I don't feel qualified to evaluate how well an opinion mirrors authentic originalism because I think originalism is already inauthentic. It's like asking me if THESE reiki crystals are REAL reiki crystals. Skip me with that bullshit and leave it for FedSoc's Chick-Fil-A bag lunches.
@kenwhite.bsky.social I’d love to hear some takes on how wildly un-originality Thomas’ dissent is. Not a constitutional scholar here by any means, but it felt like there was a lot of contortion going on.

I want to reiterate that this shit is nuts. A federal invasion of state-run elections, an intelligence community invasion of federal law enforcement, a White House invasion of a criminal investigation, and a president’s insane treasonable sore loser obsession all rolled up and muddled together.

The hometown newspaper that I read as a teenager through Watergate and Vietnam and made me crave the life of a reporter is now being butchered by a billionaire who had $75 million to bribe and flatter a president and his wife but nothing to save journalism, an bulwark of the republic itself. Got it.

Putting on my suit and tie and going on America Erwache to describe a 234 year old basic requirement of the constitution for lawful searches and seizures as a “nonstarter.”
Rep. Mark Harris: "Some of these things are nonstarters. Having judicial warrants? To me, hat's a nonstarter. Being able to make off their mask, putting them at risk? That's a nonstarter. I would say anything that's going to hamstring the work of ICE, that's just not going to go anywhere."

I deleted my OP bc I was distracted and wrote "plaintiffs" instead of defendants; my point was, DOJ is taking loser cases as far as it can bc it can spend endless time and money to grind people down.
The fact that the cases are meritless actually makes them MORE effective for intimidation. Prosecuting actual criminals sends no broader message. They’re saying: “Piss us off and we’ll find some bullshit reason to tie you up in court whether or not we have any chance of making it stick.”

The obscenity (and the menace to Jews) of these officials pretending any of this police state assault on our constitutional order has anything to do with concern about antisemitism is off the charts. Just diabolical.
Effective immediately, the government says it will begin screening immigrant social media for activity that officials think indicates support for antisemitism.
