Neal Katyal: "In America, the chief justice said only Congress can impose taxes on the American people, and that's what tariffs are. Tariffs are taxes."

You know what? I'm willing to empirically test this as many times as it takes to reach statistical certainty about any conclusions we reach

Loving today's news that the mysterious "fedora man" outside the Louvre heist was actually a 15-year-old museum visitor who dresses like a 1940s French detective all the time, just because. apnews.com/article/louv...

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

Trump: "We took the freedom of speech away because that's been through the courts and the courts said you have freedom of speech, but what has happened is when they burn a flag it agitates and irritates crowds."

Tried to get my real ID. I had my license, my SS card and my birth certificate. I was not allowed to get my real ID because my birth name is different than my married name. Now I have to go dig up a marriage certificate. You know who wouldn’t have to do this? A man. Never change your last name.

@leahlitman.bsky.social said it best: “Political culture imagines that the Supreme Court safeguards the Constitution, when in reality it is chipping away at the constitutional rights of historically marginalized groups."

The Supreme Court is really “just vibes”
In a new book, legal podcaster Leah Litman describes how the GOP and its jurists are "just not that into democracy."

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes
Video obtained by CNN shows the rear landing gear of the jet buckling and the right wing shearing away in a fireball after the plane landed hard on the runway.

After assisted living blew through my mom's life savings (and then much of mine), Medicaid covered her necessary time in memory care. Magas (even those with decent health coverage) who have aging parents do NOT understand what's about to hit them. I feel NOTHING.

Today is National Day of Remembrance for the 120,000 Japanese Americans who were put into internment/concentration camps by an Executive Order. This is a very real part of US history, and I can only hope that we never repeat it again, but it feels, more than before, a real possibility again.
