Feeling frustrated lately? My latest Creative Discourse newsletter: "Those humors are what drive us to amplify our efforts. Frustration is a fuel we must harness to move forward, rather than a bludgeon from which we should retreat." open.substack.com/pub/creativedi…
This is incorrect as a matter of basic Fourth Amendment law. The Fourth Amendment does not ask whether something is called a “warrant.” It asks who issued it and for what purpose. A valid warrant authorizing entry into a home must be issued by a neutral and detached magistrate.…
They have an Administrative warrant. Administrative warrants have been used for decades and recognized by the Supreme Court and lower courts. In every case that DHS uses an Administrative warrant to enter a residence, an illegal alien has already had their full due process…
The Supreme Court has never held that an administrative warrant is sufficient to satisfy the Fourth Amendment and permit entry into a house.
If an illegal alien has a final deportation order from an immigration judge and they refuse to leave, they are a fugitive from justice. In every case we serve an administrative warrant, there is probable cause and the illegal alien has had full due process and a final order of…
Congressional Republicans want to force Americans to cram more corn/soy in our gas tanks so they can bail out farmers hurt by Trump's tariffs (again). You can't make it up.
OPINION by @schausmichael: “The lesser of two evils” used to be a voting method — now it's a campaign strategy for the major parties. As voters drift from partisan loyalties, is this our fabled libertarian moment? Don’t count on it. Read it here: thenevadaindependent.com/article/opinio…
Another appalling and disgraceful effort by DHS to mislead the public and erode rights secured by the Constitution. The Fourth Amendment requires a judicial warrant to enter a home. The purpose is to ensure that a separate branch of government serves as a check. An…

Based upon a very negative reaction from the stock market, I have formed the framework of a future deal in my mind because I need a quick off-ramp.
Things I didn’t have on my bingo card today: Justice Jackson defending the racist Black Codes as precedent for what we should consider constitutional.
“The $200 billion in additional tariff revenue was paid almost exclusively by Americans.” Again, this was an open book test. And a lot of the people that failed it are too dense to even know they’re being taxed more. I cannot.
Remember that most of Trump's current unhinged behaviors were dismissed as "Trump Derangement Syndrome" when people warned about them earlier. And even today's warnings that are mocked as TDS will be tomorrow's "hell yes he did it, I voted for this, cry more lib."
Pope St. John Paul II: “We need to clarify the essential difference between an unhealthy form of nationalism, which teaches contempt for other nations or cultures, and patriotism, which is a proper love of one's country. True patriotism never seeks to advance the well-being of…
As insane as this is, it's also instructive: 1. Placate a bully & you only encourage him to hit you again 2. Trump's trade deals are worthless 3. US emergency/natsec tariffs are a joke & clear example of unbounded exec power (cc SCOTUS) 4. Hey Congress: DO YOUR 🤬 JOB
I'm not sure that "batshit insane" is strong enough to describe this...
Never in my life have I so thoroughly sided with Europe in a disagreement with the United States. They are right and America is in the wrong here. The White House is behaving dishonorably, and the legislators who know it but do nothing are cowards.
Trump said he would steadily increase tariffs on eight European countries until the US is permitted to purchase Greenland. jpost.com/international/…
Imagine arguing with a straight face that Congress seriously intended to give the president the power to impose "emergency" tariffs on imports from US treaty allies so he could forcibly acquire the territory of one of those allies. It's just ridiculous. But here we are.
Utterly dystopian. If I had accused Republicans of wanting this world 5 years ago, I’d have been accused of lying and exaggerating
OPINION by @schausmichael: Should cannabis users be forbidden to own guns? Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford thinks so. Take a trip into a bizarre legal brief filled with gun control talking points and Nixon-era drug war propaganda. Read it here: thenevadaindependent.com/article/opinio…
Amazing to watch the transformation of the Republican Party into the Democratic Party.
You can't claim to care about the First Amendment if you believe this. Treason is a capital offense. Imprisoning or executing people for their words is impossible to reconcile with any understanding of free speech. Incoherent and un-American.
And just 8 hrs after we published this, Trump announced 2 new tariff measures (chips and minerals), effective almost immediately. So, we have to do it all over again. (And US importers have to figure out their liability again.) Heckuva system, folks
With no SCOTUS ruling today, it's a perfect time to check in on the existing - & insanely complex! - US tariff regime. Our updated @CatoInstitute flowchart just went live (&, believe it or not, remains a simplified version of the tariff red tape US companies now navigate). 👀
Does this strike you as quite ... American? Is this who we are, what we do? Everything I was ever taught by conservatives would scream against this.
