Yes …and we also need No King amendment.
1. President is subject to the same laws and has the same protections as other citizens
2. No preemptive or blanket pardons

Pardons are a constitutional license for lawlessness. Not even Supreme Court reform can fix that.

Paging Arlie Hochschild. Emotional labor needed on aisle 4.
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.

They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.

If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."

🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.

Last week I bought a book from Palgrave & they let me download a PDF (Yay). Avoid Routledge ebooks.

The @nytimes.com minimizing the unconstitutional assault on US cities so much that it didn't appear on the "front page" even on my big screen monitor. Had to export a pdf to capture the tiny headline. Truly atrocious. Does any major US news org care at all?

Was at an event with Jamie Raskin last night. He suggested one justice for each of the 13 circuit courts. Like Fed having regional governors.

they think liberalism is a set of rules for a discourse game, and not a fighting faith and a vision of the good

And if anyone at your university explains that this is structural racism, you will get your funding cut.
