Your voice is more important than ever and should be free for all. @theatlantic.com Have you thought about reaching more people through voluntary contributions and subscriptions just like The Guardian? 🙏🏼

The Atlantic could cut to the chase and do a cover story that is a simple book report on Sinclair Lewis' 1935 novel, "It Can't Happen Here" with lots and lots and lots of excerpts, including this one here: bsky.app/profile/jell... (and by "simple" I mean at a 6th grade reading level)

We are all Legal Realists now — Critical Legal Theory has won… but from the right. How ironic.

Awful recent SCOTUS decisions: EDUCATION ruling INJUNCTION ruling IMMUNITY ruling OVERTURNED Chevron giving THEMSELVES, *not* experts, final regulatory authority OVERTURNED Roe v Wade IMPAIRED EPA GOP Justices are ruling according to their PERSONAL BELIEFS, *not* the law or the people's interest!

Yes, it’s the dissenters who are changing how the supreme courts work… 🙄

A story this important doesn't belong behind a paywall... or so I have to imagine, being unable to actually inform myself.
