Brighton Beach doing its best to promote Coney Island, it seems. Also NYC Parks has a sign saying it’s also Neil Sedaka way, so it’s all up for discussion.

These beach boardwalk selfies make it look like the boardwalk was empty, but it wasn’t. There were cyclists & strollers & pooches & park staff, & cops telling that guy at the next bench to turn off his music (he cursed them out to me under his breath as he passed)… So, plenty of good people watching. Coney Island definitely has more open shops than here, I admit.

They ran and danced in their pink tutus. They followed mom, listening dutifully.
Earlier, a pair of young women held a cartwheel contest (six), and a dad helped his daughter try and fly a kite. Add-in a few cute pooches, & the beach & #boardwalk were plenty fun.

Beautiful design, beautiful buildings, beautiful day; trip to Brooklyn beach on the express train definitely worth it. Taking advantage of my phone shooting in fish eye.

What a trip to the beach! Some sea glass, but most I returned to the sand. No shells this time, my house plants have plenty.
Here are shadow snaps of surf, & backpack, & me, as happy proof.

Beach time! Express from Times Square came quickly; ride was just under an hour. A few blocks to the beach and BAM there you are, toes in sand.

They also used the network to line their own pockets.
Over the next few years, their personal wealth would skyrocket as they skimmed off tens of millions of dollars in advisory fees.
These pools of dark money were also used to boost various initiatives directly or indirectly that were associated with Opus Dei:
the Catholic Association,
the Catholic Association Foundation,
Catholic Voices USA,
and the Catholic Information Center on K Street,
where Leo now sat on the board,
all became beneficiaries of this largesse.During the Donald Trump years,
conservatives
— led by Leonard Leo
— took control of the Supreme Court.Following the appointment of Neil Gorsuch to replace Antonin Scalia,
two more seats had become vacant during Trump’s presidency,
allowing him to create a solid conservative majority.One of those seats had become vacant just weeks before the election,
following the unexpected death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg.Leonard Leo was once again asked to help find a replacement.
At one Federalist Society event, his good friend Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas jokingly referred to Leo as the third most powerful man in the world,
presumably behind the pope and the president of the United States.“God help us!” Leo had responded.
But following Ginsburg’s death, not even God could rein in his ambition.
Rather than offer a concession candidate, given the proximity of the election,
Leo put forward #Amy #Coney #Barrett, a protégé of Antonin Scalia who was openly hostile to Roe v. Wade.It was no coincidence.
A few months earlier, Thomas E. Dobbs, the Mississippi health officer, had lodged an appeal at the Supreme Court after the Jackson Women’s Health Organization
— Mississippi’s only abortion clinic
— had successfully challenged a state law that banned abortions after fifteen weeks.An injunction against the state’s enforcing the law had already been upheld by two separate courts,
but a Dobbs win at the Supreme Court directly challenged the premise of Roe v. Wade
and created the opportunity the Catholic right had craved for so long
to overturn almost fifty years of abortion rights.Coney Barrett was confirmed on the Supreme Court just eight days before the election,
critically giving the court a strong
anti-abortion bias as the case was being considered. -

Anti-abortion attorneys ascend federal government ranks with Christian right legal training
The conservative Christian law firm Alliance Defending Freedom’s expansive ties include federal judges and most recently Speaker of the House
The nonprofit law firm that helped Mississippi solicitor general Scott Stewart argue and win the #Dobbs case
— the Alliance Defending Freedom
— has worked for three decades to change laws to fit an explicitly #conservative #Christian worldview when it comes to reproductive and family issues,
💥with a focus on ending legal abortion and limiting trans rights. 💥
#ADF’s systematic strategy to effect generational changes, according to its website,
includes 🔹targeted litigation and legal training. 🔹
Constitutional legal experts who study the religious right say the anti-abortion movement’s best chance of keeping unpopular abortion bans on the books is through its growing 🔸network of conservative attorneys and judges 🔸cultivated by ADF and allied Christian law firms and law schools.
ADF has employed and trained thousands of like-minded conservative Christian attorneys,
some of whom have climbed the highest rungs of power,
including new U.S. Speaker of the House #Mike #Johnson (R-Louisiana) and several federal appellate #judges, state house #representatives, a former #attorney #general, and a conservative New York Times #opinion #columnist.Some of ADF’s trainees have gone on to #clerk for #Alito and fellow conservative Justice Amy #Coney #Barrett, according to a recent New Yorker report.
“They know that their ideology is unpopular, and in many cases, anti-equality or even downright unconstitutional,”
constitutional attorney Andrew L. Seidel told States Newsroom, about ADF.
(He is the vice president of strategic communications for the progressive group Americans United for the Separation of Church and State and has written books about the religious right movement. )
🔥“They are trying to build up these networks to capture the courts, to capture the legal professions.
👉Because they can’t win otherwise.”

Justice #Amy #Coney #Barrett’s opinion was just a page long, all of two paragraphs.
But in distancing herself from both blocs in Monday’s nominally unanimous Supreme Court decision rejecting a constitutional challenge to former President Donald J. Trump’s eligibility to hold office, she staked out a distinctive role.Justice Barrett was the third of Mr. Trump’s appointees, rushed onto the court after the death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, arriving just before the 2020 election. But she is viewed as one of the more moderate members, relatively speaking, of the court’s six-member conservative supermajority. At oral arguments, she can convey a mix of intellectual seriousness and common sense.
In public appearances, she is adamant that the court is apolitical, though she sometimes says so in venues that undercut her message.
In 2021, for instance, Justice Barrett told an audience in Kentucky that “my goal today is to convince you that this court is not comprised of a bunch of partisan hacks.”
-- She was speaking at the University of Louisville’s McConnell Center, after an introduction by Senator #Mitch #McConnell, Republican of Kentucky and the minority leader, who helped found the center and was instrumental in ensuring her confirmation. Last year, she was the featured speaker at the annual gala of the #Federalist #Society, the conservative legal group.“This suit was brought by Colorado voters under state law in state court,” Justice Barrett wrote.
👉“It does not require us to address the complicated question whether federal legislation is the exclusive vehicle through which Section 3 can be enforced.”Having established that she sided with her liberal colleagues on the #substance of what they had to say, she questioned their #tone, calling it #strident.
Members of the court who disagree with the majority, she said, face a choice, adding that her colleagues had made the wrong one.

Not gonna eat all of it. But today I’ve reached a milestone, this is the only #Michigan / #Detroit style diner in #Charlotte that I’m aware of that serves #coney dogs and chicken Greek salads, and, well, I think I deserve it.

ICYMI, Amy #Coney-Barrett is in a literal #cult called People of Praise that enforces the concept of “#handmaids” which brutalizes all girls and women into subservience.
Importantly, every person in Coney-Barrett’s cult is bound by their “#religion” to listen only to “the coordinators” — which is a group of five old white men — for their instructions.
Not the Constitution. Or even the Bible. The fucking “coordinators.”
