Pro tip: call the Project 2025 1-800 number and complain about it to them. The people answering the phones don’t seem to know what the plan even is.

I have some anxiety about how they will adapt the later story involving Elaida (and the Seanchan) but the wonderful adaptation of Egwene's story in S2 gives me hope. I really think the showrunner has extracted and amplified the best parts of the book stories.

THE sentence of the day: A Macronist incumbent in the Marseille region came in 3rd in her seat. She just dropped out to support the left. She said, about why she's maneuvering to block the far-right: "Defeats happen, but you can never recover from dishonor."

There are many things that infuriate me about the pundit class right now, but probably one of the top on my list: Project 2025 has posted their plans for every single federal department on their website. They have a training academy for prospective appointees. Where are the hard hitting op-eds?

In my global inequality class I show this video on Argentine citizens holding ex-dictators accountable for crimes. "Escraches" were a big tactic, involving protests at their homes, embarrassing them in front of their neighbors, & not letting them live normal lives.

Congrats to all the profs at elite law schools who loudly vouched for John Roberts and Neil Gorsuch when they were nominated. Hope you placed your students in some nice clerkships.

The reason the NYT is publishing this piece is because your calls are working. Keep it up! Call Hochul and tell her that the MTA has already lost $2.5 million since yesterday due to her decision to block congestion pricing. It needs to go into effect NOW. ☎️: 518-474-8390

This is the tell for me. Trump’s lawyers claimed total immunity but SCOTUS is rewriting it for them so they can basically just make up official acts to cover Republican Presidents but bind Democratic ones.

Legal pundits over time Dec 1, 2023: SCOTUS will reject Trump's appeal on an expedited basis Dec 22, 2023: They are letting the DC Circuit handle it to not even dignify it. Feb 28, 2024: The are taking the case on appeal but will completely reject the claim. June: SCOTUS says Trump is your God/King

I mean this applies to Republicans too, and they manage message discipline. I think it's more pernicious than that--liberals and moderates from these elite backgrounds just aren't that attached to their principles, seeing them as ornamental.

THANK YOU. I honestly think Biden should have refused to debate him. Being onstage w/a convicted felon, insurrectionist and rapist demeans the office of the presidency & is a security risk. But now that he did debate him, the discourse should just be about how Trump is a terrorist.

No "very smart person" is changing their vote based on this, by definition. Spineless Chicken Littles are going to be the death of the Democrats and possibly the country.

Also foolish. Spin is what matters and it's not hard to spin Biden's performance. He's a mumbly old man who was right on substance, Trump is a convicted felon, an insurrectionist, and a drooling, senile fascist who wants a national abortion ban.

Hardly the first evidence of this but Columbia has gone completely ‘round the bend. They put three deans on suspension because some creep from the Free Beacon looked over their shoulders and saw them writing snarky texts?!? You do not take orders from these people!
