I lived in Lo de Marcos 6-8 months of the year for 10 years. Sold casita and left in 2020. Got too crowded, developing too fast. Real estate values sky rocketing. Not Cancun or Sayulita yet, but that is the future.

Collins goes all-in on reelection With so much at stake, Collins is using every bit of influence she’s amassed over four decades in office to help boost her reelection chances.

A "Zahltag" Moment, in a United States of “On To Cincinnati” The crimes of Trump & Epstein are heinous, dark, and deep—but the perpetrators walk free. To survive as a democracy, we can't "turn the page." We must hold the traitors to account. Here's how.

Originalism. Yeah, That’s the Ticket By Tom Carter

“Constitutional Originalism is little more than anti-Vatican II in drag.”

“Originalists on the Supreme Court are tantamount to Ouija board enthusiasts, contacting the dead and mind reading what the Founding Fathers were thinking in 1787”

Samuel Alito Opens Up About Antonin Scalia and the Path from Roe to Dobbs In an exclusive interview, the Supreme Court justice remembers a friend and conservative icon’s legacy.

Another crack at canonization for Opus Dei adjacent Scalia, via an interview w Opus Dei adjacent Alito, by far right Newsmax reporter, in German owned trumper publication.

Were Scalia, Alito or Rosen in Epstein files? Just asking 🤷‍♂️

Kneepads sold out all over DC.

HHS Has Been Using Anti-Trans Language From a Christian Right Think Tank The department refers to gender-affirming care as “sex-denying procedures,” a term coined by the Ethics and Public Policy Center.

“The term has no basis in medical or clinical practice. It originates instead from a conservative Catholic group called the Ethics and Public Policy Center (EPPC)”

Leonard Leo & Robbie George sit on the EPPC board.

You can thank Opus Dei Kevin Roberts & Opus Dei Roger Severino. Sixty staffers, all backers of Project 2025, resigned ostensibly over anti semitism. Crisis mag, an Opus Dei adjacent Catholic mag, says the Fuentes kerfluffle was about Heritage returning to its uber Catholic Paul Weyrich roots.

Rough here in the trenches. I started in 2010. I warned, over and over, day after day, time and again.

DC reporting royalty were deaf, dumb and blind.

It made zero difference. I’d do it again.

May Leonard Leo, MAGA Catholics & trump spend eternity in the 9th circle of Dante’s inferno.

When I worked for Reason magazine during Trump's rise to power in 2016, I was explicitly forbidden by the editor in chief from writing about Trump's racism, or the violence and racism at his rallies.

It was a "sideshow," I was told.

Vatican Optics and Chicago Cardinal's Pro Forma Demand that Donald Trump Apologize for Last Week's Racist Tweet. Calling for an apology from Donald Trump in the wake of his recent vicious, racist post which targeted former President and Michelle Obama is a shrewd, if pro-forma optics move.

Three Emails & a Captured Supreme Court The following are three emails I sent to a top DC reporter — two in 2010 and one in 2011 — regarding Leonard Leo and his efforts in DC…

The emails I sent @davidcorn.bsky.social and @motherjones.com in 2010-2011.

It was like going to a police station.

“I think Leonard Leo is about to murder democracy.”

“Dont waste our time. Nothing to investigate without a body,” said top investigative journalists.

The Silence of the Journos by Tom Carter

Note to readers today from @davidcorn.bsky.social @motherjones.com

“You know me. When it comes to reporting the truths other reporters don’t see or don’t pursue, I don’t hold back.”

I first contacted Corn in 2010.

Check MJ archives to see its reporting on Leonard Leo.
