Comey Indictment Shows Danger of Subservient Prosecutors
The political prosecution of a presidential enemy has left the government with a seemingly unwinnable case β and a justice system tainted by politics.
Halligan may have obtained the indictment the president wanted, but it...one thing to get a grand jury to indict. Getting a conviction is an entirely different matter. New from me for @brennancenter.org A discussion of the flawed Comey indictment. www.brennancenter.org/our-work/ana...

Why Jimmy Kimmelβs First Amendment rights werenβt violated β but ABCβs would be protected if it stood up to the FCC and Trump
Think you know what the First Amendment means and protects? You β and a lot of Jimmy Kimmelβs defenders β may well be wrong.
Jimmy Kimmel's defenders called his suspension an attack on the First Amendment; one said it was the most "straightforward attack on free speech from state actors Iβve ever seen." Is it? @profunger.bsky.social explains what the 1st Amendment does/doesn't protect theconversation.com/why-jimmy-ki...

Iβve passionately disagreed w/ Kirk on almost everything. But I respect his right to say it. As an American value, we must not, we cannot, allow violence to creep into our free speech & civic dialogue. We do not shoot those who we disagree with; rather, we must engage w/ respectful civil discussion.

Dems Leadership wasted an opportunity to rebrand the Big Beautiful Bill when it was under consideration by Congress.
Big Barbaric Bill

American federalism divides power between the national and state governments.

My uncle presented a great idea tonight. All sellers of goods should post the total price of a good on the price tag (with the tariffs) AND the total price of the good *without* the tariffs imposed. Then Americans can see for themselves how much they will be paying as a result from Trump.
