🚨BREAKING: The U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS) has allowed Alabama to select a different map for this year’s congressional elections in a stunning, last-minute move to interfere with another state primary election that has already begun. democracydocket.com/news-alerts/sc…

Supreme Court today: We'll allow Alabama Republicans to change the congressional map in the primary election even though absentee voting has literally already started Supreme Court last December: November's too late to strike down the GOP's map in TX's March primary election!!

No opposition party can accept this state of affairs and retain respectability, and getting Democrats to understand that latter point prior to January 2029 is critical to the survival of democracy in the U.S.

Trump's billion-dollar ballroom is now so toxic that some vulnerable House Republicans don't want to vote on it. This is important, because to Trump/MAGA, the ballroom represents a potent symbol of his imperial/dictatorial presidency. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/210187…

Virtually no coverage by the US media on “Honduras gate,” the alleged plot by Trump pardoned narco kingpin, Juan Orlando Hernandez, Javier Melli & Bibi Netanyahu to poison public opinion against the presidents of Colombia & Mexico. And yes, there are tapes. Another whitewashing.

My latest @NYTimes oped shows that the White House is dramatically understating the cost of the war in Iran. By my calculations—and I show my work—it will cost the typical American family thousands, and it could cost them tens of thousands. Gift link: nytimes.com/2026/05/08/opi…

I wrote on Monday about Pete Hegseth and Gen. Francis Donovan ramping up lawless boat strikes, which amount to extrajudicial killing. This week there have been 3 more strikes! Truly out of control. Awful that the US military is doing this and the world barely notices. wapo.st/4tOygA5

Fantastic conversation between @shikhadalmia and Jamelle Bouie, especially the rebuttal to the Ruy Teixeira/Third Way overreading of the meaning of 2024. Highly recommend: theunpopulist.net/p/where-will-t…

Confederate states are rushing through rigged maps to erase Black districts off the map. If this doesn’t make you angry, it should.

The journalist who is being sued by Kash Patel and reportedly being investigated by the FBI is out with a new story. Is there a Pulitzer for being a fearless badass? If so, she should win it. theatlantic.com/politics/2026/…

Trump's war with the Pope is going very badly. New poll finds 66% approve of Pope's message of peace, while 57% reject Trump's attacks on him. On the pod, Sarah Posner is brilliant on how MAGA's deification of Trump persuaded him he could win this battle: newrepublic.com/article/210049…

This is an insulting, xenophobic, and false claim from Tom Homan. The people who have died in custody include some who were actively undergoing treatment for medical issues; treatment which was disrupted by their ICE detention.
CBS News@CBSNews

When asked about the rising number of deaths in ICE custody, White House border czar Tom Homan defended the agency’s treatment of detainees. “We're dealing with people from third world countries who've never seen a doctor before,” Homan told CBS News’ @camiloreports.

I wrote about how young and fragile multiracial democracy actually is, about why Reconstruction is such a crucial historical reference point, and what lessons and implications its rise and fall offer as we are now facing the second “Redemption.” steady.page/en/democracyam…
