Man, imagine you're minding your own business, getting kind of drunk with your friends at a picturesque brewery in Maine, when suddenly John Roberts walks by and you get to start heckling him. Must have felt incredible. That's the dream. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/01/u...
The chief justice used to preside over a Supreme Court whose members were afforded more privacy and freedom than many other public officials. Once, years ago, Mr. Lipson and the chief justice found themselves up the peninsula from Port Clyde without a car, Mr. Lipson recalled in an interview. So he stuck out his thumb by the side of the road and a pickup truck pulled over. He and the nation’s top jurist hopped in the back and hitchhiked back to town.

Now, Mr. Lipson said, he is cautious about introducing his friend to strangers. This year, on an outing to nearby Monhegan Island, people recognized the chief justice as he walked by a brewery and started to chant: You should be ashamed.

The conditions under which I would be okay with John Roberts ever again having a peaceful night's sleep are so absurdly rare as to be functionally impossible.

Every single example of leftist antisemitism I'm seeing brought up today is someone posting on Twitter, and not to minimize the issue, but I think there's a significant factor in play that also needs addressing.

"I think that we have the ability to do something that the rest of our culture is yearning for, which is make people who are too rich to care about anything resembling the public interest worry that maybe they need to tell us the truth."

Hot take: if you're a moderate D, you should vote for the DSA candidate in your primaries. After all the trading's done, a moderate rep will trade away everything you want and you'll end up with R garbage. A DSA elected will fight for MORE than what you want and maybe win you SOME of what you want.

To Democrats and their eulogies: If you say that democracy is under attack by the Republican Party—and it is—and you say that the Republican Party represents an authoritarian threat—and it does—then civility and comity have already been murdered, and shows of comity are utterly incoherent.

Liberals will tell you that shaming fascists somehow prevents the authentic dialogue that would make them change. Meanwhile, fascists themselves say that one of the things that most discourages them from carrying on as fascists is feeling the utter contempt and revulsion of everyday people.

I see a lot of Spider-Man finger pointing between centrist Dems and leftist Dems about Platner, both blaming the other group. I think the actual lesson here is that white supremacy and misogyny are not neatly confined to one part of the political spectrum and there are shitty people in both groups.
