Talarico: "Texans aren’t going to stop smoking weed and eating edibles because politicians in Austin say so. Texans will still use THC — but instead of getting it safely from a local small business, they’ll go back to getting it from the black market. From the drug cartels."

TRUMP’S PERSONAL LAWYER NOW RUNS HIS JUSTICE DEPARTMENT. Todd Blanche helped create a $1.8 billion taxpayer-funded slush fund for Trump allies, shielded Trump’s family from tax audits and led a DOJ that conceded it violated the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Republicans advanced him anyway.

Missouri voters reject Amendment 4. The Republican-backed measure, designed to make it far harder for citizen initiatives (like abortion rights, marijuana, etc.) to pass by requiring majorities in all 8 congressional districts, has failed. Simple statewide majority rule stays.

been thinking all morning about this graf in @micarosenberg.bsky.social and @jeffernsthausen.bsky.social's story
Sometimes the deportation orders issued in immigration court have been coming so fast that lawyers say even they have a hard time explaining them to their clients. Within a span of three hours on a single morning in April in a downtown New York immigration courtroom, Judge Jem Sponzo issued deportation orders fore 25 minors, almost everyone on her docket appearing virtually that morning. Some of the hearings were only a few minutes long, and some of the minors were too young to understand what was happening to them.

People usually complain that my work focuses on the uglier aspects of American history -- segregationists, religious nationalists, etc. -- and my last book was an edited collection targeting these exact myths, a volume that deliberately led off with a critique of American exceptionalism but, uh, OK.
In any other time, this persistent bit of American Exceptionalism might be excusable, even charming. But in a moment in which it seems not only increasingly impossible, but irresponsible, to ignore the deep flaws at the heart of the American project, this is exactly the choice that has been made by a certain brand of liberal public intellectual cum influencer in the Trump era. This cohort includes figures such as Jill Lepore, Ruth Ben-Ghiat, Joanne B. Freeman, and Kevin M. Kruse.
