Will American Democracy Survive?
Hitler took over Germany and destroyed their democracy all by legal means. Using his numbers in the legislature they prevented the legislature from passing any bills or doing any work and that got people so upset that to end the blockade they gave Hitler a high office which he used to get the military to set aside the constitution and pledge their loyalty to him personally. Next, the dictator fears the "intelligencia" the teachers, professors, scientists lawyers, historians, etc., and anyone with any scholastic abilities/knowledge.
The Constitution Doesn't Say That!
So Guantanamo was Constitutionally illegal because it was an effort directed specifically at compelling (by "enhanced interrogations") to become witnesses against themselves. That's the specific intention of torture and is therefore prohibited by the 5th amendment. bye, Gonzales and Bush you are both criminals.
Secret Service Denying Deleting Jan. 5 & 6 Texts Is 'Very Suspect'
Having a criminal President executing and involved in the planning of an insurrection, it stands to reason that the Secret Service would have a first-hand view of the security problems Trump was causing and if they did nothing to intervene then they could be culpable themselves, which is more than enough reason to want many text messages to be "lost".
The Uncharted Waters Of Reproductive Rights
Poorly thought-out Republican extremist ideological legislation is confusingly in conflict with so many normal and protected laws that it will waste an enormous quantity of time and resources to resolve the confusion and chaos that has ensued.

States may not interfere with interstate commerce which would be laws that prevent a citizen of any state from seeking lawful services or products in another state.
Watch MSNBC Prime Highlights: July 15
Republican overreach is now into interference with interstate commerce which is Constitutionally the domain of Congress. I sincerely doubt that any court can side with the states' efforts to interfere with and/or regulate interstate commerce as they try to do with these rabid anti-abortion laws. As for their citizen "vigilante" efforts, I kinda think that's a wee tad risky since should a court, by verdict or otherwise, fail to support the citizen's efforts, that complainer is then open to recovery actions.
Hallie Jackson NOW - July 15 | NBC News NOW
The "fist bump" is called for by the pandemic.
Biden has the welfare of a nation to manage, he cannot play with his responsibilities, he has to meet with objectionable people when the welfare of the nation calls for him to do so and when these people hold significant power. Sure "drill more domestically" is a solution but only if you can wait 15 or more months for an answer. Meanwhile, Manchin is now a known avowedly self-interested actor who panders only to self-enriching matters period. He lies pathologically about how he'd; "do this -- if that", but when the "if that" is done he magically has another objection. Enough with trying to please Manchin, he might as well be a Republican plant.
Watch All In With Chris Hayes Highlights: July 15
BS!!! They've altered bills and backed down, made concessions in an effort to get Manchin's vote and it has never worked. So don't even think about trying again and letting him make you all look like fools again. Let Senator Slimy go!

The answer is: The Trumpists replaced many agency heads and staff with sycophants as part of Trump's concerted efforts to remain in office like "President for life" Idi Amin.

Republicans In Frantic Denial Of The Cruel Reality Of Their Abortion Stance
So, while one Republican says that the abortion of a rapist's baby isn't an abortion, then they turn right around and seek to pursue the doctor who performed the procedure. Is this the kind of "reasoning" Republicans expect America to be able to work with? If you are voting for the Republicans selected candidates you are voting for people who believe that they can simply dream up whatever they please and it will somehow be true.

People are saying that they're really looking for a way to let Trump off the hook like Nixon and Bush. There appears to be no appetite to hold high officials accountable so the oft-cited phrase "No one is above the law", is little more than a punchline of a terrible joke we're going to be living with.
MTP NOW July 12 — Jan. 6 Hearing; Trump’s Potential Criminal Liability; ...
For sure if one takes each item of these events and looks at them by themselves one can manufacture a theory of innocence but, if you follow the story and pay attention to what Trump wanted to happen and how he went about conducting himself in the presence of his staff, you must realize that everyone is working to please the boss by making things happen and they are making up stories that bolster the view that whatever is being done is allowed because it's legitimate, expected and/or rational. No jury, after hearing all this evidence, could even think of any verdict other than guilty, guilty, guilty

OYEA, OYEA, OYEA, It will not work for Trump to try to blame others, he was the President and no one would have tried to overturn the election on their own, not one person, no matter how bad, would have even thought to move on trying to intimidate and/or threaten government officials for such a purpose as this without the consent of the President himself.

I guess that possible 2 years in prison doesn't look all that doable about now eh? I guess the sharpest lawyers took all his money and ran away leaving him with only the clowns hanging on. One thing you must give today's GOP is that there is no shortage of clowns among them. I was a "Rockefeller Republican" but he lost to Richard "I am not a crook" Nixon, it's been all downhill from there.

Poor/Bad poll numbers do not mean that people are not interested in voting for you. People may have a bad impression of ones overall performance on a host of single issues or even a group of issues and they may still consider the candidate to be better than the challengers.

Twitter is suing because if they don't they won't get the 1B breakup fee. Elon will have to settle to end it all and so he will wind up paying and moving on. This is all much ado about nothing,, Elon thought he could own Twitter comfortably but he discovered he had opened a political pandora's box and now he's trying to slam it shut. Twitter, on the other hand wants or needs that money!
