Over the last decade, there were two hypotheses: H1: the political right genuinely cared about threats to speech from the left. H2: they were using campus speech wars to impose their values and silence dissent. Today, the answer is clear, but I can't find any of the H1 people admitting their error.

I’m 26 minutes into Spurs-United, and boy I cannot WAIT to see how Tottenham manage to fuck this up. They’ve got United absolutely in hell so far, which presumably means they’ll be losing by halftime.

You cannot leave prison without a documented place to stay, a job or rehabilitation program lined up, and someone to come and pick you up. There was one woman we met who was there for 2 EXTRA years at the state prison cause she had no living family and simply couldnt get a ride

I know everyone’s jaded and exhausted by the continual parade of madness, but this is the president of US openly inciting racist violence against an entire community of immigrants. (w/ alt text)
The once Great State of Minnesota is being taken over by Somali Immigrants. There is Violence, Murder, and Mayhem all over the State. The people of Minnesota must fight back. You have been robbed, and abandoned by your State Government. Your Governor is an incompetent thief who doesn't want to get involved. He just wants to get out of town with as much as he can steal, and then, lead a quiet life. The Somalians should not be allowed to get away with what they are doing.
They view you as weak and stupid people. Fight back Minnesota, fight back! If you need, the Federal Government will come to your rescue.
Governor Tim Walz, and Mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Frey, must immediately ask for Federal help — and leave the rest to us! President DONALD J. TRUMP

This is as clearly as I've seen this spelled out. If the PCSA smelled off to you but you didn't know quite why, this interview offers very lucid proof that you were correct. defector.com/an-antitrust...
What you're saying is, the antitrust exemptions in the NBA, MLB, NFL, etc. are allowed as a result of the collective bargaining process, whereas the PCSA seeks a similar exemption by circumventing the collective bargaining process. Is that correct?

Generally, yes. When we talk specifically about labor markets, all of the restraints that we see in labor markets of our professional sports leagues—the salary cap, the draft, the limits on player movement, every single one of them—to the extent that they're exempt from antitrust law, are the products of good-faith collective bargaining between the management group and the players group, and exist in a collective bargaining agreement that was reached through good-faith bargaining.

What is being proposed with the Protect College Sports Act is to establish the exact same types of labor restraints, specifically a salary cap, specifically a number of years of eligibility to compete in college sports, and specifically limits on transfers, but not to do so in collective bargaining where there are representatives in the room, on behalf of employer and employee, but rather through a legislative bill, which seems to be negotiated by a number of different constituent groups, none of which is a representative of the players in any meaningful sense, and absolutely none of which have been chosen and selected by the players as a union representative.

It sounds weird, but politicians who violated 'banking laws' were once considered 'disgraced'. No becoming president, no running key House committees, no pardons, if you were caught violating 'banking laws' your career was over and the headlines would call you 'disgraced.' I wonder what changed.

The second paragraph is incoherent but so is the first. Young people saying they are focused on making money rather than starting a family is not an example of them casting aside religious values or secular ethics. His mind is dull and his writing is sloppy in both the original and modern sense.

Will is 100% right. Has happened to multiple clients of mine. One judge (not my case) has said that this isn't really release and ordered the person *actually* released. But it's forcing us habeas attorneys to win our cases twice (or more)
On September 9, 2026, Respondents permitted Pablo F. to exit the building where 
he was detained, but he was immediately swarmed by four ICE officers and handcuffed as 
soon as he stepped outside. (Doc. No. 25-3 at 4:48:45–4:49:26.)3
 The officers drove him
to the back of the Whipple building and returned him to a holding cell. (Doc. No. 21 ¶¶ 8–
9; Doc. No. 25 ¶ 5.) During this encounter, officers dislocated Pablo F.’s shoulder. (Doc. 
No. 21 ¶ 7.)4
 Pablo F. now bringsthis Motion seeking to enforce the Court’s Order granting 
the Petition.Again, Respondents make no attempt whatsoever to support their assertion that 
Pablo F. was released. Absent any such argument, the Court cannot agree that a reasonable 
person would have felt free to leave when exiting the detention facility and immediately 
being stopped by ICE officers. Likewise, absent some argument, the Court necessarily 
concludes that Pablo F. was subject to restraints not shared by the public generally when 
he took one step outside of the detention facility and was immediately stopped by ICE 
officers who forcibly returned him to a detention cell. Because Respondents do not make 
any legal argument that Pablo F. was ever meaningfully released from custody, the Court 
grants the motion and orders Pablo F.’s release.6
6 To be clear, Pablo F. is not arguing, and the Court is not concluding, that an order of 
release in a habeas matter renders unlawful any future arrests. Rather, the Court reaches 
the narrow conclusion that because Respondents advance no legal argument in this case to 
support their assertion that Pablo F. was released from custody, and because the 
uncontested facts show that ICE officers immediately swarmed Pablo F. as soon as he 
stepped out of the building, Pablo F. was not released from custody.
