Judge Pauses Abrego Garcia Case After Secret Agreement Reached

“* * As part of an apparent Trump-driven investigation under the guise of fighting anti-semitism, the EEOC sent a text to Barnard College employees asking if they are Jewish.”

Um, isn’t that “antisemitic”? Asking a person whether or not they’re Jewish? I mean, what other reason could there be?

Easy question, they’re not. They are supposed to grow up and behave exactly like White Nationalists/Christian Nationalists want them to behave. It’s pretty obvious that they agree with a great deal of Marxist theory, particularly when it comes to molding the model citizen, they’re just insuring it’s molded in their image*.

* Why yes, that was intentional why do you ask?

I believe it only needs to be adjuged ‘within the outer perimeter of the Prez’nents official duties’ by a majority of the current justices to offer immunity from criminal prosecution.

I am not a big fan of George Will, but on this characterization, I agree with him:

Am I the only one who hears that “Vladimir, STOP!” in a whiny, crying toddler voice?

I’m just glad the entire world isn’t laughing at us, like they did back when Biden was president.*

Phillips is so cute. He apparently thinks that Roberts and his gang have principles aside from advancing Leonard Leo and the Federalist Society’s agenda.

Fortunately, I’m pretty sure that the Federalist Society’s agenda does not include trashing the banking system. (I suspect it doesn’t include trashing the whole economy, but I’m less sure of that belief.)

So, Phillips should look for an unprincipled decision that preserves the Federal Reserve’s independence and kills (or incoherently limits) Humphrey’s Executor.

It’s also kind of sneaky if you actually are antisemitic. The actual Nazi’s used that in Holland to figure out who the Jews were. Ask someone if they’re Jewish in an innocuous kind of way, the people who are probably don’t answer, while the non-Jewish people say no. You can figure out the Jewish population by inverting the No results.

AI generated by a Trump simulacrum? Or just a nameless functionary pretending to be Trump. It would be like these boneheads to create “official” government documents with a nonhuman entity so that’s where I’m leaning.

Good article.

Today, it is clear that what has happened since January 20 is not just a change of administration but a change of regime—a change, that is, in our system of government. But a change to what?

There is an answer, and it is not classic authoritarianism—nor is it autocracy, oligarchy, or monarchy. Trump is installing what scholars call patrimonialism…

“The state was little more than the extended ‘household’ of the ruler; it did not exist as a separate entity.” Weber called this system “patrimonialism” because rulers claimed to be the symbolic father of the people—the state’s personification and protector.
