There is something just so perfect about Anthony Kennedy, one of the most morally vain figures in American public life, handing his seat over to Donald J Trump.

Writing a very angry @slate column about the disastrous decisions Justice Kennedy has voted for in the last days; his irresponsible decision to retire; and how this allows Trump to consolidate his power in deeply dangerous ways.

Justice Kennedy was the obstacle to moving further to the right on issues like abortion and affirmative action. But just as important, the fact that his vote wasn’t certain dissuaded conservative interest groups and justices from taking up a host of big issues. That all changes.

Chuck Schumer made a terrible miscalculation in filibustering a qualified, bulletproof nominee like Neil Gorsuch when he was not changing the balance of the court. Now that the swing vote is up, a simple majority will decide the Kennedy seat. Dems have no options.

Wow! Big Trump Hater Congressman Joe Crowley, who many expected was going to take Nancy Pelosi’s place, just LOST his primary election. In other words, he’s out! That is a big one that nobody saw happening. Perhaps he should have been nicer, and more respectful, to his President!

Thank you, @JoeCrowleyNY, for your support and longstanding service to our community.

I look forward to working towards a takeback of the House on a strong platform of economic, social, and racial justice for working class New Yorkers & Americans.

Bill Shine has accepted a senior position in the administration, source confirms to me. But he's not expected to be named communications director — a position he discussed at length with Trump twice before— but will likely become the deputy chief of staff in charge of comms.

If they're looking for sympathy after their #WorldCup exit Germany's players would do well to avoid the internet. Not much to go around, there. Here is some of the best reaction from social media.

I disagree. In what will hopefully prove to be the most thankless task of my life, I dedicate a significant amount of my work to explaining Brexit properly precisely because I want to rescue people from the consequences of their own votes. Blame the liars, not the lied to. https://t.co/UqWG1aMmw8
