Notes to My Future Self
by Brad Rourke
Shining a light on the things we will want to remember when we wonder what happened.
THE RECORD
EARLIER NOTES
-
Cracked
The South is being redrawn. Watch who disappears from the map.
-
Vote Twice
It seems this is the quiet part being said aloud.
-
Allies Will Pay
The cost of that policy will not be paid only in Berlin.
-
SPLC Targeted
That appears to be the point.
-
VRA Gutted
The Voting Rights Act remains, but in name only.
-
Turned Around
It appears the government continues to try to decide for itself which court orders to follow.
-
Firing Squads
What they are describing is something else.
-
Map War
The map war will determine whether the legislative branch can again function as a branch of government or if it is to be a ceremonial body.
-
Bad Banner
Chavez deRemer’s resignation statement called Donald Trump “the greatest President of my lifetime.”
-
Not Winning
Watch, because those who believe themselves to be cornered can be the most dangerous.
-
Eastman Disbarred
Noteworthy: We increasingly look to the states to uphold the rule of law.
-
Taxing Supremacy
Leadership matters.
