THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS

Federal Court on Friday says Ohio's Republican Secretary of State must allow county election boards to have more than one ballot dropbox.

SoS says fine, they can have more than one, but they all still have to be at the same place.

What a tool.
You know the best reason to vote them all out? They don't want you to vote.
The district court said more drop boxes.

The appeals court said nothing in the law prevented SoS from allowing more drop boxes.

So he's allowing them. All at the same place.
For context, Cuyahoga County has been trying to install drop boxes at county libraries.

But state Republicans are terrified that would help more Democrats vote.
I will amend the first tweet in the thread–should have read "can" not "must."

It will never not be confusing to me that today’s “Walter Reed” is not the old “Walter Reed,” which was shut down, but what I grew up calling the “Bethesda Naval. Hospital” (or just “Bethesda Naval”)
My late grandmother lived less than a mile away.
Wikipedia has a list of prominent people who died at the old Walter Reed

This is an amazing local creamery in Columbus that is a treasure of the state of Ohio.
To be clear, I would have gone with Cleveland’s @MitchellsCleve but @jenisicecreams is top notch.
But yeah. Ask Ohio Republicans. They know Jeni’s. It’s delicious. (I say this as a lactose intolerant man who hasn’t been able to eat ice cream in years).

My proposals for Supreme Court reform:

(1) Current Supreme Court building converted to legal history museum; justices return to hearing cases in the Capitol basement;
(2) Congress tells court it must consider every appeal; President Biden nominates the scores of additional justices needed to handle the increased caseload;
(3) Solicitors General barred from wearing traditional morning coat attire and must instead wear overalls like the real salt of the earth;

I was just moved to out-Sorkin Aaron Sorkin:

*ACB takes podium after a smug introduction by POTUS*

“Mr. President, I thank for for the honor of a lifetime. As a justice with fidelity to the constitution, I would look forward to decades of dispassionate jurisprudence. But....”
“given the rancorous spirit of the country, this intensely partisan election, questioned faith in the legitimacy of the courts, I cannot accept, and trust that no similarly fair-minded jurist could before the election, either.”
This won’t happen but it would make great, escapist television.
