At last week’s oral argument in the Trump immunity case, Justice Gorsuch defended the Court’s focus on hypotheticals by saying it’s “writing a rule … for the ages.” Today’s “One First” explains why that’s the *exact* problem with how #SCOTUS appears to be approaching this case:
LIVE: National Press Conference Launching June 29th Mass Assembly and Moral March on Washington x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
539 UT Austin faculty, representing all ranks and 15 of the University’s colleges and schools, signed an open letter expressing a lack of confidence in President @JCHartzell. The letter has also been sent to the leaders of the @Faculty_UT Council.
almost every student from the encampment has been arrested. students are in direct heat & were having their umbrellas taken from them #UTAustin
Anthony Simmons should NOT have died from a seizure in Harris Co jail. We KNOW that there are huge disparities in neurological care for incarcerated and detained ppl. @HCSOTexas, what “medical aid” was rendered? What is the status epilepticus protocol? @TxJailProject @texas_ppc

“A democracy cannot survive when its supreme leader can arbitrarily decide that it’s in the nation’s best interest to rub out his opponents, and then leave it to some future court to decide whether it was an official act, because he’ll get away with it as long as there aren’t 67…
This new @UTAustin policy seems preposterously (if not unconstitutionally) overbroad. Anyone who is *arrested* for trespassing, but never charged (let alone convicted), is permanently barred from campus? What if the arrest was bogus? What if the arrestee is a student or employee?

The UAW has reached a historic tentative agreement with Daimler Truck ahead of the contract’s expiration at midnight on Friday, April 26, after mounting a massive campaign and strike threat against the multibillion-dollar manufacturer. uaw.org/uaw-reaches-hi…
New protest rules form today: @UTAustin says those who have previously been arrested for trespassing aren’t allowed on campus. I asked if it matters if charges were dropped, a UT spokesperson said it doesn’t. @statesman
Team Trump in 2021: “Congress should leave Trump's crimes to the courts.” Team Trump in 2024: “Trump's crimes can’t be left to the courts because it's up to Congress needs to act.” They're resolving the contradiction by ignoring it. msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-…
Unbelievable that Supreme Court justices who see forgiving student loans, mandating vaccines, and regulating climate change as a slippery slope toward tyranny were not clear-eyed on questions of whether a president could execute citizens or stage a coup without being prosecuted.
I am in shock that a lawyer stood in the U.S Supreme Court and said that a president could assassinate his political opponent and it would be immune as "an official act." I am in despair that several Justices seemed to think this answer made perfect sense.

Crystal Mason has been through enough, for doing nothing more than not understanding a convoluted policy regarding her basic right to vote. DA Sorrells should focus on alleviating our jail crowding crisis, rather than becoming the second Tarrant DA humbled by an appeals court.

Flat out Jim Crow. @TarrantCountyTX isn’t even trying to hide their racism. They are trying to send Crystal back to jail because they need proof of voter fraud to justify their “election integrity task force.” This is not right and will not stand.

THIS IS 100% INSANE!!!!
Waste of taxpayer funds! Tarrant Cnty DA Phil Sorrel is not making the decision on his own & REEKS of Paxton! He’s doing this to “justify” the expense of the “Election Integrity Unit” of Sheriff Waybourn, Tim O’Hare & Sorrel which found only 3 cases of voting twice last election!

For the past 2 days, SCOTUS has been arguing over literal life and death situations. I can't believe that we, as a country, have fallen this far. It is far past time for a moral awakening. Join us as we work to mobilize voters to the polls this Nov. and demand justice for all

In November, I joined other faith leaders at the White House to call for a moral ceasefire.

WHY THE F*CK ARE MY CITY TAXES GOING TO THIS???
At last week’s oral argument in the Trump immunity case, Justice Gorsuch defended the Court’s focus on hypotheticals by saying it’s “writing a rule … for the ages.” Today’s “One First” explains why that’s the *exact* problem with how #SCOTUS appears to be approaching this case:
LIVE: National Press Conference Launching June 29th Mass Assembly and Moral March on Washington x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
539 UT Austin faculty, representing all ranks and 15 of the University’s colleges and schools, signed an open letter expressing a lack of confidence in President @JCHartzell. The letter has also been sent to the leaders of the @Faculty_UT Council.
This new @UTAustin policy seems preposterously (if not unconstitutionally) overbroad. Anyone who is *arrested* for trespassing, but never charged (let alone convicted), is permanently barred from campus? What if the arrest was bogus? What if the arrestee is a student or employee?
New protest rules form today: @UTAustin says those who have previously been arrested for trespassing aren’t allowed on campus. I asked if it matters if charges were dropped, a UT spokesperson said it doesn’t. @statesman
BREAKING: The media cares more about how President Biden walks to Marine One than they do that Trump was threatening to execute people when he was President. I find that ridiculous.
In executing a young dog that she failed at training for bird hunting @GovKristiNoem demonstrates the same lack of empathy that is a hallmark of her political career. theguardian.com/books/2024/apr…

Team Trump in 2021: “Congress should leave Trump's crimes to the courts.” Team Trump in 2024: “Trump's crimes can’t be left to the courts because it's up to Congress needs to act.” They're resolving the contradiction by ignoring it. msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-…
Donald Trump appointed three SCOTUS judges and one of the other judges wife is an insurrectionist. They all are ruling on Trump’s immunity to prosecution. This is fucking ridiculous.
To me the saddest part of the decline of the Supreme Court is that the great Ketanji Brown Jackson was appointed to something so tarnished and broken. She got a lifetime membership to what is now the Federalist Society Rewards club.
Hot take- I don’t think presidents should be allowed to kill their rivals. This is America not Moscow.
Sotomayor: If the president decides that his rival is a corrupt person and he orders the military to assasinate him, is that within his official acts to which he has immunity? "That could well be an official act," Trump lawyer John Sauer says
Unbelievable that Supreme Court justices who see forgiving student loans, mandating vaccines, and regulating climate change as a slippery slope toward tyranny were not clear-eyed on questions of whether a president could execute citizens or stage a coup without being prosecuted.
I am in shock that a lawyer stood in the U.S Supreme Court and said that a president could assassinate his political opponent and it would be immune as "an official act." I am in despair that several Justices seemed to think this answer made perfect sense.
Faculty petition to hold no-confidence vote in UT-Austin president after protest response bit.ly/3Ui5oj6
Crystal Mason has been through enough, for doing nothing more than not understanding a convoluted policy regarding her basic right to vote. DA Sorrells should focus on alleviating our jail crowding crisis, rather than becoming the second Tarrant DA humbled by an appeals court.
The District Attorney’s efforts to retry the Crystal Mason case is an attempt to keep Tarrant County in the national news on the disproven issue of widespread voter fraud. Read my statement below:
✴️Responding to overwhelming concern among UT faculty about increasingly untenable teaching and learning conditions, UT Austin AAUP has begun circulating an open letter intended to gauge support for a vote of no confidence in UT President Jay Hartzell. 1/x
Waste of taxpayer funds! Tarrant Cnty DA Phil Sorrel is not making the decision on his own & REEKS of Paxton! He’s doing this to “justify” the expense of the “Election Integrity Unit” of Sheriff Waybourn, Tim O’Hare & Sorrel which found only 3 cases of voting twice last election!
Breaking news: The Tarrant county district attorney says it is appealing ruling that threw out Crystal Mason's 5 year prison sentence for illegal voting.
US Congressman @GregCasar joins the protest, calls for ceasefire “My message to the university is clear: students and faculty are not the enemy. Students and faculty are the university.”
