they made this same polite request of Roberts last year and he gave them the finger. he will almost certainly do the same this time. the Dems are at a crossroads with the courts. if they want voters to understand this as an existential crisis for democracy they need to act like it is one.

“To me, putting a humorless lawyer from a union-busting firm in charge of [New York Times] newsroom discipline—which is to say, in charge of the internal spirit of the place—was a recipe for anger and resentment and a climate of fear.” www.vanityfair.com/news/story/n...

The Biden Admin's rule limiting credit card late fees was set to begin tomorrow. But a Trump-appointed judge blocked it at the request of the Chamber of Commerce — costing U.S. families an estimated $27 million a day. MAGA and corporate interests want to keep ripping you off.

The frequently asserted conservative belief that liberals grow up in bubbles and aren't exposed to conservative ideas and so need to be forced to be exposed to conservative ideas is so far removed from reality it's insulting.

Elon likes to micromanage and during the construction of the factory he’d frequently overrule the engineers, electricians and other people in deciding where things go. This included load-bearing pillars and their placement relative to a very large tracked crane/lift.

Target increasingly pushes shoppers to do unpaid labor at their stores, which increases their profit margins by requiring less employees. They don't discount our bills by giving us a labor credit as they should, and now they're going to spy on us while we self-check out. Something stinks here.
