There’s a nonzero chance Trump sacked Bondi because he thinks she jinxed the Dow by bragging to Congress about 50,000

ICE has illegally broken into homes w/ battering rams, pointed guns at children, & needlessly put lives in danger. These weren't accidents by poorly trained officers. A secret memo told ICE to search homes without a warrant. These are blatant Fourth Amendment violations. We're suing. ⬇️

Ever wondered why North is at the top of our maps? If you're assuming there are logical, scientific, Nature-driven reasons for it - yeah, me too. In fact, they're often whimsical, arbitrary or just plain ridiculous! Hold onto your hat. This may turn your world upside-down. 1/

Trump used the Presidential Records Act to defend himself against charges alleging that he stole classified documents. Now his Justice Department—which is currently being run by his former criminal defense lawyer—says the PRA is unconstitutional.

Jacques Tilly, Germany’s best known maker of political carneval floats is on trial today in Moscow (he’s safe in Germany). These are some of his floats of the past years.

“My biggest takeaway,” Nave said in an interview, “is that when AI is wrong, we see that people end up performing worse than if they had no AI at all, and become more confident in their wrong answers.”

Fire the attorney general, immediately start posting war crimes … logical

"Congress cannot ... expropriate the papers of the Chief Executive" *goose meme* WHO PAID FOR THOSE PAPERS, OLC? WHO?

Our video on the rise of Russ Vought is based on scores of interviews, thousands of pages of emails and dozens of hours of videos and recordings of private briefings given by Vought, most of which have not been previously reported. Watch the full documentary here:

Just so you understand, this is as if you prepared for argument in front of a panel that included Cookie Monster, and Cookie Monster asked you a question about cookies, and you had not thought about cookies in advance.

When Judge Lin enjoined Trump/Hegseth's designation of Anthropic as a supply-chain risk, she granted a 7-day stay so govt could appeal. Today is day 7 & govt hasn't appealed. Yes, govt can now seek a new stay from 9th Circuit. But waiting till now suggests govt faces no urgency warranting a stay.

Just another day in America re-litigating settled law from 1898 and ending this day watching humans slingshot the moon.

My latest for @lawfaremedia.org on how Marco Rubio's open instruction to use X for U.S. propaganda and diplomacy is the latest high water mark in government cooptation of private platforms. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-...

Happy2have new attorney general whose entire legal experience can be summed up in three sentences on Wikipedia.

I would like to personally encourage Donald Trump to nominate a non-lawyer as attorney general. Whether or not this is technically possible is a longtime fascination of mine and I think this is our best opportunity to see if it would work

To those still in government, let this serve as a reminder that this administration will have zero loyalty to you, regardless of how many principles you compromise. If the outcome is predetermined anyway, you may as well just uphold your oath of office and be a real public servant.

being unprepared to take a Native American rights question from Gorsuch is sort of like being surprised that the Duolingo owl wants you to practice Spanish

This speech is insane. Our President is a lunatic. Also, he sounds like a moron. A real low IQ individual. Don’t be numb to how crazy this is.

Yeah, that tracks.

RIP Giordano Bruno, you would’ve loved everything about Artemis II

Y'all are right to stay off the Nazi bar, but MY "for you" feed is utterly remarkable right now--the only thing abt Artemis is from well-connected right wingers who got to watch firsthand. Elon is a spiteful bitch.

Raise your hand if you cried watching the launch ✋

I’m a hopeless romantic about space. With all the negative in our world, this represents the best of humanity. Ancestors from time immemorial looked up and wondered - how privileged we are to live in a time when we are starting to explore and learn so much. Godspeed Artemis.

Hoping all fellow MOTs have a joyous Passover meal with family this evening. I will be delaying my family’s Seder until I get back from NYC.

Here is my contribution to today's discourse: Artemis is a badass. And I'm not talking about a space shuttle. 🥰

can’t believe they just deported four people from the PLANET

@mollyroberts.bsky.social and @lorenvoss.bsky.social analyze President Trump's recent executive order that attempts to restrict mail in ballots to understand what it is trying to achieve, the enforcement mechanisms it purports to take, and the legality of it all. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/what...

🚨 T-0:10:00 ‼️ Final countdown started! Go for launch!

I will do basically anything for a go no go poll

Denying a motion to reconsider, Judge Mehta found again that Trump's Ellipse speech could have amounted to incitement unprotected by the 1st Amendment. Cassidy Hutchinson's subsequent testimony—"Take the F-ing mags away"& "they're not here to hurt me"—reinforces his earlier finding.
