worst day of the year. hour stolen from night time given to the smug idiot breakfast eaters. the rise and shine clowns
"Have we seen a rise in positive tests? Yes. Have we seen an overwhelming run on our hospitals because of hospitalizations? No," Mullin said, despite health care and hospital leaders across the state stressing for weeks that intensive care units in Oklahoma are operating at, near or sometimes over capacity and some hospitals are constructing overflow tents.
Markwayne Mullin once prompted me to include the most fact-checking hyperlinks in any single sentence I've ever published
The secretary of Miami-Dade Countyβs GOP started a group chat for conservative students β and within 3 weeks, it was filled with over 400 instances of the N-word, Nazi rhetoric and writings of "dozens of ways of violently killing Black people"

Screen grab of the NYT website at 10:45pm PT. Helene Cooper reporting "A U.S. official said American military strikes on Iran are underway."
The U.S. is now attacking Iran.
Clippy says: Look's like you're trying to start a global thermonuclear war. Would you like me to decide when to launch?
I love how people are like "But Sam said..." and the DoD is straight up saying OpenAI accepted terms Anthropic would not.
To recap:
Anthropic refused to do killbots or mass surveillance. DOD trying to destroy company.
Altman: we are now working with DOD, who totally respect safety and oppose mass surveillance!
Why would anyone trust a word Altman says after this?
The Conference of Catholic Bishops is... not playing around in this brief.

Wow
well Iβm watching this and my husband is helping the four year-old and her crew of stuffed pigs travel through distant galaxies in the Enterprise before bed and itβs very clear who is winning this evening
Seems bad.
Remember when Billy Bush got fired for being the one in the Access Hollywood tape who *didnβt* confess to sexual assault?

JUSTICE GORSUCH, concurring. The President claims that Congress delegated to him an extraordinary power in the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA)βthe power to impose tariffs on practically any products he wants, from any countries he chooses, in any amounts he selects. Applying the major questions doctrine, the principal opinion rejects that argu-ment. I join in full. The Constitution lodges the Nation's lawmaking powers in Congress alone, and the major questions doctrine safeguards that assignment against executive encroachment. Under the doctrine's terms, the President must identify clear statutory authority for the extraordinary delegated power he claims. And, as the principal opinion explains, that is a standard he cannot meet.
Whatever else might be said about Congress's work in IEEPA, it did not clearly surrender to the President the sweeping tariff power he seeks to wield. Not everyone sees it this way. Past critics of the major questions doctrine do not object to its application in this case, and they even join much of today's principal opinion. But, they insist, they can reach the same result by employing only routine tools of statutory interpretation. Post, at 1 (KAGAN, J., joined by SOTOMAYOR and JACKSON, JJ., concurring in part and concurring in judgment). Meanwhile, one colleague who joins the principal opinion in full suggests the major questions doctrine is nothing more than routine statutory interpretation. Post, at 1 (BARRETT, J., concurring). Still others who have joined major questions decisions in the past dissent from today's application of the doctrine. Post, at 1 (KAVANAUGH, J., joined by THOMAS and ALITO, JJ., dissenting). Finally, seeking to sidestep the major questions doctrine altogether, one colleague submits that Congress may hand over to the President most of its powers, including the tariff power, without limit. Post, at 1-2 (THOMAS, J., dissenting). It is an interesting turn of events. Each camp warrants a visit.
Itβs almost like the major-questions doctrine is unprincipled bullshit.
This is truly incredibleβwhen I worked in s criminology program, it was almost impossible for students to get FBI jobs. Like ultra competitive with insane vetting processes.
Between South Korea sending its insurrectionist president to prison for life and the UK arresting Prince Andrew for Epstein files, some real slow-motion-collapse energy for American democracy these daysβ¦
And thatβs two major democracies that have convicted their leaders recently of attempted coups

On this day in 1921, Congress reluctantly accepted a sculpture memorializing womenβs 19th A victory. Congress relegated the memorial to the Capitolβs crypt & painted over the feminist inscription. The statue stayed entombed in the crypt for 76 years. The inscription is still not restored. #WeTheMen
Have you ever once seen the New York Times quote Trump like this?
Hegseth to US military: if you get into MIT, we won't let you attend because of the risk that you will be exposed to ideas hostile to MAGA when you study there.
