Lincoln Project's Amicus Brief in TEXAS.

https://lincolnproject.us/news/amicus-brief/

Thank you.

I sure hope that wasn't what was finally submitted!

Sure, anybody can make an editing mistake, but having a line which says "Considered by Justice Marshall as the most" and then stops right there is an unfortunate error at this level of jurisprudence and legal practice.

Maybe a copy and paste error?

Certainly possible.

My PACER membership is expired, so I can't just casually go look it up to see if what was filed did not have that. If I hear from somebody elsewhere, I'll post.

The folks organizing today's White House 17 minute address insisted that attendees must wear masks.

That's a positive step.

I don't think they hit 2,000, though.

If it can be lied about, trump has lied about it.

About half of the hundreds of people who showed out to hear Quasimodo ring his bell were white enough that maybe they didn’t make the greatest props in the “blexit” campaign.

Quasimodo tried to keep his mind off of twenty years running consecutively for a full twenty minutes. That and drugs and his gross stupidity made him seem very nervous throughout. He fell short of the twenty minute goal, then retreated rapidly to catch his breath.

The relaunch, like everything else from the misadministration, was consistently inadequate, and will likely cost republicans as they bleed more support from the voters they need.
