A draft, leaked press release confirming the President's priors is not evidence, particularly when it is not backed up by methodology or indictments. Remember that Trump has been after US Attorneys to go after election fraud, especially noncitizen voting, hard. Where are the cases if this is real?

I was camping and totally unreachable when all the big SCOTUS opinions came down at the end of June. It was better than wanting to flee to the mountains when opinions come down, which is often my situation.

My camping buddy made a PBS special about two puppets who seek awe & touch grass. Our brains need both! It drops today on PBS Kids, & prime time in some markets. I hope you’ll take 22 mins to enjoy it. Your brain, PBS & the national parks will benefit. 🌲 www.nytimes.com/2026/04/30/a...

I hope that there are several grad students writing about these online betting markets in politics and their potential abuse by insiders. I suspect that we could figure out upper and lower bounds on gains from manipulating betting markets from inside the WH.

Sotomayor: “This whole case is irregular, starting with treating the Truth Social post as notice.” I hope they put in an opinion that a social media post on a proprietary platform cannot ever be considered notice. It’s so dumb to have to say it, but these are dumb times.

i feel like the viral bus thread resonates because at every step of the way you're like "ok surely this will be resolved shortly, any second now," which seems like what all the passengers are also thinking. then the fact that the situation doesn't resolve and the bus just keeps going is an Allegory
