Donald Trump tried to steal the election in 2020 and, by all accounts, he and his MAGA minions are going to try again in 2024. But how likely is it that they'll succeed? The good news is that since 2020 we have some new guardrails in place to make it even harder for them to overturn another Biden win.

Senate Republicans blocked legislation establishing a binding code of ethics and stricter recusal requirements for Supreme Court justices.

A day later we learned that Clarence Thomas received even more free vacations from GOP megadonor Harlan Crow.

You can't make this stuff up.

All nine Republican senators running for reelection this year just voted against the Right to IVF Act:

John Barrasso
Marsha Blackburn
Kevin Cramer
Ted Cruz
Deb Fischer
Josh Hawley
Pete Ricketts
Rick Scott
Roger Wicker

So much for the party of "freedom."

Trump's not running for office so much as running from the law.

What a lying liar. https://secondnexus.com/trump-clinton-lock-her-up?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=infeed&utm_campaign=linkprogram

Trump's most obvious lies (like pretending he never led chants of "lock her up) are perhaps the most disturbing.

Telling lies that everyone knows are lies is a classic tactic of dictators to force their followers to side with them over the truth itself.

A pro-insurrection flag flew outside Samuel Alito's home after January 6th.

Clarence Thomas’ wife worked to overturn the 2020 election.

Both justices are set to rule on cases related to January 6th and subverting the election.

Is it any wonder Americans don't trust SCOTUS?

Every day the Supreme Court fails to make a decision in Trump’s immunity case is effectively a decision in his favor.

They're acting like an arm of Trump's campaign by letting him run out the clock on his prosecution.

When I was a mere clerk for the 1st circuit appeals court, I wasn't allowed to have a political bumper sticker for fear of creating even the appearance of bias on the court.

How can Justice Alito be allowed to rule on Jan 6-related matters after flying a pro-insurrection flag?

Each of Trump's 34 criminal counts of false business filings in the New York case carries a penalty of up to four years in prison.

If Trump is convicted, what should the sentence be?

Your regular reminder that if not for the Trump and Bush tax cuts, federal revenues would keep pace with federal spending indefinitely.

Instead, these tax cuts have added $10 trillion to the debt.

The so called "party of fiscal responsibility" is full of it.

Trump would let states monitor pregnancies and prosecute people who violate abortion bans.

He would use the National Guard to deport undocumented people.

He might fire US Attorneys who refused to prosecute his enemies.

None of this is conjecture. He said these things himself.

I know that it was overshadowed by Trump's lawyers arguing that presidents should be able to murder political opponents, but I don't think I'll ever get over Clarence Thomas hearing a case related to Jan 6 knowing that his wife was an active participant in the attempted coup.

Why does this always happen?

There were 4,349 book bans across the US during the fall 2023 semester.

That's more than the bans reported during the entire 2022 school year.

Nothing scares conservatives more than a multi-racial generation of young people who ask critical questions and speak truth to power.

Ginni Thomas was directly involved in efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

Yet Clarence Thomas didn't recuse himself from arguments today in a case about the January 6 insurrection.

How is this not a scandal of epic proportions?
