So in touch with ordinary America.

"Mayor Mamdani has proven in 100 days of bold, principled, people-powered governance that every politician in America who has ever used the word “realistic” as an excuse for timidity, has lied to us. And as Americans, we are done waiting. "

Go get 'em!

We have had many conversations about this possibility in our household. So upsetting it's found to be the case.

I seem to recall some Supreme Court precedent saying you can't cancel contracts with a religious entity because of disagreement with religious principles. Something that like Schmulton v. Schmity of Schmiladelphia.

GOP platform 2026: MORE TEEN PREGNANCIES!

YES. More of this please.

In 2024, Justin Smith, Trump's 8th Circuit nominee, wrote a Breitbart op-ed referencing his efforts to "advance conservative values in Missouri for 30 years." Smith was 39ish at the time, so I am now desperate to know what he was doing when he was...nine years old. www.breitbart.com/politics/202...

Big Law Moneyball

And we pretend there is (and ever was) such a thing as “rule of law” because . . . why?

THIS

I mean, clearly.

I tried to use Gemini, ChatGPT, and Claude to flip a Powerpoint slide laterally - literally just change what was on the left to what was on the right, and vice versa. None could do it for me. Though ChatGPT tried and returned gibberish.

I personally think not safe to remain in any personal relationship with anyone who is using LLMs to analyze your relationship, make conclusions about your motives, or determine how to treat you. I think this is beyond red flag—it should be an immediate dealbreaker.

good day for resignations mr president

BREAKING: Tony Gonzales just announced that he is resigning from his seat in Congress. First time in a long time a GOP abuser has been held accountable. Let's do Trump next.

And there it is *HUNGARIAN OPPOSITION ON TRACK TO WIN SUPERMAJORITY IN ELECTION

Another JD FAIL

Peace through war. Opening through closing. Smarts through idiocy.

I will blockade a waterway in order to open it.

"The dumbest person you know is being told 'you are absolutely right' by an AI right now."

Now just imagine if they did this kind of in depth reporting when Republicans are accused of wrongdoing.

It sure feels like Iran has the upper hand here, doesn't it?

Pope Leo XIV has issued another holy missive against Trump’s war with Iran. trib.al/ww91hCL “God does not bless any conflict,” wrote the official X account. “Anyone who is a disciple of Christ, the Prince of Peace, is never on the side of those who once wielded the sword and today drop bombs.”

the year is 2026. you're a jewish american woman. the world leader you most respect is the catholic pope. everything's fine.

Damn. We gotta get that teen pregnancy rate back up, what are we even doing

Wait, I thought Donald Trump was the most hard working person? SOMEONE IS LYING!

The problem is The problem is…? The PROBLEM is???

the 25th amendment is a ludicrous nonstarter and they're right to say so. the refusal to pursue impeachment because it distracts from "costs and corruption" is such consultant brained loser bullshit. jfc.

Because the 25th Amendment is, in fact, a nonstarter. Literally. Because it starts with JD Vance and a majority of the cabinet. The sycophant crew. That is the definition of "nonstarter."

The Republican party platform right now boils down to this: Yes Kings.

AI is revealing just how many people want shortcuts for their work.

The only good Radiohead song is “Creep.”

Who could have possibly known this?!?

THIS. IS. NOT. A. BAD. THING.

I'm getting way too many emails from people I know that I believe are written by AI.

Melania is bringing up the Epstein files to distract from the Iran War which was started to distract from the Epstein files.

Slight tangent. This is a great example of why, despite my love of history, I am not an originalist. (Disclaimer: I acknowledge that Hamburger isn't an originalist.) As Jamal Greene said, we must be able to dissent from history. We're not bound by what slaveholders in VA did to "Algerians" in 1785.

Which, I guess, is how constitutional law doctrine is in fact made. 5 is more than 4, after all. (As 6 is more than 3, 7 than 2, etc.)

Constitutional law by counting.

Ten years ago today, in April 2016, the Boston Globe printed a satirical front page imagining a future Trump administration. The page was called "alarmist," "hyperbolic," "dystopian." But we’ve put up with so much since then it now looks like . . . a slow Thursday?

Why would a federal judge write this? He probably thinks he's being super intelligent, harkening back to one of the Court's great opinions. But this phrase famously allowed southern states to take their sweet time to desegregate, paving the way for years (decades) of doing nothing. Idiot.

Abortion pills remain unchanged. Relentless attacks against them since Dobbs, and they haven’t been restricted further for even one second. In other words, yet another antiabortion movement FAIL.

This doesn’t mean do nothing! For instance, the people of Georgia and Wisconsin showed us yesterday exactly what we need to be doing - organizing and voting and sending a message that the people don’t want this.

WHAT WE KNOW, 11pm: —Liberals flip seat on Wisconsin supreme court. —Also flip important school board seats in WI, OK, MO. —Dems win Waukesha mayor race. —GOP defends MTG's seat, but Dems way overperform. —Big MO county rejects property tax freeze.

RESULT: The right took over the Francis Howell school board, a large MO district in the St. Louis suburbs, earlier this decade; followed book bans & restrictive policies on LGBTQ students. Tonight, the slate endorsed by the teacher's slate swept, and the last remaining conservative was ousted.

🚨New preprint and our results are rather concerning.. We find the "boiling frog" equivalent of AI use. Using large-scale RCTs, we provide *casual* evidence that AI assistance reduces persistence and hurts independent performance. And these effects emerge after just 10–15 minutes of AI use! 1/

That also happens to be infrastructure week, doesn't it?
