this entire crusade against diversity in hiring and admissions is based on the supposition that all white men are necessarily more qualified than any nonwhite person or woman who might be considered for the job. like, this lawsuit more or less states that outright.

Speaking as a semanticist, it's wild to me that they are phrasing it in terms of whether an *act* is characterized as "official", when what they seem to actually be talking about is whether there exists a *description* of the act that can be characterized as "official".

Under todayâs immunity decision, Biden could order AG Garland to immediately prosecute Thomas and Alito for corruption and insurrection. (Official act). If Garland refuses, Biden can fire him and replace him with someone who will. (Official act) I would suggest Elie Mystal.

She did well in putting this current team together. Best depth in the league, with lots of 3-point shooters and incredible defenders. That's how you win in the WNBA.

Dear Reporters,
If youâre interviewing a theocrat who says âall our laws are based on the Ten Commandmentsâ and you donât immediately ask them to provide evidence and examples for that laughably stupid claim, just go ahead and quit your job.

Here's my counter: 90% of mass killers are documented supporters of DJT and right wing ideology. Trump's rhetoric incites violence, including the Jan. 6 riots and attempts to kill his own vice president. Go ahead, Don, deny that you have called for violence against your opponents. We have receipts.

This lawyer keeps insisting the Ten Commandments were a very, very important part of the founding but offers zero proof (because there is none) He finally says, well, Moses is on the SCOTUS building -- built in the 1930s! -- and yes, he's there, but so are Muhammed, Confucious, Hammurabi ....

Impossible not to hold your manager to higher expectations with this much talent. It doesn't matter if the players like him or not. Berhalter is responsible for making the talent succeed. Lots of managers in other countries are having more success with less talent in tougher regions around the world

I'm still reeling from that Trump speech. Clips of incoherence are one thing, but to listen for 30 mins...at one point he went into a long riff about some new Daily Mail poll showing him ahead. Then, five minutes later, he did the entire thing again, clearly with no memory that he'd said it already.

Strib - to their credit - drops another bombshell on how the city lied to the public and the media about using âcoachingâ to discipline police officers. Not sure how you can write a whole investigative story and not mention âFreyâ - the boss - once, though. strib.gift/s6h5qin0z (No paywall.)

Once you give into fear, it eliminates all rationality. Even self preservation is confused with violent aggression. We are a species capable of great creativity and understanding, but so many of us choose the horrible reality of being a species hell-bent to destroy itself.
