Who could possibly have foreseen that war on Iran would (a) make Iran retaliate by closing the strait of Hormuz, which (b) could disrupt world oil markets, enriching Russia and penalizing most everyone else?

Who, indeed, except EVERYONE WHO HAS EVER THOUGHT FOR ONE MINUTE about the situation.

AI Apocalypse Looms. We’re Already Blowing It. Surely there are more options than letting AI run wild or shutting it down, right? Right?

Come to today's Morning Shots for @eggerdc.bsky.social's thoughtful piece on the complex issue of regulating AI.

Stay for my simple advice to Democrats on a message for this election year: End the War. End Mass Deportation. End the Tariffs.

The liberal legal establishment deluded itself that judging was apolitical, America is stuck with the consequences A conversation with The Nation’s Elie Mystal on how legal formalism stopped the left from restraining judicial power

Judging has always been a political profession. But after the Warren Court, the liberal legal establishment deluded itself into thinking that judges were objective gods in black dresses.

All of the things you hate about SCOTUS go back to this horrible error. @elienyc.bsky.social and I discuss:

For tens of millions of people, democratic life has been absent for decades as they endure ... near-total exclusion from meaningful formal political power.”

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics. It’s the root of all evil in Washington.
