Davis spent the Biden years positioning himself for a job in Trump’s second term DOJ, then immediately fumbled it by saying he wanted to “drag [Dems’] dead political bodies through the streets” the day after the election.

And a look back at our feature:

WIRED spoke with more than 200 federal workers in dozens of agencies to learn what happened as DOGE tore through their offices.

“For five months we were instructed to bring in our own toilet paper. I literally kept two rolls at my desk. I wish I were joking."

I feel like it should be a bigger deal that the Vice President of the United States rose to the defense of Republican operatives who openly talk about how much they like Hitler, slavery, and rape.

This entire argument by Louisiana and the conservatives questions are premised on an erasure of Congress’ enforcement power under the 14th & 15th Amendments.

Literally swinging for the fences to wipe out the premise for the legitimacy of Congress’ power to enact civil rights statutes.

Not to be outdone, the Trump Solicitor General says you have to overturn Thornburg v Gingles, the 1982 precedent upon which all Section 2 claims are evaluated.

“the constitution forbids race conscious remedies” would be news to the people who wrote the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments

Griem goes there, arguing in response to Justice Jackson that there can be no race-conscious remedy absent a finding of intentional discrimination.

It is insane to me that his approval is in the toilet, especially in the economy and the chattering classes just pretend it is not happening.

alternatively, trump's at 41% approval — that's pretty "sour" right?

In his interview w @jonfavs.bsky.social, @ezraklein.bsky.social asks, "why haven't the tariffs soured the public on Trump?"

An answer from my book on ACA opinions: the contemporary US economy is so diverse & complex that even sizable policy changes don't move opinions consistently.

Read the Reconstruction Amendments! It’s *insulting* to trot out vapid, debate-brain formalisms like the “colorblind Constitution” given the document’s most basic history and the words of its literal text.

The empty formalism used to constitutionally forbid diversity-enhancing or remedial action—that to “stop discriminating on the basis of race we must stop discriminating on the basis of race”—is possibly the most invidious trope the Roberts Court has cultivated in our modern legal culture.

I'll be writing about today's Supreme Court arguments in Callais v. Louisiana—which the GOP justices have likely teed up to nuke what's left of the Voting Rights Act—but for now, read up on the practical consequences of this case: a net 19 extra House seats for Republicans. slate.com/news-and-pol...
The Supreme Court Might Net Republicans 19 Congressional Seats in One Fell Swoop
On Wednesday, the justices will take the extraordinary step of rehearing Louisiana v. Callais.

Hi folks, like I told the 50501: People's Movement folks a few hours ago, photographer Anthony Vazquez of @chicago.suntimes.com must be credited!

Hi folks. You must credit the photographer on this. Please. Anthony Vazquez/@chicago.suntimes.com. It's not an exaggeration to say he risked grave bodily harm to get this.

The @chicago.suntimes.com photographer who risked their personal health and safety to take this photograph is Anthony Vazquez. Please credit photographers and media outlets. In this age of misinformation, a photo with no context could be anything at all.
