Also interesting to see free speech framed as the right to speak without fear of being shamed or shunned. You should fear shame for being a bigot.

Everytime I read a new book is coming out about how Roe fell and “NO ONE SAW IT COMING” I think about how @hegemommy.bsky.social and I published a book about how it would get taken down - and then published it again when it got ignored the first time - and crickets. us.macmillan.com/books/978125...

I haven’t said much about the protests because I’ve nothing original to say. (I know, innovative approach.) But as a nervous-to-paranoid American Jew, I’m a lot more worried about the guys in the background than the woman in the foreground.

Reminder: Sure, the student protestors turned out to be right about Vietnam, and gay rights, and apartheid, and the Latin American dirty wars, and the invasion of Iraq -- but *this time* they are cluelessly naive and only protesting to look cool to their friends.

Deeply ironic that we have made Israel into a Sacred Cow, when the Hebrew Bible would define a sacred cow as a False Idol.

I think it's the inverse of that. He did something that pissed off (the worst) Republicans, so he has to get out there and do something really stupid to remind them he's one of them.

Notably, Wednesday's EMTALA arguments will be heard because SCOTUS granted cert before judgment, leapfrogging the 9th Circuit — mentioned here: www.lawdork.com/i/140402357/... — the same step it declined to take in Trump's immunity case back in December, now set to be heard Thursday.

as folks are talking about non-competes i'll say the thing i've said to every person who's ever asked and some who haven't: if you're negotiating with someone that's got lawyers, you need one too. if you're negotiating with a company that's got lawyers, you absolutely need one too.

I thought the IDs were a safety measure themselves. I certainly remember not being able to get anywhere without mine back in '00. Like in the building, then in the elevator, then into even classrooms I think.

I don’t often take much notice of what Dan Crenshaw says, but this acknowledgment—from a fairly far right Republican—that some other Republicans in Congress have been captured by Russian influence seems significant.

I would challenge New York Times employees to name a single progressive strategist who would be favored with a New York Times article simply for posting a few tweets critical of a newsroom executive. There is none. The Times privileges Rufo because it agrees with him.

Trump complained to the judge in his criminal porn star hush money trial that he is not allowed to go to the Supreme Court to hear arguments about his immunity claims that would protect him from the riot he caused at the Capitol while President. The fucked up-edness of this moment boggles the mind.

I think he really means all of it, but I also think that Tom Cotton is ambitious enough to realize that being The Most Bloodthirsty Guy is one of the better remaining lanes to prominence in a party that's otherwise given over to the idolatry of an unstable, declining TV dunce. Not promising!

Fun Fact: Teslas have killed over twice as many people as the exploding Ford Pinto did at a roughly similar level of sales. the Pinto sold ~3 million units & killed at least 27 people. Tesla is now creeping up on 5 million total vehicles & 95 deaths from battery fires or autopilot crashes.
