This is also exactly how reform prosecutors are covered. Their wins are treated as strange aberrations, if covered at all. Their defeats are treated as nature healing, and each local defeat is Proof of the (Inevitable … Right? Right?!) Death of Reform Nationwide. It’s exhausting.

The president of the US tries to issue commands to airborne pilots of the Israeli airforce… via social media post. Some day, when historians will attempt to describe our time to future generations, no one will believe them.

According to a commercial I just saw, you can do your own plumbing by taking a picture of pipes and saying “help me Google” into your phone. Did general contractors pay for these ads so they can make more money fixing all the destruction people inflict on their homes?

Congratulations to John Roberts, who will now surely displace Taney as the most scathingly hated Chief Justice in the history books, and to the Roberts Court, which m will go down as the one that probably did the most of any to destroy what is good about this country

"The latest cancellations – including battery, electric vehicle and solar panel factories in West Virginia, New York, Alabama, Arizona and Washington – mean $15.5 billion in new factories and electricity projects have been cancelled since January 1." $15.5B, 12,000 new jobs -- wiped out. For what?

A federal judge, named John Badalamenti, awarded a paper that says … this stuff … an award. That’s John Badalamenti. John Badalamenti lauded a paper that refers to whites as “the People” of the Constitution, as distinct from non-white ppl. John Badalamenti. Or, if you missed it, John Badalame

Important point from Emptywheel: First, four different corners of Trump's base opposed this attack before it launched: true opponents of war, Russian useful idiots, unconstrained antisemites, and what few real libertarians are left. Some have come into line, but others have not. That's an […]

First, it’s important to publicly shame the judge who did this, by name: John L. Badalamenti. And the judge didn’t just say “it was a well-argued paper,” which would be bad enough. He gave it the best-in-class prize. That’s a CHOICE.
