Despite all the John Roberts claims that the courts are in good shape and accusations of partisanship are unfair, the reality is that the public intuition that the courts have become more politicized under Trump are correct.

When the Trump era ends, and it will, the U.S. should use Germany’s model in how they currently deal with Nazism.
In other words: as close to zero tolerance as a democratic country can get.

AOC: ICE has less accountability than virtually any law enforcement agency in the U.S., yet they are some of the most well-funded, operating with impunity—and we just saw them murder an American citizen in cold blood in the street.

This reckless move by the Trump Administration has nothing to do with science or informed choice – it’s about appeasing a debunked anti-vaccine agenda being pushed by RFK Jr. and his allies.
