This is completely insane @Facebook! Irami Osei-Frimpong literally quoted the Declaration of Independence and accurately stated that “domestic insurrections” was referring to slave revolts. He now has a 30 day ban!

The internet: It's entirely undemocratic for the SCOTUS to have so much authority and no check by the people! Me: Yeah, that's the entire point. Put another loss in the column of the American education system.

Letting the federal govt determine the legitimacy of its authority over the states is akin to letting the Lakers call their own fouls in a game against the Nuggets. newstribune.com/news/missouri/…

#SCOTUS isn't "allowing" anything. They don't decide what to "allow" and "disallow." They hear legal arguments and resolve legal disputes and decide the proper application of the law. npr.org/2021/08/26/102…

The TX abortion law will eventually be struck down, I'm confident. Seth Meyers, whoever, demonstrates his ignorance by stating that an unelected court's refusal to overturn a legislative act is undemocratic. What does he think "democracy" is? foxnews.com/media/seth-mey…

"'What goes around comes around. And if the Democrats can do it, the Republicans can do it,' Breyer told the news outlet." Indeed. thehill-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/thehill.co…

I'm always amused when someone declares "the law is settled!" as if they've spoken some unbreakable oath, not realizing that was the slave states' position after Dred Scott.

Remember, if you never talk to the FBI, you can't be charged with lying to them. There is nothing more American than refusing to talk with law enforcement. #ConstitutionDay npr.org/2021/09/16/103…

I love this story. "The city government decided to take the property under the guise of eminent domain" in 1912. Now the family gets it back. Now, let's undo the rest of the eminent domain forfeitures in the country. All of them. insideedition.com/california-bil…
