This is priceless. Check out how local news is reporting on Sen Eric Schmidt’s clown-show grilling of Jack Smith. They found Jack Smith at the game… “Top corner, section 109, row 1. In fact, that seat doesn’t even exist in Atlanta.”

What's hard about public policy is weighing the trade offs. For example, something sucks really bad and everyone hates it, but on the other hand several evil trillionaires think it's good. What are you supposed to do in that situation

And the reason people socially construct brute facts is that those constructions allow us to coordinate action. If we don't have units of measure, we can't easily give each other directions. If we don't have labels for symptom clusters like ADHD, we can't easily develop treatments or policies.

“OR” The president can instead choose to tariff up to 100% “the top 5 countries facilitating Russian oil sanctions evasion" over the past year. What are the criteria? What does “facilitating sanctions evasion” mean? IT DOESN’T SAY! Trump gets to define it and choose who he tariffs and how much.

1) It's called the Sanctioning Russia Act, and the press has covered it as a "Russia sanctions" bill. This is misleading - it's mainly a tariff bill - but let's start with the sanctions, specifically with the massive loophole in them. Bill text is here- www.blumenthal.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

Missing the Boat

It is not so much that the boat passed
and you failed to notice it.
It is more like the boat stopped
directly outside your bedroom window,
the captain blowing the signal-horn,
the band playing a rousing march.

The boat shouted, waving bright flags,
its silver hull blinding in the sunlight.

But you had this idea you were going by train.
You kept checking the time-table,
digging for tracks.
And the boat got tired of you,
so tired it pulled up the anchor
and raised the ramp.

The boat bobbed into the distance,
shrinking like a toy—
at which point you probably realized
you had always loved the sea.
