The Supreme Court Left No Doubt: It Will Gut the Voting Rights Act

The ruling, when it comes, will be disastrous for Black voters and for Democrats.

El auge del neofascismo llena el vacío dejado por la incesante guerra contra la clase trabajadora, mientras que las principales instituciones políticas ignoran la desolación que deberían haber combatido.

¿Y lo bonito que hacen ahora los soportes? Parecen un homenaje a las gruas de la construcción, lo cual, en Madrí, no puede ser más ad hoc.

Okay, the End of the Ultimate Universe (from my perspective):

It’s true that the original plan was not to “end” the universe. A lot of my run is setting up characters I hoped would go on past me, I think I’ve made that clear and obvious.

As anticipated, Raina and I will sadly *not* be appearing at the Library of Congress this Saturday, due to the ongoing U.S. government shutdown. 😢

We'll let y'all know as soon as the event is rescheduled, presumably after things return to normal.

La consecuencia más lamentable de cómo Marvel Studios ha dilapidado su crédito por pura codicia es que ahora su oferta, simplemente, ya no interesa. Y IRONHEART, sin ser tampoco gran cosa, es mucho más decente y sólida que otras series del MCU que han recibido la atención que se le ha negado a esta.

Again, it is a full-blown federal felony crime for anyone in the White House or Executive Office of the President to order tax investigations into anyone.

And it's not just a crime to DO it, it's even a federal crime for an employee not to REPORT such an order to the Treasury Inspector General.

26 U.S. Code § 7217 - Prohibition on executive branch influence over taxpayer audits and other investigations
U.S. Code
Notes

Subsection (a) shall not apply to any written request made—
(1)to an applicable person by or on behalf of the taxpayer and forwarded by such applicable person to the Internal Revenue Service;
(2)by an applicable person for disclosure of return or return information under section 6103 if such request is made in accordance with the requirements of such section; or
(3)by the Secretary of the Treasury as a consequence of the implementation of a change in tax policy.
(d)Penalty
Any person who willfully violates subsection (a) or fails to report under subsection (b) shall be punished upon conviction by a fine in any amount not exceeding $5,000, or imprisonment of not more than 5 years, or both, together with the costs of prosecution.

(e)Applicable person
For purposes of this section, the term “applicable person” means—
(1)the President, the Vice President, any employee of the executive office of the President, and any employee of the executive office of the Vice President; and

Subu Vedam spent over 4 decades in prison for a murder he didn't commit.

Now, ICE is trying to deport him by citing a decades-old deportation order based largely on his wrongful conviction.
