Bad gets worse: Thomas first failed to recuse because he didn’t know of his wife’s activities, an untested factual assertion the Chief Justice has failed to examine. Now Thomas knows because it’s public info and still fails to recuse. This has a reek. https://t.co/q7d5XKlXZg

Fascists
Telltale: “taking Roe off the table clears the way for other agenda items.” Really? “Agenda”? “Agenda items”? Since when are courts supposed to have — or care about — “agenda items”? Once again, the quiet part is said out loud. https://t.co/1i2vTeqTWU

Our media sucks
“The Speaker of the US House of Representatives was targeted for assassination by a MAGA extremist. Period. The evidence of the corruption of America’s political media is the existence of a two-sided debate around the one-sided cause of violence & murder.” https://t.co/ZKi6xM2pEu

Buying control
Every day I learn of some new Republican sugar daddy bankrolling regressive candidates and policies. Today it's Tim Dunn and Farris Wilks. Never heard of them. Both are billionaires AND pastors.

Originalism
As @ScottTurow writes in @VanityFair, originalism is a manufactured methodology that “allows the dead hand of a disreputable past to place a choke hold on citizens today.” https://t.co/wryrUCEVbS
