- Reposted by Billy CorriherPretty wild to me how many pundits and academics treated Republican opposition to the notion of Supreme Court expansion during the Biden administration as a serious, principled stance, as opposed to a position Republicans would obviously abandon the moment it became convenient
- Reposted by Billy CorriherBro they're actually gonna get Maduro to say he helped rig the 2020 election in exchange for dropping the charges aren't they?

- Reposted by Billy CorriherHere's @mollycoleman.bsky.social from the streets of St. Paul, on the legal system that failed to prevent Trump's ICE occupation, and the people who stepped up to protect each other instead. "My neighbors have shown that the people of this country care about democracy enough to fight for it."

- Reposted by Billy CorriherUtah is the third state in the past decade where Republicans have packed their supreme court. Arizona and Georgia Rs did it in 2016 to secure right-wing majorities. North Carolina Rs tried it in 2018 to prevent the Dem court from overturning their gerrymanders, but voters rejected their power grab

- Reposted by Billy CorriherRepublicans have also expanded state supreme courts in Arizona and Georgia. A Democratic trifecta should have zero compunction over expanding a hijacked, runaway SCOTUS that has actively undermined democracy, enabled extreme gerrymandering and become the true source of the right’s political power.
- Reposted by Billy CorriherThe thing that shocks me most is that all of this incriminating stuff was sitting at the DOJ for 4 years and Biden & Garland were not cynical or ruthless enough to use it against Trump & Musk in the run up to 2024. If only they were the evil ‘weaponizers of government’ that MAGA claimed they were!
- Reposted by Billy CorriherRepublicans have advanced a bill to pack Utah’s Supreme Court in response to its rulings against their congressional gerrymander. It fits into a wider pattern of Republican court-packing: Arizona’s and Georgia’s GOP did it in 2016, and North Carolina’s GOP tried it in 2018 but was blocked by voters
- Republicans in Utah want to create a Constitutional Court, picked by the governor. State senators would have to confirm the judges, who would then decide whether their laws are constitutional. www.sltrib.com/news/politic...

- Reposted by Billy CorriherBREAKING: Republican lawmakers unveil the Make Elections Great Again Act — a new bill that would impose the most extreme federal voting restrictions in history. The measure would go beyond the SAVE Act by imposing strict voter ID to vote, mandating voter roll purges, banning mail voting and more.

- Just wanted to thank everyone who supported my new book. It means a lot. But I've decided to postpone the fundraiser. Between the weather and the government murder, it's a hard week to raise funds. I'll relaunch in a couple weeks, with a longer timeline. Thanks again. Stay safe, y'all.
- Reposted by Billy CorriherAbsolutely reprehensible that AG Bondi is offering ICE stand down in exchange for access to voting rolls. Outrageous and disgusting. It shows ICE is in Minneapolis is not for law enforcement purposes. Instead it’s a way to stir up shit in blue states and extort them.
- Reposted by Billy CorriherThe killings will continue until you give us the state voter rolls
- Reposted by Billy CorriherMultiple officials of the US federal government are spending their day rather blatantly obstructing Minnesota law enforcement and covering up a murder.
- Reposted by Billy CorriherThe attorney general is threatening a state that the federal government will continuing murdering its citizens in the streets unless they provide access to state voter rolls, a lawless demand which is the subject of ongoing litigation.
- Reposted by Billy CorriherDOJ lies. DHS lies. ICE lies. That has been established. Do not repeat their claims as fact. Their claims are arguments or, often, misleading propaganda — when not outright lies. They are seeking to make a case for their lawlessness (and to please Trump), not seeking to inform.

I can't wait to read this book, written by @billycorriher.bsky.social, who knows more about why state courts matter than just about anybody I've ever met. Check it out!
- The law the board disregarded was one of several passed in 2018 to handicap Justice Anita Earls’ first campaign. I guess the board decided that it doesn’t apply to Republicans. #ncpol 🧵
