Is this the end of TACO trades? www.nytimes.com/2025/05/28/b...

I know, I know, Steven Pinker. Still well worth a read. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/23/o...

ART OF THE FOLD........

An important read. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/28/o...

If you’re attending the White House Correspondents Association dinner tonight, be sure to come prepared with a joke about the toddler cancer patient they just disappeared despite her being a citizen. Otherwise it’s going to be awkward when you’re mugging for photos with Stephen Miller.

I just e-mailed the Supreme Court (which unsurprisingly lacks a phone line for public comment) thanking the Chief Justice for this statement. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/03...

In Missoula, TODAY. Be there!

Surely this (fifty cents *per egg*) all be the thin edge of the wedge. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/04/b...

Today's essential reading. "One person’s courage is sometimes all it takes for many to find their own." Is Somebody Doing Something?! open.substack.com/pub/statusku...

The logic of the coup that is going on now. And how to resist it. snyder.substack.com/p/the-logic-...

"Trump is acting like a king because he is too weak to govern like a president. He is trying to substitute perception for reality. He is hoping that perception then becomes reality. That can only happen if we believe him." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/02/o...

Jesus Christ on a hopped-up sidecar. AFAIK, none of these people have any official role in government, none have sworn an oath to uphold the Constitution & laws of the U.S., and none are authorized to access PII. Trump may be immune, but these people are NOT. Prosecute & sue them.

My mentions are filled with people insisting Senate Democrats are powerless. They’re not. They can throw up roadblocks by denying unanimous consent, forcing quorum calls, using holds and filibusters, etc It’s so easy to figure out even a dimwit like Tuberville managed to pull it off.

Proofs on the left; autograph MS. on the right. For the next few weeks, a welcome distraction from the state of the world.

If you're wondering what to do, and know any federal employees. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/12/o...
