HERE WE GO: Chief Judge James Boasberg finds probable cause for contempt of court against the Trump administration. In a masterclass move, he asks the government whether they’ll purge the contempt (by complying) or identify the people in the administration who should be subject to sanctions.

We've reached the point in our descent into fascism where the Jewish governor's house getting firebombed on Passover by a guy trying to bash his head in with a sledgehammer is overshadowed by the story of the President saying he wants to build foreign gulags for US citizens.

I just want to tip my hat to the crack team of White House economists who were able to discover--in just a few short days--that the U.S. is dependent on China for smartphones, computers and semiconductors.

It always boggles my mind that I, a journalist, am expressly forbidden from trading stocks, but members of Congress, with vastly greater knowledge of market-moving news, are allowed to profit by front-running markets, and so may profit by in essence stealing from the public they represent.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

Seriously: arrest him. The governor should have state police arrest him and charge him with election fraud. Then immediately hold a press conference explaining you arrested someone for committing election fraud and will continue to do so. Just fucking arrest him already. You can actually do this

Donald Trump just did an interview where he said he thought that Signal referred to the quality of your cell phone’s reception. Here’s why Joe Biden was too cognitively impaired to continue as president.

All I keep thinking about is how Pete Hegseth raised questions of the competency of a Black four-star general and Air Force fighter pilot who was the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Hegseth asked did he get the job “because of his skin color? Or his skill? We’ll never know, but always doubt.”

Two incredible antiquities from #Pompeii - and they're surprisingly related. On the left, a spectacular cobalt glass cameo amphora with Dionysian scenes. On the right, one of four mosaic columns that supported a pergola in the garden of the Villa of the Mosaic Columns. 🧵🏺 1/ #ancientbluesky 📸 me
