had thought about how wantonly murdering employers disincentivizes hiring.

Got a real will they or won’t they situation on our hands!

Letting hundreds of thousands of sick, elderly, and disabled Europeans die every year for lack of AC will do absolutely dick-all to slow down climate change, and I'm tired of people who lie and say that it will

The “civil war is happening” crowd is 0-50 now. Hang in there, guys. Civil war is surely around the corner this time because it’s important to remember that social media is upstream from real life.

A lot of things people (including me) said about Trump in 2015 aged poorly, but not this. His political success has hinged on forcing the GOP leftward on issues including Social Security, Medicare, gay marriage, and (until recent idiocy) Mideast wars.

Insane to me how ugly so many recipe apps are.

Thomas Jefferson submits the final draft of his Declaration of Independence to Continental Congress.

@amNewYork Sort of seems like people could just buy a ticket and not commit a crime instead.

The Legal Aid Society on Friday took Mayor Zohran Mamdani's NYPD to task, charging that it has maintained the same "aggressive enforcement" of fare evasion carried out by the previous mayoral administration of Eric Adams. amny.com/nyc-transit/fa…

Don’t jump the turnstile, don’t get arrested

I don’t know, or we could be normal and talk to people like they’re people.

This tweet reads like part of the opening paragraph of a book five years from now about "how it all came to this."

Nothing like far-left extremism to combat far-right extremism.

@AnaKasparian Damn you’re a genuinely terrible person.

His country is about to be taken over by genocidal thugs and he’s going after the only people fighting against it.

This man is a disgrace.
