This is one of the most maddening thigns about this court: Not just the substantive rulings, but how they think about “irreperable harm.” If the Most Special Boy has to wait a month to do a thing he REALLY wants to, that’s irreperable harm. Actual large-scale human suffering? Meh.

Gone are the mass raids and militarized metro operations. Gone are the pomp and pageantry. But ICE arrests have hit record levels. ICE operations are no longer concentrated in large American cities. Immigration enforcement officials are also working in suburban and rural areas, all across the US.
A map of the United States that shows immigration arrests per 100,000 people since ICE's new enforcement strategy began under DHS secretary Markwayne Mullin.

It gets talked about as gas prices and that obviously boosts it, but the Iran war in and of itself was insanely unpopular from the start, simply as a war, because voters actually do strongly hate the whole idea of yet another dumb stupid costly never-ending bloody quagmire war in the Middle East.

Facebook really doesn't want you to see the new documentary exposing Elon Musk Neither do TikTok or Google or the eX social media site. Since they won't accept paid advertising, let's do some free advertising. Go see Musk in theaters October 9 www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/dig...

Here's a graphic that does a better job of conveying the point than my original post: even by the (insane) standards of the first Trump administration, #SCOTUS is receiving—and granting—a truly unprecedented number of applications for emergency relief from the federal government:
A chart that shows the number of emergency applications filed and granted by the Supreme Court during each presidency dating back to George W. Bush, with the data annualized to show the far-higher frequencies since 2017, but especially during the Trump I and Trump II administrations.

(September 23, 2026 at 10:44am)
Fake opinions to argue over…
- Never turn left on a first date.
- Every kindergarten student should have an unpaid internship.
- The periodic table is too sexual.
- Bigfoot should be allowed to vote.
- Having a dream is the same as reading a book.
- You can wear a crop top to a funeral if the deceased person was hot when they died.

If Mitch McConnell hadn't stopped the momentum behind the move to impeach Trump and bar him from all future offices, the GOP could've licked its wounds, claimed redemption and been ready for a revival in the 2024 election, when conditions would've aligned for an easy win.

Very probably the best photo I've ever taken of a 16th Century dovecote with a cow standing in front of it, surrounded by buttercups, looking like she has just dropped a debut album she is thoroughly proud of.
A cow, standing in front of the dovecote in Bruton, Somerset, about a month ago. Lovely town. Beautiful architecture. Had a chat with a really nice lady from an old farming family after I took this. Sadly quite a few stuck-up down-from-London snotbags live there these days and houses cost a fortune as a result.

It was a completely new experience to write for a comic-book format and start thinking in terms of panels, balloons, insets, and guidance to the artists. Cato's Illustrated Supreme Court Review assigned me Citizens United v. FEC (2010), along with its sequel this term NRSC v. FEC.
Two comic book panels. In the top one, a lawyer addresses four Supreme Court justices including Antonin Scalia, Ruth Ginsberg, and Samuel Alito. Inset box text: "Perhaps the key moment during the argument came when the lawyer for the government conceded that yes, this law could ban a book." Alito, holding book: "What about a book instead of a video? If a book was the functional equivalent of a campaign ad, could it be banned?" Lawyer: "I think it would be constitutional to do that." Scalia, holding Bill of Rights: "I'm a little disoriented here. Our Constitution says that Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of the press." Inset box text: "That answer sent shockwaves through the courtroom. From then on, the momentum was with Team Free Speech." 

Panel two, depicting lawyer Ted Olson ("no relation"). Inset box text: "Lawyers for Citizens United argued that their client would have to guess what content in the film would sound too much like a campaign message..." Olson speech bubble: "The government said even one bad minute in a 90-minute video could make the whole thing illegal. Where does my client edit? Which cuts should he make so he won't have to go to jail?"
