I didn't learn em dashes from AI. AI learned em dashes from me! It's not just em dashes offering a false "tell." It's all sorts of classic writing techniques like negative parallelism. (See what I did there?) TBH, I'm so old I prefer double hyphens. They just get autocorrected to em dashes.

For those wondering about practical aspects of White House press credentials and press pool, here's a good example from lawsuit filed by CNN, MSNOW and Politico. Of course Constitution allows SOME limits, but NOT if content based like Trump is attempting. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
The Secret Service’s role in issuing hard passes is limited by regulation. In deciding
whether to approve an applicant during a background check, Secret Service officials must “be
guided solely by the principle of whether the applicant presents a potential source of physical
danger to the President and/or the family of the President so serious as to justify his or her exclusion
from White House press privileges.” 31 C.F.R. § 409.1. And the regulation prescribes the process
that must precede any denial: written notice of the factual basis for the proposed denial, an
opportunity for the applicant to respond in writing and to be heard, and a final written decision.
Id. § 409.2. Nothing in the regulation (let alone the First Amendment) permits a pass to be denied,
suspended, or revoked because of the content of a journalist’s reporting.

California Attorney General Rob Bonta posted this on multiple social platforms today, but he doesn't have a personal account on Bluesky so I'm putting it here for a slightly different audience. Quite the gauntlet thrown at Paramount over the attempted Warner Bros. Discovery merger ...
Parody of a Monopoly board with a card saying "Paramount, stop playing games" and a corner square saying "go directly to court!" after a series of places saying words like: leaks, delays, lies, threats.Paramount wants to play games in the court of public opinion, but we’re here to enforce the rules in the court of law.

Instead of engaging in confidential, good-faith negotiations, they chose to roll the dice with the truth through leaks, lies, delays, and threats. Those tactics won’t derail our case.

Until Paramount stops playing games and takes the allegations in our complaint seriously, the board says: GO DIRECTLY TO COURT. 🎲⚖️

Federal judge in Vasquez Perdomo v. Mullin just held US government in contempt for failure to provide immigration stop data. Only problem? The sanction is $500/day. Feds can pay that forever. It's meaningless to them. Their budget is $7 trillion/year, or about $222,000/second. 🫠
The Magistrate Judge’s Order was clear and the Government was given plenty of time to
comply. Nevertheless, the Government did not comply.
Congress has given this Court the power to impose a fine on any party who does not comply
with a clear order of this Court. This Court uses that power now and finds the Government in
contempt. The Government shall pay a fine of five hundred dollars per day until it complies with the
Magistrate Judge’s Order. The Government shall also reimburse the plaintiffs and organizations that
brought this lawsuit for the time and costs spent by their attorneys in getting the Government to
comply with the Magistrate Judge’s Order.
