Jamie Raskin calls on all Republican members of Congress to stand up. When will they finally take the side of the rule of law over their fear of the wrath of a wannabe dictator? When is enough enough?

The greatest domestic extremist threat comes from the far-right fringe of the MAGA movement, where religious nationalism, racism, and anti-constitutional politics increasingly converge.

The MN GOP didn’t hold a moment of silence for George Floyd. They did for Derek Chauvin. A movement on the right has been pushing Trump to pardon Chauvin for his fed conviction. Hopefully he won’t, but his record of pardoning violent offenders when it serves his interests makes it a real danger.

Rather than confront the core issues affecting Americans, Trump focuses on aesthetics and grandeur. That is the autocrat’s playbook: accumulate power, ignore the needs of the majority, and distract from the resulting failures with political noise and chaos.

Introducing Washington Walk & Talk, a new video series from The Steady State offering short, expert-informed updates from D.C. on the warning signs of growing authoritarianism in America.

Democracies usually die when mainstream actors fail their gatekeeping function. To every editor, judge, university president, law firm partner, and elected official reading this: your job description just got more important. To everyone else: your job is to make sure they do.

Authoritarian politics: declare a target corrupt, assign a loyalist to investigate, then insist it is just accountability.

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”
— George Orwell, 1984

When detention facilities operate behind walls, the public has to rely on families, local officials, journalists, and protesters to force visibility. Delaney Hall is not just an immigration story. It is a rule-of-law story. Oversight is not optional.

Insider trading laws exist because markets can’t function when the people with privileged information trade on it. The President sits at the top of every information channel in the U.S. government. His own disclosures show 3,700 trades in 90 days.

Last month, President Trump attempted to illegally withhold SNAP funding, adding to his disgraceful record of making Americans’ lives harder. As he continues to threaten Colorado’s food assistance, I will keep fighting for our state to ensure hungry families have the food they need.

Anyone who’s ever heard of billiard legend Van Hammersly

To combat gerrymandering, fight fire with fire. The Virginia Supreme Court struck down the citizen initiative for a new Congressional map. The legislature can fight back. Here I describe Quinn Yeargin's idea to use the state constitution to retire that court:

plants and bones had white stuff in the center – called marrow. So the thin layers of white in the internal part of the thalamus were called INTERNAL MEDULLARY LAMINA. #neuronurses know stuff #neuronerds #neuroanatomy #nursingschool #nursing

A man ate food on the police car bonnet and then vandalised it. Why...

This fck talks so casually about not following the law. He gets two terms and that’s it, and he’s all done. He isn’t special. In fact he’s one of the worst presidents ever and the USA can not afford Trump.

Persuasion (1995), avoid the 2022 one at all costs. The Red Violin (1998), Ars longa, vita brevis in movie form, with the added bonus of extreme closeups of Samuel L. Jackson being moved to tears Not a movie, but The Brokenwood Mysteries, all 12 seasons on a damn loop.

U.S. Army veteran Jon Gundersen on Trump's Arc: "It's a little ironic that somebody who avoided service with daddy's rich help talks about honoring veterans. If you honor veterans, you do it the right way…It's got to go through the congress."

Wrong, Hezbollah was formed to fight the 18 year Occupation of Southern Lebanon between 1982-2000 and forced their withdrawal; they will do the same thing no matter how long it takes this time
