His entire business model hinges on hoovering up public money and then turning around to use some of that money to promote white supremacy which somehow brings in more public money.

I don’t think the GOP idelogues on this SCOTUS actually believe in federalism, that crisis is here

It really does seem like the majority of the justices actively want to support a Republican dictatorship, it’s absolutely bonkers

I remember visiting Switzerland when the exchange rate was so punishing that a trip to Burger King or Starbucks put a huge dent in my tiny daily food budget and just how dispiriting and deflating it is to feel like even fast food is too expensive. Brutal.

The thing about sportswashing is that it's reputation laundering, so you really shouldn't be doing all the fraud you would be doing if you're money laundering. So Abu Dhabi has, uh, not really grasped the project at Man City very well www.espn.com/soccer/story...

I went from freelancing to having a day job and I gotta say, it is AMAZING how much less online I am now, like it takes an hour or more just to figure out what everyone is talking about. Probably healthier for me, but definitely different!

Earlier this evening a federal jury struck down a brazenly unconstitutional traffic stop scheme "that turned mass surveillance of American drivers into a pipeline of pretextual traffic stops and unconstitutional searches." ij.org/press-releas...
The unconstitutional program ran in five steps: First, surveillance cameras across the state and country recorded license plates and logged when and where cars went. Second, analysts and anonymous tipsters flagged ordinary travel, like driving toward the border and back, as suspicious. Third, Bexar County sheriff’s deputies invented a traffic violation to justify pulling over the flagged driver. Fourth, deputies pulled drivers into their front seats, interrogated them and asked consent to search their car. Finally, fifth, if the driver refused to consent to a search, a K-9 alert from a manipulated dog supplied the probable cause to search anyway. This practice happened for four years to countless motorists.

When they get back in power, Democrats need to go all-in on higher education. We need a campaign of reinvestment in public universities across the country that makes the Morrill Land-Grant Act look like nothing by comparison *and* a GI Bill of Rights-style program of tuition grants.

Any analysis of the Iran War that doesn't start and end with the fact that an entire cottage industry of think tankers and lobbyists and their friends in Congress were frothing at the mouth for literal decades for this got exactly what they wanted and it failed immediately and totally is wrong.

So let me get this straight, Sam Altman and all these jackasses are braying about how AI could kill us all and the DC Circuit thought, actually, you know what, the military suffers if the AI is "too constrained" and therefore, banning Anthropic as a supply chain risk is an appropriate response?!

My layman's experience with AI - which is wholly limited to Google search now often returning silly mistakes and Alexa becoming obsequious and less able to turn lights on - is so vastly removed from these DOOMSDAY headlines that it feels surreal. Like being told a broken Pez dispenser will kill you.

I feel what’s lost in the “Ellison asked Musk for money to buy WBD” story is this implicitly suggests Ellison *cannot afford to buy WBD* which you would think in a normal world would be the very first thing that kills a deal to buy WBD

If they deserve to be impeached — and so many of them do — then the House should impeach them. Maybe the Senate won‘t convict but it’s still worth the effort to remind people that laws still exist and that Democrats still defend it. Also, as noted here, make ‘em sweat.
