As Supreme Court moves closer to deciding the Trump business document cases before June, we will likely hear more of these attacks on the non-Trump-appointed justices both from Trump himself and from pro-Trump media
Here's the opinion that Trump is referencing, which (no surprise) he utterly mischaracterizes. supremecourt.gov/opinions/19pdf…
Sotomayor complains that the Supreme Court shows undue deference to the federal government requests for stays of injunctions.

Trump interprets these comments about undue deference to the government as "bias in favor of Trump" - because in his mind, "the government" = HIM

About "low information voters": South Carolina has a higher % of both high-school graduates and college graduates than Nevada. census.gov/quickfacts/SC census.gov/quickfacts/NV
How is it "low information" to heed the endorsement of a member of Congress who has looked out for your family and community since 1969 - but "high information" to be swayed by a podcast or Twitter feed?
A majority of Americans cannot name their representative in Congress. haveninsights.com/just-37-percen… If you know enough about Congress to be influenced by an endorsement by one of its leading members - you are by that fact alone a high-information voter!

A thread on dictators and development ...
Here's a chart of Russia/USSR GDP per capita before & after the Russian Revolution, courtesy nber.org/papers/w19425.…

Stalin's brutal forced industrialization policies did nothing more than to restore GDP/capita almost (not quite) to trend had the Bolshevik Rev'n never happened
Of course, GDP / capita misses something about the USSR. Because of Bolshevik Revolution, Civil War, 1920s famines, 1930s famines, etc. millions of "capita"s violently died.

This evening’s Supreme Court ruling allowing @realDonaldTrump to use military funds on a needed, effective border wall rejected by @TheDemocrats is deeply brilliant.

Our Founders designed a Republic governed by the people—not a monarchy—one based on law & our Constitution.
Constitution of United States of America 1789 (rev. 1992), Article III, Section 1.

“The judicial Power of the United States, shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish.
“The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour, and shall, at stated Times, receive for their Services, a Compensation, which shall not be diminished during their Continuance in Office.”
