“This case ultimately asks where one branch’s authority ends and the public’s right to know begins — and who gets to draw that line,” writes @SCOTUSBios in today’s column about cases on SCOTUS’ docket. lawyerport.com/chicagolawbul…

Looooool So the GOP paid this kid $250k for viral marketing. And instead they gave El-Sayed his strongest clip of the cycle! Amazing!

This is an extraordinary gift to Russia, and it could potentially even redound to Iran's benefit as well. Money sent to Russia can end up sustaining its ally, Iran. He's harming our allies and propping up our enemies to try to marginally affect the midterms. Extraordinary.
Three weeks ago Trump signed the Lindsey Graham Russia Sanctions bill as a testament to Graham's commitment to put an economic stranglehold on Putin. Today Trump announces we're importing massive fuel from Russia

Hoping for a @GinaHinojosaTX win. She has my vote. That said, having lived in Texas for over 40 years, it's one of those see-it-to-believe-it events. Abbot is being dragged down by Paxton, apathy, school vouchers, property taxes, etc., but $$, turnout, and name recognition matter. #fingerscrossed

It took "courage" to strip women of their most basic human right? It took "courage" to tell women what they can do with their own bodies? What an absolute irredeemable POS. Just sick and gross and ugly and evil.
Sam Alito wants you to know that it took courage for him to overturn Roe after the decision was leaked and that it cost him friends.

Hillary Clinton was never President. As Secretary of State, Clinton could have been impeached. All civil officials are subject to impeachment under the US Constitution. But Donald Trump was never in Congress. Only Congress has the power of impeachment.

I say this every 2 years, but I do not think having partisan elections for every judicial post is the best way of doing judges. I say it consistently so no one thinks I’m saying it because this or that party is going to win this time. It’s just a very clunky system.

Holy smokes! He is completely divorced from the reality Americans are living. I bet there are a lot of Republican candidates right now who are privately thinking, "STFU, Mr. @POTUS. You're KILLING us!"
Trump: I would give us an A+ on everything. Look at inflation

Just an incredible amount of dishonesty.
CHARLIE KIRK SHOW: Gotta give you some flowers. Dang! So you had text messages from Jack Smith's team confirming he was going to a Hawks game, and he sat there acting dumbfounded? ERIC SCHMITT: It was the only NBA game going on at that time in Atlanta. He claimed later that he was at another game. Here's the thing -- my job is to ask the questions (All of Schmitt's facts were wrong and were debunked during the hearing in near real time, but The Charlie Kirk Show hosts won't acknowledge that)
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Sen. Eric Schmitt mixed up references to the Iowa Hawkeyes women's college basketball game with the Atlanta Hawks NBA game when questioning Jack Smith. Smith attended the Feb. 3, 2024 Hawkeyes game in Maryland (not Atlanta). reuters.com/world/us/forme… thehill.com/homenews/senat… hawkeyesports.com/news/2024/02/0… basketball-reference.com/boxscores/2024…

Those are some very annoyed judges.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court stayed lower court orders requiring Missouri to use its 2025 congressional map in November, allowing the state to continue using its 2022 map. The Court cited its earlier stay and concerns about changing election rules after voting has begun.
