This man is a certifiable idiot with ignorance whose depth is beyond imagination. But the scary part is that he is a voting member of the U.S. House of Representatives. I'm not making that up. — PolitiTweet.org

"As originally understood, the right to carry guns either concealed or openly is not only limitable but also has been limited by legislatures from before the beginning of the Republic." The Second Amendment reflects that original understanding. https://t.co/iezp2xkTCw — PolitiTweet.org

Bloomberg: “As the world enters the 23rd month of the coronavirus, the number of confirmed dead has now surpassed a once unthinkable number—5 million. And the real number is likely much higher.” — PolitiTweet.org

I’ll be discussing this morning’s pair of SCOTUS abortion arguments on the TX heartbeat law with @ErinBurnett on CNN at around 7:30 ET tonight. Hope you tune in. — PolitiTweet.org

“Procedure is never just about procedure,” Prof. @TaraLeighGrove1 rightly observed. “Jurisdiction is never just about jurisdiction.” Keep that in mind when live streaming the pair of SCOTUS arguments on Nov 1 or when scouring the transcript for tea leaves. https://t.co/UbjTINkkHQ — PolitiTweet.org

“An agenda that focuses on intervention, beefing up gun law enforcement, and better background checks would not only be more likely to survive in the court, it might also do more to reduce gun violence.” https://t.co/NYM3dwZ9g8 — PolitiTweet.org

If even @FoxNews calls for gun safety when a tragic shooting accident happens on a movie set, surely a city like #NYC should be able to implement sensible gun laws consistent with the Second Amendment's history, which @judgeluttig's amicus brief shows this concealed-carry law is. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m not endorsing the “quickening” compromise, but using that rather than “viability” as the dividing line for the constitutional right to choose abortion should appeal to originalists, as this piece explains by correcting the history. . . . https://t.co/A26cAV7gwM — PolitiTweet.org

A challenge to today’s “conservative” justices: Will they see the constitutional flaw in Tx abortion law as clearly as Scalia would have? See this @walterdellinger thread: — PolitiTweet.org

The Higher Educ Act gives the Sec’y of Ed explicit authority to “compromise, waive, or release any right, … claim, lien, or demand.” So the president’s legal authority to cancel all $1 trillion+ of federal student debt seems solid. https://t.co/EHzGG3pnJT https://t.co/EHzGG3pnJT — PolitiTweet.org

Note well: None of these materials even arguably constitutes confidential policy advice or attorney/client communications, so none could be privileged even if Trump were still president. Which only he thinks he is, by the way. — PolitiTweet.org

This is not just “playing with fire” but directly threatening murder. It’s not just so much talk. Real threats are not protected as free speech. — PolitiTweet.org

The 700+ pgs of docs Trump is trying to keep secret don’t even count as the kinds of advice that executive privilege or attorney/client privilege are designed to shield. They’re the overt traces of a criminal conspiracy to overthrow the elected government! https://t.co/0OYFDBugoq — PolitiTweet.org

This case exposed a fault line within the Court’s right wing: Barrett & Kavanaugh are more hesitant to say religion trumps public health than Thomas, Alito & Gorsuch when asked to act without full briefing and argument — on the so-called “shadow docket.” https://t.co/IxiQ1dHtJG — PolitiTweet.org

This SCOTUS intervention is manifestly premature. As the Merrick Garland DOJ’s brief said, the opponents of EPA action are asking the Court “for an impermissible advisory opinion” about what kinds of power plant emission regulation will pass muster. https://t.co/69K1a6loy0 — PolitiTweet.org

This is as blatant a violation of the First and Fourteenth Amendments as we’ve seen in a long time. It must be challenged in federal court and struck down quickly and emphatically: https://t.co/JlN7z4RU7D — PolitiTweet.org

SCOTUS acted prematurely in granting cert in the greenhouse gas case. I reluctantly argued years ago that Obama’s Clean Power Plan went beyond the Clean Air Act, but Biden’s EPA has yet to formulate its plan to regulate greenhouse gas emissions. https://t.co/Izfw0FbtKh — PolitiTweet.org

Ten Republican-led states file groundless lawsuits over Biden’s vaccination mandate for federal contractors. Policy aside, the mandate is clearly within the authority delegated to the president by Congress. And it makes good public health sense as well. https://t.co/nhTzIZ9YBU — PolitiTweet.org

“Justice Barrett may think it’s worth slowing the pace of change to make it more durable, proposed Professor Kate Shaw of Cardozo Law School. A majority that says less may provoke less backlash and thus, in the end, accomplish more.” https://t.co/j1vzEXY8EM — PolitiTweet.org
