Have a little self respect
if you believed this you should be fired on the spot because you are one of the dumbest people alive
It's genuinely incredible how "listens to what Trump says and interprets it as a policy goal" puts you in the top 5% of Trump understanders
We have the data. My longest columns have more readers, who read longer, and who share them the most.
Think about how much worse Trump’s job numbers would be if the administration itself wasn’t a jobs program for people who would be unemployable in literally any other context
I planned to share my report on the body cam footage early next week when I learned that a DC news station had obtained some of the footage as a result of my lawsuit and they were going to scoop me. After working on this for a year, I couldn't let that happen. Published 2 mins before they aired :)
Bold words about “culture” for someone from Charlotte
Hiring the dregs of Liberty Law School for the DOJ is the legal equivalent of drafting 13-year-olds into the infantry
It's kind of wild how driving the speed limit feels like an act of resistance against car culture
They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).
This is an unjust, illegal war. It violates our treaties and our laws. Presidential impunity must end.
Genuinely pathetic
An NPR investigation finds the public database of Epstein files is missing dozens of pages related to sexual abuse accusations against President Trump. n.pr/4qTItsU
What a genuinely tragic way to live
Incredible opinion. It holds that the common ICE tactic of jumping out of an unidentified rental vehicle and seizing suspected noncitizens while masked violates the Fourth Amendment because the *manner* of the seizure is incompatible with a free society governed by the rule of law.
we couldn't use government funds to buy coffee (like, folgers ground coffee) when i worked on a CDC outbreak emergency response
gotta do investigations into DHS “waste, fraud and abuse” as pretext for killing the agency
Embarrassed that UNC didn’t make this list and Duke did
"[The previous owner] said a non-disclosure agreement prevents him from disclosing the purchase price, when it was sold, and to which federal agency it was sold."
Why does a government agency get to keep this info from the public?

My paper, Patronage Pardons, is forthcoming in the Duke Law Journal.
This has appeared in popular press, but here is the full dress version. What distinguishes Trumpist clemency corruption is its communicative function - it powers a loyalty for protection racket.

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous
What’s this I’m hearing about an maleficent rabbit
OK "god bless america" and then naming every country in the americas from south to north is absolute king shit
every year i make a 'super bowl advertisement' bingo card for my friends. in these trying times,,, here's this year's:
NO. 68-71
What’s happening to WaPo seems to call for revising my thesis below to extend also to any kind of meaningful institution of civil society
If you defend ICE’s conduct on the basis that law-breaking justifies whatever consequences the state imposes, I’d love to hear whether you agree that speeding by any amount—which by any measure causes more harm than being undocumented—should be punished at least as severely
Turns out when the metaphorical barrel of a gun is pressed against your forehead, a lot of luxury beliefs like being an alt-health quack sudden vanish from your mind.
