Policy wonk. Classical liberal. I think and I know things. Sometimes wrong but always Wright.

This is a list of the Who's Who of Norm Eisen's Judicial Insurrection Corps. All signing on to a brief stating that SCOTUS rulings are meaningless to them. Paying no attention to SCOTUS direct instructions is tantamount to sedition, nothing less - because SCOTUS is the head of the Article III branch of government, from which the district judges get their power. Saying "we can do whatever the hell we want" is a giant f-u to the Constitution and to the country.

Do State and Federal judges have an obligation to try to follow Supreme Court emergency orders in good faith? 175 judges say no, endorsing the ongoing resistance by district courts to orders the Supreme Court has *already said* are binding. Odd to join such a partisan brief!

Trump is entitled to be embittered against Mueller. But Mueller was a rapidly declining elderly man who a bunch of political zealots propped up as cover for their rabid “Anti-Trump” effort to cripple his first term in office. They bear more responsibility than Mueller who only understood a fraction of what was being done in his name as his testimony revealed. Not long after that his family removed him from all public life.

I have this vision of Babylon Bee writers waking up in cold sweats worrying that their satire just can’t compete with the real Mazie Hirono.

Not a record... March heat was higher in 1934 at 100 ppm less of CO2 showing that surface temps are rather insensitive to trace gas concentrations.

As potentially record heat continues across California through the weekend, we have predeployed @CAL_FIRE and @Cal_OES resources to protect communities from extreme wildfire conditions. Protect yourself and follow guidance from local authorities. Ready.CA.Gov

Democrat messaging on this debacle basically goes like this. Dems to Republicans: “We’ve seized an elementary school and are holding the children hostage. If you want the children back, abandon the core principles of your political party.” Dems to the children’s parents and community at large: “Republicans can end this hostage situation any time they like. All they must do is meet our demands. It’s their fault the children haven’t been freed.” No one outside of the TDS afflicted is buying it.

Paul Friedman is 82 and has been on the bench since 1994. He took senior status--semi retired, decreased case load, etc--in 2009. But he refuses to step down so he, like other aged DC judges including Royce Lamberth and Colleen Kollar Kotelly, can spend their waning days on earth punishing Donald Trump and preventing him from appointing their successor to this powerful court.

BREAKING: Judge voids Pentagon's new press policy that led most outlets to surrender their credentials. In suit brought by NYT, Judge Paul Friedman (Clinton/DC) says policy violates 1st Amendment because it's designed to "weed out disfavored journalists." ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show_p…

American socialists have arrived in Cuba and are giving the dictator Diaz-Canel a standing ovation inside an auditorium with running AC and electricity while Cuban on the island experience blackouts and hunger.

Maryland reported 4.5 million registered voters in 2024. Maryland's citizen voting-age population was 4.4 million in 2024. Maryland had more registered voters than voting-age citizens eligible to vote. Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) opposes the Save America Act. @ChrisVanHollen

But don't worry, you can totally trust they aren't developing nuclear weapons because they have a "Fatwa" (that no one can confirm exists) against it despite clear evidence of a weapons program geared towards that and enriching uranium at levels that have no other purpose.

WAR: Bessent authorized the sale of 140 million barrels of Iranian oil worth up to $15 billion. Gas prices drop globally. Iran gets nothing. The funds are frozen until a new Iranian government exists. This is what winning looks like.

GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN: Democrats are worried their Senate Minority leaders refusal to restore pay to thousands of federal workers over a grudge with Trump could hurt them in the midterms. Many Democrats are looking to oust him as leader.

@FurFeather3 As long as there are geese willing to be plucked, the welfare state will grow. But the geese have been getting tired of this for quite some time.

@DaddyWri Trouble is they migrate to new states and bring their socialist votes with them. Look a MN. Most districts are red, but major cities have ruined it for the rest of the state.

@PattyMurray Depends. If you keep trying to link funding TSA with defunding ICE, you won't get any votes from Republicans, except Lisa Murkowski.

Good morning. Today, Senate Republicans will have the chance to FINALLY join Democrats and pass our bill to pay TSA workers.  Every Senator will be on the record. Will Republicans seriously block TSA pay, again?

Basically every major development in the Iran War has vindicated Trump’s decision to strike. 1) Overwhelming current disparity in traditional military capability = now is a good time to strike, we can destroy their capabilities with limited losses of personnel/material 2) Iran flings ballistics and drones at a nearly a dozen non-combatant neighbors = they are crazy and can’t be trusted with nukes 3) Iran opens negotiations with Witkoff with “we have enough 60% enriched material for 11 bombs and we will not give you anything at the negotiating table that you couldn’t achieve militarily” = diplomacy would not have solved the problem 4) Iran fires ballistics at Diego Garcia = they were not far from having ICBMs that could hit the Eastern Seaboard The case for hitting Iran is STRONGER than it was for ISIS!

The second the corporate media stops shilling for the script, you know the whole narrative just took a .50 cal to the dome. ABC straight-up says: Dems blocked the funding. The Hill: Dems blocked the funding. …Hold up. Where the hell is the mandatory “Republicans shut it down” lie they’ve been trained to vomit on cue for the last 20 years? When even the trained parrots in the press box suddenly go radio-silent and refuse to sing backup, the headliner’s already dead on stage. Curtain. Lights. Get the hell off. Show’s over, dipshits.
