Excellent analysis from @democracydocket.com on increasingly public pushback from lower court federal judges who object to the procedurally irregular way Supreme Court is undermining them and bolstering Trump lawlessness. https://www.democracydocket.com/analysis/federal-judges-supreme-court-trump-emergency-orders/#LawFedi

@heidilifeldman almost every person in the Supreme Court needs to be punched in the face. Twice. I LOVE seeing the fight from judges in smaller courts. They, on the other hand, need some chocolate. We should hand deliver some.

The "Court that Koch Bought" is staying bought.

Who knew how effective ideological zealotry, partisanship, influence peddling, religious bigotry, and bribery would become since Citizens United?!?

Seid's $1.6 billion bought the civil rights erasure of 167 million American women.
