In the presidential immunity case, the court considered a hypothetical of a president ordering Navy Seals to assassinate an American political rival. Trump's lawyer argued unambiguously yes, since it'd be an "official act." The Roberts Court ruled in his favor, 6-3. Why wouldn't Trump believe this?

They're holding up a major escalation in Iran and a crackdown on abortion until after the midterms to limit political damage. To the extent that the last two years have been a right-wing smash-and-grab operation, the next two will be worse.

I finally read Yesteryear. Natalie, in many ways, reminded me of terrible real-life women I’ve written about, like Lori Vallow and Amy Carlson. My review: by a childless “angry woman,” as the main character might call me. leahsottile.substack.com/p/751-on-bad...

HOLY SHIT! The Trump administration paid federal employees $9.5 BILLION for paid administrative leave as part of DOGE's effort to shrink the federal government. Absolute incompetence.

The rule they are overturning was predicted to give $120 billion in public health benefits by 2047, with projections that by 2035, it would would prevent up to 1,200 premature deaths, 870 hospital and emergency room visits, 360K asthma attacks, 48K school absence days and 57K lost workdays each year

I hope Trump keeps naming things America until all 50 states are just called America. All the bodies of water are America. Every hill and ditch is America. Is my name America too? Maybe. Could be. Who knows?

Trump was 4 miles from the Twin Towers in his office on 5th avenue watching it on TV and then the smoke in the distance out of the window as his own lawyer has made clear in interviews previously. There were no fireman who carried him out of his office.

regular reminder that most of the millions of projected deaths from USAID's destruction HAVE NOT HAPPENED YET—which means they can still be prevented. but this is only possible if we demand that democrats prioritize it once in power. it is a moral imperative that we actually act on these numbers

Frederick Douglass, 1857: Those who profess to favor freedom yet deprecate agitation want crops without plowing the ground; they want rain without thunder + lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its waters. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.

To me cutting USAID is like, you put a quarter into a slot every day to keep millions of people alive. You don’t have to do it but it causes you no hardship. Then one day the job falls to people who are overtly white supremacist and they decide to stop doing it. It is most obviously murder

For your convenience, the Pride and Prejudice live-posting super-thread 📚
A drawing of Elizabeth Bennet, a lovely young woman with her long hair tied up nearly under a ribbon and wearing what is most likely a neo-classically inspired dress, looking pensive, two letters in her hand. Meanwhile Darcy, a handsome but stern-looking fellow, looks longingly at her. Also there is me, a little gremlin in big round glasses, skulking about in the background and hoping that they kiss. 

The accompanying text reads “Trung reads Pride and Prejudice for the first time, somehow.”
