Substantially harder to do that post-judgment than pre-judgment, I believe.

If this is true, and I have no reason to doubt it is, I would be looking for another career were I Mr. Kromberg.

You like a drink, but it's the guys who like 20 drinks that keep the industry going, and while they might well be helped a lot by GLP-1s I have some questions about whether they're going to take them.

That's just factually not true at all.

I'm neither a political strategist nor a pollster, but I have a hard time imagining a better way to make Latinos understand that you hate and fear them.

Can confirm, and I can confirm that this is true way outside Minneapolis or even the Twin Cities metro.

I mean, if a Democratic presidential aspirant who is serving in Congress really wanted to make a splash, they could do this themselves.

Anyways, dear reader, this congress has been wildly unproductive, and that includes things like appointments. The democrats have literally been as obstructive as possible in the senate and forced Thune to change the votes multiple times -after- wasting tons of time.

Sens. Cruz, Cornyn File Amicus Brief Backing Texas’ Emergency Application to Implement New Congressional Map
WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Sens. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Federal Courts, Oversight, Agency Action, and Federal Rights, and John Cornyn (R-Texas) filed an amicus brief in support of the State of Texas’ emergency application to the U.S. Supreme Court for a stay of the district court injunction that barred Texas from implementing its new congressional district map. The Senators did so in part on the basis of the Purcell principle, which holds that courts should not change election rules shortly before an election.


Sen. Cruz said, β€œThe Constitution entrusts redistricting matters to the states and to state legislators. The federal district court’s preliminary injunction was not made on the merits of the case, runs counter to precedent and to principles of federalism, and undermines the prerogatives of Texas lawmakers and the will of Texas voters. The Supreme Court should stay that preliminary injunction, and do so expeditiously in order to provide certainty in our election maps and rules as we approach deadlines for the 2026 election.”

Newsweek: Ted Cruz has proposed that Texas extend the state's Republican advantage in the U.S. House of Representatives to a full Democratic wipeout if Gavin Newsom goes ahead with a proposal to redraft congressional maps in his state in response to a similar plan by Republicans in Texas.

@tedcruz on X: A brazen abuse of power & an insult to democracy.

47% of VA voted Trump. They will now get just 9% of the seats. 

52% of VA voters voted Harris. Now they get 91% of the seats. 

(By comparison, in TX, 56% voted Trump; GOP gets 79% of the seats.)

Like his Confederate forebears, Ted Cruz talked a big game, started a fight, got absolutely dog walked, then cried about how unfair it all was. A story in four images.

I believe that we should end the filibuster. But it's worth thinking about how much the Republicans could change the country in two years of full control of the government in a world without it.

Attorneys behave the way courts allow them to behave. Litigants behave the way courts allow them to behave. If ICE doesn't follow court orders and isn't punished for it, why wouldn't ICE continue not to follow court orders?

Judge Blackwell called that hearing because he was concerned that ICE wasn't following court orders. Judge Schiltz called Todd Lyons in because he was concerned that ICE wasn't following court orders. ICE still isn't following court orders. What are they going to do about it?

My feeling is that attorneys on these cases should be filing contempt motions every single time that the government fails to comply with a court order.

I'd also gently suggest that Kennedy Center reporting, while important, may not be at the top of the heap in terms of what has been cut today.

Bring back honor. If you are in charge of an organization and send an email detailing this many failures in its strategic vision, you need to resign at the end of it.

All through my teens & 20s I recall being told that it was easy to spot the cops: they were the ones always focused on encouraging others to engage in violence & property

Now I come on social media & I'm told that no, actually it's the people encouraging you not to who are really the cops
