I’ve been thinking for a while that Slaughter and the preceding decisions are really attacks on the idea of law itself. So I’m very glad to see @nathantankus.bsky.social taking up this argument. www.crisesnotes.com/agency-indep...

Psaki: Gross violent pornography part of the speech, circus entertainer + unrelated vignettes. He doubled down on tariffs (72% of Indep. disapprove of), doubling down on immigrations (58% disapprove). If you're a Repub running for office, that is not a speech that helps you win.

The more people we speak to, the more we hear that the public is uninformed about what’s happening.
Those who read only “the Times and the Journal,” as one scientist said, or “still use Twitter,” are getting poor info.

But Trump shd be held ineligible for a reason indep of the 22d Am: Per Sec 3 of the 14th Am, he’s ineligible as an oathbreaking insurrectionist against the US Constitution for trying to upend 2020. In Trump v Anderson, SCOTUS held only that States cdn’t keep him out of their primaries on that basis.
Anyone discounting a 3d Trump term per the 22d am + the 12th am is thinking magically: The 22d dsn’t bar *serving* a 3d term, only being *elected* 3 times. The 12th dsn’t bar running for VP unless “ineligible” to serve as Pres, but Trump isn’t ineligible. QED!
