@mu_phd @bonchieredstate In general sure, but after the completely inaccurate 2020 census it might actually be the opposite. They over counted blue states and undercounted red states.

@Darternole1 @bonchieredstate If SCOTUS says apportionment can be based on counts of citizenship alone, CA & TX lose 2-3 members of Congress, Florida, 2.

“I don’t like your argument so I’ll dismiss it” isn’t an actual counter. Not having a few metroplexes dictate all policy is a viable reason to support the electoral college and believe it leads to less damaging outcomes. We don’t have to accept your “muh democracy” premise.
James Surowiecki@JamesSurowiecki

@SaveTheLibs That's not an actual argument. It's just hand waving bullshit.

@mu_phd @bonchieredstate Uncap the house and make a citizenship question on the census. California shouldn’t have even more House seats because they welcome illegals.

@bonchieredstate The Permanent Apportionment Act of 1929 that fixed the house at 435 members is doing a lot of damage to our process and our politics. WY voters have way more power than the founders imagined. x.com/mu_phd/status/…

@paleonormie My impression of the electoral -college is that most people would be indifferent to it, but because we haven't @UncapTheHouse since 1929, we have dramatically increased the distortion between small state and big states.

There's no good civic argument for the electoral college. It was arguably necessary to ensure the ratification of the Constitution, but it's an anti-democratic device that gives some American citizens far more voting power than others, based purely on where they live.

@thedannistar @JamesSurowiecki @FrankBraconi Uncap the house to add more electors and ban winner take all in the EC. It would be a good balance to being closer to the popular vote as well as not fully eliminating the EC

@MrAriyeh @ShaBacksTheBlue That’s cute. It doesn’t mean their fake asylum cases have to be granted. They’re get 5 minutes for a credible fear hearing and if denied they’re gone.

Exclusive: The Trump administration has fired two immigration judges who blocked the deportations of Rumeysa Ozturk and Mohsen Mahdawi, two int'l students who expressed pro-Palestinian views. Four other judges were fired on Friday too.

@slk0803 @WasAnActionGuy @NickNehamas You’re an idiot. They’re not article 3 judges. They’re nothing more than attorneys working at the DOJ, which the executive has complete authority to fire.

@mikeydoubled @Theurb @ASFleischman Well Regulated in the time that the second was written was meant to be in good working order. It had NOTHING to do with restricting the types of arms available.

@Theurb @ASFleischman "well regulated" in the 2nd gives congress a hell of a lot more leeway than anything in the 14th does.

In legal reasoning, saying that something is clear or obvious is often a way to avoid making the argument. If you want to say that it is obviously bad policy, fine. It is probably also obviously bad policy to make guns inexpensive and widely available. Still a right, though.
Greg Price@greg_price11

It just feels so painfully obvious that the 14th amendment does not mean that a 9-months pregnant woman from Mexico can cross the Rio Grande illegally, give birth, and be allowed to stay because her child is now a natural born citizen.

@chewpok @JonathanTurley Because Thomas said he wasn't sure it was legal in the immunity case, and no one agreed with him. Also, it is legally ridiculous, which is my opinion as an attorney.

Eric Swalwell is threatening legal action if the FBI releases files on his alleged intimate relationship with a Chinese. It is not clear how the court can bar the release if the government redacts protected information... foxnews.com/politics/swalw…

As the Supreme Court is poised to rule on Trump’s request to end birthright citizenship - it might be a good time to mention the fact that Ivana was not a US citizen when Don Jr, Ivanka & Eric were born, and Melania was not a US citizen when Barron was born.

This is where they don't wont you to believe your own eyes. Minnesota wanted to investigate. The FBI took over. Then cut Minnesota out entirely. The state no longer has access to the evidence, the witnesses or the scene. The ICE agent who killed Renee Good, a 37-year-old U.S. citizen, in Minneapolis on January 7 will face no criminal charges. The DOJ ruled it justified self-defense. DHS said Good "weaponized her vehicle." Video analysis showed her car was turning away from the agent when he fired. A family autopsy found she was shot in the head. Minnesota wanted to investigate but the FBI took sole control within hours, cutting state investigators out of the evidence and scene. Vice President Vance said the agent had "absolute immunity." The shooting was the first homicide in Minneapolis in 2026 and the ninth time ICE agents opened fire on people since September 2025. The agent, Jonathan Ross, is an Iraq War veteran who was dragged by a car during a separate arrest six months earlier. Good's killing sparked national protests and triggered the ongoing DHS shutdown. No independent investigation was conducted.

This is crazy. Trumps 1st endorser Jeff Sessions appointed Mueller!! He indicted 25 Russians. The report was so straightforward the GOP senate report echoed it. Then he retired and went back to private life. For this he deserves the president grave dancing on him? Trash.
Brit Hume@brithume

Quote: "Mueller’s family didn’t deserve the president’s grave dancing. None of Trump’s many enemies do. But Trump also didn’t deserve Russiagate. Nearly a decade after that phony scandal, our republic is still trying to recover." thefp.com/p/robert-muell…

You mean the illegal program that Obama created via Exec. Order?? The Trump Admin. is working at the edges to reduce the effectiveness of an illegal program? And that's a bad thing? You mean it might lead some who lose DACA coverage to self-deport?
Gregory Royal Pratt@royalpratt

NEWS: The Trump administration is reviewing DACA renewals so slowly that the delays are causing people to lose their jobs, licenses, and deportation protection. It’s happening across the country. Our Sunday story with @LAURA_N_ROD chicagotribune.com/2026/03/15/dac…

Another day, another spectacularly horrific Black-on-White murder that no one hears about, that would be the number one story in the world if it were White-on-anyone-else. On February 13, Black 21-year-old Alexander Lamar Banks was driving around, admittedly looking for people to kill, when he spotted a White mom and dad, out for an evening walk, pulling their 3-year-old daughter in a pink wagon in Delta Township, Michigan (77% White, 11% Black). That's when Banks targeted them, accelerating his car in their direction, driving off the road, and smashing through the White family. Banks then exited the vehicle, retrieved a shotgun, and fired multiple rounds, hitting all three family members and killing 3-year-old Harlow Smith. He reloaded the weapon before approaching Harlow's dad and shooting him again at close range. Banks punched the White father in the face and beat him with the shotgun. He then grabbed the White mother by the hair, twisting her head and trying to break her neck when she attempted to intervene. A 72-year-old White woman named Barb Cook saw what was happening and ran toward the murder scene to try to help the family. With his gun empty, Banks smashed 72-year-old Barb repeatedly in the head with it. He hit her with such force that her hair and flesh were later recovered from the muzzle. After beating Barb, Banks dropped the gun and fled. 37-year-old dad Cameron Smith, 33-year-old mom Paige Smith, and 72-year-old Barb Cook all survived the encounter that claimed young Harlow's life. Barb Cook required brain surgery and facial reconstruction, and went into a coma (as of the most recent update, she remains in that coma). Now, we wait to see how easy the system goes on Alexander Lamar Banks when it's inevitably determined that he was “not in the right state of mind” and has the IQ of speed bump. To recap, a Black psychopath quite literally hunted a White family, in public, in the light of day, running them down with his vehicle before shooting them repeatedly and savagely beating them in someone's front yard, killing a 3-year-old, then bludgeoning an unrelated 72-year-old grandma into a coma, and virtually no one knows, or will ever know, that any of this happened. But everyone on Earth knows that a White girl said a magic word on a Minnesota playground last year.
