Pass it on: When you serve on a grand jury, you’re under no obligation to indict who they want and you can conduct full investigations and indict people they don’t want indicted.

You’re reacting to Trump‘s 100% tariff on pharmaceuticals as if government increasing drug prices is new. It’s not. www.nationalaffairs....

Hello fellow internet user, I see you posted a cultural reference I am not familiar with and instead of googling the reference I have chosen to take offense and make it your problem

Suggestion: Stop calling executive branch officials “judges.” www.npr.org/2025/09/23/n...

The Secret Service isn't claiming it foiled any plot targeting the UN General Assembly. Just that a big collection of SIMs (probably used for fraud) could have *potentially* disrupted NYC cell service. The SIMs were in a *35 MILE* radius of the UN. These headlines are all pretty egregiously wrong:

Good morning. Immigration is good. Trade is good. There are nuances but they are narrow enough that free and open movement of people and goods should be the default.

“Every day from today until the end of the year, Washington adds another $19 billion to a debt that already tips the scales at $37 trillion.” @cato.org

The H‑1B visa fee is established by regulation, writes my colleague @davidjbier.bsky.social, and upping it to $100K would require notice and comment rulemaking, not some Trump decree. "What's more, the only basis for the government to issue fees is to recover costs of adjudicating applications."

“If the First Amendment means anything, it means that federal bureaucrats may not punish private companies for giving a forum to politically disfavored speakers…. Carr’s threat was not subtle.” [Jacob Sullum]

This should not be necessary, and should go without saying. But grateful that @mayorofchicago.bsky.social issued direct, unequivocal orders for police to proactively safeguard First Amendment rights—especially when other govt elements are actively threatening them. abcnews.go.com/US/chicago-m...

St. Louis says it should be off the hook in civil rights lawsuits now that the state is overseeing the police. The case may have serious legal implications.

Basel Adra, the Palestinian co-director of the Oscar-winning documentary “No Other Land,” told The Associated Press that Israeli soldiers conducted a raid at his home in the occupied West Bank on Saturday, looking for him and searching his wife’s phone.

#ICYMI | "I hope the Supreme Court will uphold the Constitution...and say look, it’s not a judgment on tariffs...all laws have to resonate with Congress, not the president,” explained U.S. Rand Paul when talking Trump tariffs with me on #InFocusKY.

condemnations of political violence are well taken but it does feel as if some prominent political commentators are of the view that violence isn’t a part of the history of American politics and that is very much not true.

Thanks to Rand Paul for renewing the To Kill A Mockingbird discourse. Also, he’s right on the basic moral bankruptcy of killing people without trial.

To Kill a Mockingbird is a lovely and haunting novel, and that it upsets guys like Cernovich is a sign of its worth, and also Atticus Finch really should've filed a motion for change of venue.

At least 19 have been killed in Nepal; police have been using force against protesters demonstrating against the government and the ban on platforms including Facebook, X and YouTube.

It's not the most important part of the issue but Kavanaugh saying "well they should just sue if they're the victims of excessive force from ICE" when he himself has previously voted to bar lawsuits against federal officers for violations of the 4th Amendment in immigration cases takes chutzpah.

If your advocacy for "abundance" comes with conditions that would decrease the supply of Good Things for People, maybe you should use some other word for what you want. @ryanbourne.bsky.social

I used to listen to @anthonycomegna.bsky.social’s old podcast Liberty Chronicles religiously. I’ve always appreciated how nuanced *and* radical Anthony is. I’m so stoked we were able to get him on Non Serviam. Check it out if you get the chance. 👇 youtu.be/XZmZJCwzLos?...

Broward County police "had a warrant for a different Jennifer... who was 23 years younger; five inches shorter; and had a different hair color, eye color, skin tone, social security number, and home address. 'When I was in jail, nobody would listen to me that they had arrested the wrong person.'"

I regret to inform you that @knappster.bsky.social beat me to the "indict a ham sandwich" / "throw a ham sandwich" turn of phrase. He's otherwise entirely correct here, too. www.wilsontimes.com/columns/gran...

Steve DelBianco of @netchoice.bsky.social has a great op-ed in today's Courier-Journal. He alludes to a *real* problem that many have w/ data centers: possible electricity rate hikes. That isn't a problem with data centers. It's a problem w/ outdated monopolistic energy provision & we *can* fix it.

One of the big selling points of model building codes is that they can lead to uniform rules across the country. But this doesn’t work when almost every state/locality wants to put their own spin on things. This was one cause leading to a preemptive federal building code for manufactured housing.

My wife's reaction: "You should ask him to subscribe to your newsletter."

The first half of this is absolutely true.

A few moments ago, I locked eyes with Giancarlo Esposito at the airport and now I’m just a little afraid for my life.
