Donald Trump is profoundly arrogant, ignorant, insipid and insidiously ridiculous.

But the Colorado Supreme Court case shows what I've said for months:
It's way too soon to say he's the Republican nominee.

I still don't believe he'll even be on the ballot next November.

On the question of whether requires four votes or five votes to grant a petition for certiorari 'before judgment,' here's a 1985 memorandum from then-Justice Rehnquist suggesting that the Court had agreed in 1983 that the answer was *five*:

I percent of Gazans have been killed in this war. That’s the equivalent of 3.3 million Americans. (A total of 1. 3 million Americans have been killed in all the wars we’ve fought.)

Just in: Judge Howell order Rudy Giuliani to pay Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss the $148 million he owes them immediately, noting his history as an 'uncooperative litigant,' his mounting debts and concerns that he will 'conceal his assets' if there's a delay.

Billie Eilish can't run for president. She is under 35.

Arnold Schwarzenegger can't run for president. He was born in Austria.

Donald Trump can't run for president. He engaged in and supported an insurrection.

It's in the Constitution, folks.

We are concerned by the Hungarian government’s enactment of a new 'Sovereign Defense Authority' that could be used to punish those with views not shared by the ruling party. This law is inconsistent with democratic values and respect for human rights. state.gov/concern-with-h…

NOW: Jack Smith's filing rebutting Trump's bid to see a sealed, ex parte brief on classified discovery has an interesting nugget on the highly sensitive nature of the docs in the case.
They're apparently so secret that TS/SCI clearance isn't enough. Added read-ins are needed.

So, sitting here, considering what to worry about for the next few hours (I try to mix it up over the course of each day), I keep coming back to my long-standing sense Trump is not the GOP candidate. So then it's Nikki Haley v. Biden. Yes, I'm gonna worry about that for a while.

She’s gaining: new Saint Anselm Poll shows Nikki Haley closing the gap on former president Donald Trump in New Hampshire. She’s doubled her support since the last poll while Trump is holding steady.

Important decision & right on the merits. The 14th Amendment was adopted to protect our democracy against insurrectionists. There's no more justification for ignoring it here than there would be to ignore the First Amendment.

Credit to Citizens for Ethics who brought the case.
