PAY ATTENTION. This is just one of several outrageous exchanges between a Supreme Court Justice and Trump's attorney today as Trump claims total presidential immunity.

Nothing matters more than stopping Trump this November. Every progressive cause, every progressive conviction, every progressive goal you have will fare many, many times worse under Trump. Our definitive purpose right now should be reelecting President Biden.

While America has served as a beacon for countries who believe in democracy, here’s a reminder why no country has ever adopted our absurd, anti-democratic Electoral College - one of the insidious remnants from our founding days which was designed to protect slavery.

PERSPECTIVE.
Within the last 24 hours, the Wall Street Journal had these three headlines… while the man from Florida calls the US economy a disaster and the country a cesspool.

#NeverForget the chaos of the immigration policies during the Trump administration. 5 years ago, Las Cruces experienced it first-hand.

When 1864 anti-abortion law passed with no exceptions for rape & incest, Arizona was part of Confederacy. At the time, anti-abortion movement was fueled by restrictions on international slave trade. Only way to increase slave labor was to force enslaved women to give birth.

Not only did Trump demand that his MAGA GOP cult in Congress not support the bipartisan border bill, but at the recent fundraising event in Florida he made clear that White Christian Nationalism is his immigration policy per NY Times:

On Saturday, the editor of The Cleveland Plain Dealer published a letter to its readers with this headline: “Our Trump reporting upsets some readers, but there aren’t two sides to facts: Letter from the Editor”

Not everyone was fooled by Trump’s staged “protect the blue” stunt on Long Island. NY Daily News, his hometown newspaper, calls him a liar on the front page.

I wrote a thing: "Agolf Shitler promises a 'bloodbath' if he doesn't win in November" — Donny goes full fascist again.

In the scheme of things, Trump’s mocking of Biden’s stutter is not the worst thing he has done, but it is indicative of a man without any discernible humanity. It brings to mind the famous quote by Joseph Welch to McCarthy. It applies to Trump:

“I should've gone to an acting school, that seems clear.
Still, someone said, "She's sincere," so I'm here.”
The Sondheim lyric sums it up best. Senator Katie Britt gave one of the most embarrassing responses to the State of the Union speech ever. But not only that.

Trump is continuing to show more of these phonemic aphasias: “Venezuero” instead of Venezuela. He's also demonstrating sematic aphasias: “steak mountain or steak hill,” instead of “Snake mountain.” Trump is continuing to slur words. #dementiatrump

I like this map.
Christopher Bouzy @cbouzyHere is my updated map after poring over Super Tuesday election data. Trump will lose North Carolina, and although Florida didn't vote on Tuesday, I now see red flags for Trump that will make Florida a toss-up. My map will likely change again before Nov, but I am confident the polls are way off.10:13 AM - Mar 07, 2024

Remember when Trump said that Haley voters and supporters "from this moment forth, will be permanently barred from the MAGA camp. We don’t want them, and will not accept them.”

More information on why the three liberal justices objected to part of the unanimous SCOTUS decision:
11:57 AM - Mar 04, 2024
Today, the SCOTUS unanimously decided to allow Trump to remain on the Colorado ballot, but importantly, they did not clear Trump of insurrection charges as his lawyers had requested.
AND… while the three liberal justices justices supported the overall decision, they made this important objection:

With results from a February 2024 poll of 823 voters leading the headlines, it’s important to have some perspective. In February 2004, John Kerry and John Edwards both led President George W. Bush by 12% and 10%. Needless to say, that was not how the election turned out.

Another way to look at Christian Nationalism is to remember that the Nazis essentially considered themselves to be a White Christian Nationalist Party.

More on the “respected” @nytimes poll. 49% of the 823 who completed the poll were Republicans while 43% were Democrats.

POLL FAILURE: Regarding @nytimes "respected" poll, here is its question on economy: "Thinking about the nation’s economy, how would you rate economic conditions today?" What they didn't ask is: "How are YOU doing economically?"
