"Mohammed is the most common name in the world, yet when Alaskans vote for their next senator, they’ll find two Dans Sullivan and zero people that Islamophobes can scapegoat." buff.ly/VlHrHsU

i am inviting anyone from a legacy media organization to explain to me why the house judiciary dems report on trump’s epstein’s ties and multiple allegations of rape isn’t worthy of extensively reporting on. i’m serious. i want to understand.

Litman: Susan Collins walking back her vote to confirm Kavanaugh sounds familiar... Murray: Believe Black women.

The powerful executives who cozied up to Trump didn't oops accidentally forget about pendulum swings. They either: 1) Like the fascism 2) Calculated it was here to stay, so going along was savvy 3) Saw no real downside, no consequences when the pendulum swung Crucial to show them 3 was a mistake

Not that long ago, three major lower-court rulings against the executive branch on three unrelated topics would’ve been a busy *month,* and outlets would’ve rushed to write up such a run of adverse rulings. Now, it doesn’t feel unusual when we get three on the same *day.* It’s all … exhausting.

Make Gutter Racism Disqualifying Again

Call your Congressmembers To ask them to have the EPA web archive preserved and kept accessible to the public. Leave messages. 1-202-224-3121 switchboard.

In a little-noticed webpage update, the Environmental Protection Agency has announced a plan to decommission its online web archive at the end of the year, a move that would wipe tens of thousands of publicly available environmental resources from the web.

Steve Voguit, the co-owner of a local i9 Sports franchise that removed a 3-year-old Black child from the youth soccer league after parents called police and complained he was too good, follows several MAGA accounts on Instagram.

This. And if most Americans weren't aware of this in 2019, I'd guess they're even less so now. Public university students were paying for a third of the cost of their education in 2009, and it was up to half by 2019. 2009 wasn't great compared to the 60s-70s, either. www.pbs.org/newshour/edu...

"libertarian candidate for state senate in north carolina is currently in a shootout with the cops and live-tweeting his planned suicide", while not exactly surprising, is still a weird thing to read

#USDemocracy #louisiana KEEP THEM HONEST! KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

Trump's attack on free and fair midterm elections that should be familiar to anyone who has lived through the Trump era: The severity of his threat to democracy is matched only by his pure absurdity.

This is a near perfect article whose only defect is the fact that it refers to them as Dan Sullivans rather than the correct Dans Sullivan. www.washingtonsun.com/national/dan...

This earlier quote post of mine is leading me to find so many academics, and we're all into niche things (like @design-law.bsky.social's interest in design patents)! People say we're budding Machiavellis and most of us are just Marge trying to convince our students potatoes are neat.

A week ago, the SEC fined Tennessee $500,000 after its fans rushed the field. That money went to Alabama. This week, the SEC fined South Carolina $500,000 after its fans rushed the field. That money went to Tennessee. You're on the clock, Oklahoma. Pay it forward.

Court's opinion on Article II reads like a treatise on the removal of inferior officers. It's quite well done.

Judge rules in favor of Maurene Comey. Will write up a short thread once I find the order. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/26/n...

“The Department of Justice is putting its formidable thumb on next week’s elections in a way that seems clearly intended to call into question the legitimacy of any result that is especially unfavorable to Republicans—before those results have even come in.” Me on DOJ’s California and Alaska suits:

A single billionaire megadonor is propping up the Republican effort to stop Dems from flipping Pennsylvania’s Senate and gaining full control of government—to a much greater degree than Elon Musk is doing it at the federal level

Leave him on the runway

#ScheduleA plaintiffs: There's nothing unfair about email sevice Judge Gettleman:

Told my husband that the vibe on Bluesky tonight can best be described as “Ewok party.”

I’m going to tell my grandchildren this was Trump

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 If Nicki Minaj becomes press secretary then...

We’re definitely at the “Caligula makes a horse a senator” phase of shit

Congrats to Lula on overcoming Mark Zuckerberg and Donald Trump to defeat Hospital Pervert Jr., even as his opposition literally blocked off roads and turned off bus service during election day. Fascists are scary but they are always, 100% of the time, ultimately gigantic fucking losers.

Lol. Glad it just gets more ridiculous

But then the refs decide Because a helmet came off, there is a 10 seocond-runoff, so the half is over,. going to overtime. EVEN THOUGH IT WAS BYU WHO RIPPED THE HELMET OFF THE KID. BYU, in other words, avoided letting UCF take a final shot by committing an obvious, dangerous personal foul.

@rickhasen.bsky.social was posting up a storm on why DOJ's Alaska and California cases are hot garbage (my words, not his), so I thought I'd join him in the pool. C'mon in! The water's fine.

Sam Alito: Nothing overtly racial about these statements!

The soaring costs of public universities is a political decision. When these schools predominantly served white students, they tended to be free (UC, CCNY, etc.) But as the number of students of color has increased, funding for the public universities has decreased. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/25/b...

Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted
