Elie Mystal- The Supreme Court must be made to pay a price—a political, institutional, professional price—for its ongoing political thuggery lightly disguised as jurisprudence. Its members will never stop acting like the only nine Americans who matter until we stop them from doing that. And the only way to stop them is to limit their power, their budgets, and their unearned belief in their own supremacy.

The problem is aided and abetted by the elected branches of government. The Supreme Court has no army, but all presidents (except the last one) are willing to enforce the court’s rulings, even when those rulings are unmoored from reason or logic or fundamental fairness.

But the court’s greatest institutional accomplice is the media, which largely insists on covering the nine law shamans as they wish to be covered, instead of as the unelected, unaccountable poison that enfeebles the rest of American democracy.

White Supremacist’s Patriarchy whittles the Fourteenth into a corporate bulwark, humans need not apply: the men wrote into law limits not just on whether states can enforce Section 3 against “federal officeholders and candidates” but also how the federal government can do so.

Mitch McConnell, the GOP’s 82-year-old Senate minority leader who arguably has done more to bend, staple and mutilate America in the 21st century than anyone else, did so with zero charm or charisma, in the slow, ageless and ultimately inscrutable manner of the giant Galapagos turtle he so weirdly resembles.

The erosion of voting rights perpetuates systemic inequality and threatens the core of American democracy. Public trust in the electoral process and the legitimacy of duly elected representatives will continue to degrade. Without robust protections for voting rights, the voices of marginalized communities are silenced, and their ability to participate meaningfully in the democratic process is hindered.

Four candidates have received super PAC funding so far: marine veteran and tech entrepreneur Peter Dixon, Assemblymember Evan Low, Santa Clara County District 5 Supervisor Joe Simitian and former San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo. In total, super PACs have spent $1,923,185 in the race. None of the other seven candidates have reported support from a federal super PAC… If an advertisement says it's not paid for or endorsed by the candidate, McMorris told San Jose Spotlight he recommends voters be critical of the ad because it's coming from a super PAC.

Crow like #TFG doesn’t like paying taxes: “Any effort to mischaracterize a yacht used as a pleasure craft as a business is a run of the mill tax scam, plain and simple,” Wyden wrote.
Meanwhile, not only has Crow represented to the IRS that the boat is used commercially, but, in a bid to obtain a trademark for the Michaela Rose name and icon, his company argued the same to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. In his letter, Wyden noted that it is a crime to deliberately mislead either agency.
