So student Ioans, environmental regulations, emergency Covid rules are Major Questions, but billions of dollars of Tariffs with world-wide consequences are not?
We will see (actually only hear) Wednesday. It has been a very long time since oral arguments fooled us.

Cuomo really thinks that getting endorsed by a guy who wants the government to bankroll his personal pet projects is going to win over blue-collar workers?

In other words, I hope ppl do not write this off as some version of ICE-specific bad behavior.

This is far more routine than that, and if we can make any lemonade out of the deluge of lemons we face, it’s making sure we don’t let the public’s outrage over this fade.

Johnson: "If they had no filibuster, they would pack the SCOTUS. You'd go from 9 to 17 or however many liberals they could pack. You would make DC & Puerto Rico into states, which would give 4 additional Democrat senators & make us a permanent minority. You'd see massive restrictions of 2A rights"

Instead of asking the Speaker of the House if he has a view on <critical separation-of-powers QOTD>, maybe reporters should start asking him if he reads any newspapers or otherwise informs himself on those matters to which we might think the Speaker of the House ought to be paying attention?

RAJU: Last week you were very critical of Biden's use of the autopen. But Trump admitted on 60 Minutes to not knowing he pardoned a crypto billionaire who pleaded guilty to money laundering. Does that also concern you?

MIKE JOHNSON: I don't know anything about that. I didn't see it. I'm not sure.

Trump still has not followed a court order to release SNAP funds for millions of people.

Meanwhile, he hosted a "Great Gatsby" themed party at Mar-a-Lago this weekend.

And he posted seven times about renovating a White House bathroom with marble and gold.

Priorities.

We need constitutional change through non-article-v means. Congress should legislate to, for example, expand the House and have weighted voting in the Senate by population. And then they should strip jurisdiction to protect that legislation against right-wing courts.
