I'm pretty tired of the "cracks are emerging" narrative. "Cracks" were "emerging" during the Epstein fiasco. During Signalgate. During COVID. Let's stop pretending that MAGA is somehow always on the verge of breaking up based on Just One Thing Happening. It's either a lie or delusional.

Under the guise of neutral principles. The entire project of originalism (a political, not interpretive, project) is to remove constitutional problems from the realm of contested political arguments, while at the same time imposing political preferences, under the pretext of neutrality.

I have been disheartened to see Catholic priests justifying the actions of the current regime as necessary, or a small price to pay for rolling back gay and trans rights. I hope this is a minority.

For the life of me I donβt understand going to the effort - time, money, everything - of running for Congress, winning, and then just rolling over. It makes no sense.

Itβs a terrible bill. It will literally kill people. The most vulnerable among us will suffer as the wealthiest benefit. Itβs perverse. I wish there were something I could do. But alas, I am only a U.S. Senator from Alaska whose βnoβ vote would kill the bill. So I voted yes. You get it.

One would think that Democrats would have some better targets in the midst of a coup/civil war/destruction of the Constitution and the rule of law/massive loss of rights than a Democratic candidate who just won an election.
