When Trump tries to indict his political enemies on pretextual grounds, grand jurors have the option of refusing to indict. When prosecutors ask for a conviction, jurors can refuse to convict. The Trump administration can treat this government of the people as his own mob enforcers, but the people need not acquiesce. When Trump abuses his power to settle political scores, the people can choose to nullify.

Trump’s political prosecutions require members of the public—specifically jurors—to go along with him. Every time Trump wants to prosecute one of his political enemies, the people should say: no. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Remind me, where did most of the Nazis who weren’t part of Operation Paperclip flee to?

I can hear this picture.

I feel like someone (less lazy than me) should do a social media game called “dog toy or sex toy”

There are a lot of people who claim to love basketball who are doing themselves a huge disservice by not watching women’s hoops.

Lots of 60-year old Black people were saying the same thing in 2008. Anti-black Racism is just as deep in our culture.

No one should get violent threats. But if you’re gonna change your vote because of it, you should resign. I’Ve been getting violent threats all week and not only do I have no intention of shutting up, I think it’s evidence that we need to say it louder

moments ago, ice agents again came out of the broadview detention/“professing” facility to escort a silver suv out of the lot.

one of the agents picked up and threw congressional candidate kat abughazaleh to the ground.

In my defense, I didn’t know the Wings were going to trade away half of their stars and the other half would be injured all year.

I am 1000% ok with this turning out to be a freezing cold take.

I was only able to be redpilled for like seven minutes at a time, because somebody then had to use the phone

Can you hit repost? Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn't want you to know the name of her opponent but will try every desperate attempt to save her seat.

My name is Shawn Harris. I am a Democrat, husband, father, Retired Brigadier General, farmer, and I'm running against MTG. Can you share and follow me?

Federal agents detained two firefighters in Washington state...

...while the firefighters were in the middle of fighting one of the largest wildfires in the country.

She's right.
Yet most Democratic leaders and most of legacy media are acting like it's politics as usual but with a tacky buffoon at the helm. It's much worse.

Dan Haar: CT has matched Boston's offer for the Sun but WNBA is blocking a deal, sources say "I see it as economic development and this is Connecticut's one chance to have major league sport here," Sen. Martin Looney said.

Gotta it seems like the NBA is maybe violating anti-trust laws and the idea a team moving from Uncasville to Hartford is a relocation when it allowed at team to move from Manhattan to Westchester to Brooklyn in recent years with no problem is precedent www.ctinsider.com/news/article...
