The fundamentals of the 2024 campaign are still taking shape, but one thing is already clear: A flurry of actions might cost the majority.

In the past 9 days, & judges threw out 2 — & helped avoid a worst-case scenario in Ohio — kicking off an unusually busy calendar heading into the year.

"Republicans politicized the courts because the courts stood in the way of their racist, anti-gay, forced-birth agenda. If Democrats refuse to fight back, that agenda will be the law of the land, and elections will become the political force that doesn’t really matter."

"[Judge] Jones cleverly pointed out:

“Assuming jurisdiction over this criminal prosecution would frustrate the purpose of federal officer removal when the state charges allege — not state interference with constitutionally protected federal activities, but — federal interference with constitutionally protected state actions.”

That’s a bitter pill for infatuated with states’ rights."

The GOP wants to establish religious-based laws in America that restrict a woman’s bodily autonomy – her personal .

don't call it Sharia law, but it is similar to what the Taliban is doing in many ways.

= Freedom FROM religion

The USA is supposed to be a democracy, NOT a theocracy.

It's worth reading the whole letter, but especially from page 5 on wherein Fulton County DA Fani Willis beautifully demolishes fascist Rep. Jim Jordan.
She is thorough, professional and absolutely scathing. A perfect model of how to deal with .
Particularly noteworthy is how she calls Jordan an idiot (quite correctly) in impeccably professional language.

"Since the 2020 election, Republican leaders have enabled at four decisive moments.

1.after Biden won ... many Republican leaders questioned the results or remained silent

2. after Trump was impeached ... Senate Republicans overwhelmingly voted to acquit him

3. Republican leaders’ refusal to support an independent investigation [of Jan. 6]

4. Republican leaders ... will still support Trump even if he is convicted"

"A new liberal tilt to the court is driving Republican fears of losing their large legislative majorities, which were built under some of the most gerrymandered political maps in the country."

"Wisconsin Republicans have enjoyed outsize control of the Legislature in one of the most closely divided states for a dozen years. Maintaining that power is now at the heart of a drama involving the state Supreme Court that has national political implications."
