It's hard to adequately describe how scary it is to watch mainstream political journalists barely push back against a sitting U.S. president accepting a $400M plane from a foreign government that would literally be designated as an emergency command-and-control center during a nuclear war.

The president has covered the Oval Office in gold, is planning a massive military parade for his birthday, and is now accepting $400,000,000 luxury planes from foreign powers as personal presents. What the fuck are we doing here?

Planes were briefly “flying blind” into Newark Liberty International Airport last week after a communications blackout occurred. Sources said the outage lasted 90 seconds on April 28th and shook up the on-duty controllers so much that some were placed on “trauma leave.”

A man who holds the title of President of the United States, who took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, who then says he doesn’t know if he’d uphold the Constitution, is unfit to be president and should be removed.

My big takeaway from tonight’s DC Bar president candidates Q&A is that Pam Bondi’s brother is exactly who you think he is, and it’s very important that DC lawyers cast our votes for @whatajlp.bsky.social by the 6/4 deadline. Search your email for “Vote Today in the D.C. Bar Election” and do it now.

Even if you accept Stephen Miller’s (textually, historically, and morally indefensible) claim that undocumented immigrants are not entitled to due process, you’d still need due process to ensure that the individuals at issue are, in fact, undocumented. His argument fails even on its own terms.

Scanlon: The Gulf of Mexico was so named over 500 years ago. If we want to update that name to reflect our current culture, maybe we should call it the Sea of Emoluments—you know, the place where we can board the Ship of Fools and navigate from a State of Ignorance to the Confederacy of Dunces…

Pretty sure if the Biden administration had welcomed a social media influencer who'd been banned by Twitter for sharing child sex abuse material -- with his own watermark on it, no less! -- we'd probably be hearing some complaints from the right.

And the jobs of the future somehow bear a striking resemblance to the jobs of the past. They want our children and grandchildren on assembly lines, in mines, and in the fields. Generation after generation. This is the plan to create a world in which we are all piece-workers in service to oligarchs.

1/ The exact language of the oath lawyers take when they become members of the bar varies from state to state, but the intention is the same. It's a solemn oath to uphold the Constitution, and to refuse to act for "lucre and malice." The intent is plain. We are a country of laws, not of men.
