My Week in Tweets and Memes is up! Have great weekend. https://open.substack.com/pub/statuskuo/p/the-week-in-tweets-xs-and-memes?r=1zr8b&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

We were all expecting an indictment of Trump yesterday, but we didn't expect it to be a superceding one in FL. But it was worth the fake out. Happy Schadenfriday, as we dive into new and damning allegations! It's like Watergate, but stupider. statuskuo.substack.com/p/like-watergate-but-stupider?sd=pf

There was a real human toll to Giuliani’s and Trump’s baseless attacks upon election workers. Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss are back in the news because of a big concession by Giuliani. I explore that and what bought them to the federal courthouse. https://statuskuo.substack.com/p/ruby-freeman-and-shaye-moss-score?sd=pf

So much good news on the economy hit lately that I had to put it all into one place to celebrate it properly. This is bound to put a smile on your face and hope in your heart. https://statuskuo.substack.com/p/need-one-bit-of-good-economic-news?sd=pf

The red states are really trying it: defying both federal authority over immigration and the Supreme Court’s rulings mandating new Congressional maps. Where do things stand, what’s driving this, and where will it lead? A red state smackdown is overdue. https://statuskuo.substack.com/p/time-for-a-red-state-smackdown?sd=pf

As this may be indictment week #3, it makes sense to zoom out a bit and take stock of where things stand. As the legal walls close in, Trump’s star in his party rises ever higher. But where will this all lead? Our laws are not our politics, after all. I break down why that is and why that matters, in today’s piece. https://statuskuo.substack.com/p/our-laws-are-not-our-politics?sd=pf

Two hotels, two sets of conspirators, all working toward the same goal: overturning the 2020 election. Jack Smith’s team has pierced the silence around the Willard Hotel and possibly the Trump International Hotel. And that has far reaching consequences. I delve into the deets in today’s piece. https://statuskuo.substack.com/p/conspiracy-to-obstruct-a-tale-of?sd=pf

The target letter sent to Trump on Sunday contained a surprise: a likely indictment under Section 241, first enacted right after the Civil War. I unpack that law in today’s piece and show why Trump should be very concerned. https://open.substack.com/pub/statuskuo/p/conspiracy-against-rights?r=1zr8b&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

Jack Smith began his investigation a bit over seven months ago. And it is now culminating. Trump is freaking out over something we have long expected: a letter indicating he is the target of Smith’s investigation. I unpack what we know so far. Justice is coming. https://statuskuo.substack.com/p/the-target-letter?sd=pf

Three recent stories out of the South show a growing challenge to federal authority. And that spells trouble for our country. I walk through these today and draw some common, disturbing threads. https://open.substack.com/pub/statuskuo/p/three-southern-states-three-deadly?r=1zr8b&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

My look at three stories making the news, as well as a very personal note, in today’s piece. https://statuskuo.substack.com/p/the-week-ahead-252?sd=pf

It's July, and a grand jury in Georgia will convene next week. A political eathquake could soon follow. I break it down in a piece I wrote for The Big Picture. https://open.substack.com/pub/thinkbigpicture/p/georgia-willis-trump-election-interference?r=1zr8b&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

The last installment of my look at the SCOTUS term is about judicial restraint--or rather lack thereof. In what ways did SCOTUS rewrite or invent rules to achieve the desired result? Take a look with me. https://open.substack.com/pub/statuskuo/p/unrestrained?r=1zr8b&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

The extremist majority on the Supreme Court has been messing with another important guardrail for our system: standing. Toward the end of this term, they seemed to pull it out of a hat to advance a political agenda. I dive into how they did it and what it means, in today’s piece. https://statuskuo.substack.com/p/standing-out-of-nothing?sd=pf

Today, an essay, on how I felt to discover the Founders were not as had been portrayed, nor much else wholly truthful about American history. Also, how I recovered from that disillusionment, my eyes still on the prize of the promise of America. https://statuskuo.substack.com/p/independence?sd=pf

We’re rightly focused on what the Supreme Court has done to abortion rights and race-conscious affirmative action. But they way they gutted these precedents has legal observers very worried. I explain why and what that means for the rule of law in today’s piece. https://open.substack.com/pub/statuskuo/p/unprecedented?r=1zr8b&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

Rudy decided to be Queen for a Day, and that’s pretty terrible news for the Trump White House and its former chief occupant. What does his proffer mean in, and what information did he divulge? We’ll take a deep dive today on these questions. https://statuskuo.substack.com/p/its-rudymentary-donald?sd=pf
