Maybe the American people are beginning to realize that the Supreme Court is not a court, as @espinsegall.bsky.social has long maintained, but is instead a fundamentally political institution. And, under John Roberts' leadership as chief justice, it has become an overtly partisan agent of the GOP.

Jared Polis is a disgrace. He knows that the prosperity of Northern Europe, etc., where democratic socialism prevails, is quite high. This is yet another of his feints to the right. I would not be surprised to see him literally switch parties and become Republican.

Colorado Gov Jared Polis (D) is getting attention from the Right for his recent criticism of Democratic Socialists. “Socialism is a failed economic theory,” Polis told FOX’s Sean Hannity tonight. “I think it’s important to talk about the dangers of socialism.”

Judge Jia M. Cobb of the federal district court in Washington ruled that EPA has unlawfully ignored the Noise Control Act for more than 40 years. This is an interesting case for those interested in environmental and administrative law. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Welcome, Alec Vance. Little Alec has made history. He is the first child born in modern times to parents who include a sitting vice president. The last time? When Schuyler Colfax III was born (1870). Before that, VPs Hamlin, Calhoun, and Jefferson became dads while in office.

THREAD: The boy is called a liar. He’s told not to defend himself. Then the private school owner encourages all of his peers to attack him, one by one. She hits him, repeatedly, with a plastic pipe-like object. How does this school still exist — and receive state funds? 🧵
