  1. > Reforms that would break the supermajority right-wing Court’s grip on the country — its operating as a legislative veto for Democratic administrations and a hall pass for Republican ones — would go far beyond docket management and ethics reforms, though. Term limits, court packing, jurisdiction stripping — the ideas lighting up the intellectual left and spreading to Democratic officials would overhaul the Court as we know it.

    There’s a Way to Stop Trump’s #IRS #SlushFund

    by #JamieRaskin

    These days it takes a spectacular burst of #corruption to get the attention of our scandal-weary nation, but #Trump & his admin have managed, once again, to transfix Americans by establishing a $1.776 billion “anti-weaponization” fund in the #DOJ that will undoubtedly be used to line the pockets of Trump’s partisans & foot soldiers — with your tax dollars.

  5. > We, the American people, want affordable gas, groceries and health care. Republicans in Congress are giving us bloviating culture war attacks on religious liberty instead ....

    The real threat to our Constitution comes not from adherents of a particular religion, but from turning our backs on the Constitution and the First Amendment. Our freedoms are not under siege by a religious minority trying to build a community center, but they are undermined by lawmakers who would want to turn Americans against each other on a religious basis.
