Denying Bannon oxygen also means, at least after a certain point, no longer fighting about whether and why the New Yorker made the decision to invited and then disinvite him. Maybe we're not at that point but
Put another way, the @NewYorker got a few hours of righteous blowback and was big enough to walk back a very dumb and bad decision and four years in from same, @jack still won't ban Nazis.
Anyway fighting on Twitter about any of this doesn't mean squat next to voting and irl helping others to do same. #my2cents

3/ For people living in extreme remote places—and especially tribes that somewhat retain a nomadic existence—there's no USPS person coming to them or anywhere near them.

So now we have 650+ law professor against Kavanaugh. And the ABA. This list is pretty damming: nytimes.com/interactive/20…
If those teaching law at the highest institutions, some of whom appear before the Supreme Court, think he displayed a disqualifying lack of judicial temperment, how can SCOTUS withstand that kind of black eye?
The only real power SCOTUS has is that that the people's trust invest in it.
