Trying to figure out what #SCOTUS just did with #SNAP, and why Justice Jackson temporarily froze the district court's ruling? Via "One First," me on what's going on—and why I think Jackson's move was savvy, notwithstanding the awful circumstances that forced it: www.stevevladeck.com/p/190-snap-wtf

Humanitarian and foreign-affairs professionals agree that what is happening in Darfur now is on a scale unlike anything seen in the conflict so far. Why is so little being done? https://www.newyorker.com/news/the-lede/the-fall-of-el-fasher

They weren't terrorists. They weren't cartel members. They had no fentanyl. And they weren't coming here. They were transporting cocaine. To Trinidad. Most importantly, they were human beings. And they were murdered. By the government of the United States of America.

Karp is pathetic and cowardly and deserves every bit of opprobrium the rest of the bar can bestow upon him.

Politics came for healthcare and the only way to fight back is by getting political. So proud to be one of many doctors running for office this cycle and so grateful for @314action.bsky.social and their support. 🇺🇸

“A Nigerian official was told by a U.S. counterpart that, with Thanksgiving coming up, Nigeria should go quiet and wait for the president’s attention to shift, a Nigerian official said.” Ladies and Gentlemen, the commander in chief of the U.S. military.

it's true and they should say it but it's a real bad sign it's winding up in print

One of the few positive aspects of this era in American history is that it's super-easy to identify the villains.

Mamdani is going to implement Shania law. That don't impress me much.

Mamdani is going to implement Shakira law. Hips will no longer be able to lie.

Mamdani is going to implement My Sharona law. Everyone will have to create songs with undeniable rock beats.
