In related news, the claim ‘the Tooth Fairy does not actually take lost baby teeth from under pillows’ is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that magical beings are secretly thieving teeth in the dead of night…”

CDC backpedals on vaccines and autism, despite earlier assurances from RFK Jr.
The CDC, under the direction of an unqualified health secretary, is now promoting claims that flunk Logic 101.

You can be mad at Jim Comey for what he did to HRC in 2016 and also decry any potential indictment as bullshit. You can do both.

Putin Always Breaks His Word. Why Would This Time Be Different?
A peace agreement with Putin is a contradiction in terms.

I genuinely don’t understand how people don’t understand that Trump is asking for this because he he knows it isn’t deliverable
Why is Trump asking for grand jury testimony?
1. Because he knows it’s unlikely to be released and then he can blame the judge
2. Because that testimony is restricted to charges against Epstein and Maxwell and is unlikely to name clients
3. Because it generates delay and confusion.

Just bought Lawless by @leahlitman.bsky.social and The Shadow Docket by @stevevladeck.bsky.social from @bookshop.org. Two individuals who I turn to for all things SCOTUS while supporting local bookstores. Looking forward to these important reads.

... I can only find one brief (not 3) that Reuveni joined that advanced Bove’s vacuous arguments for skirting Boasberg’s orders. But that corroborates his letter. He tried his best to dutifully advance DOJ’s positions till, in the Abrego case, he could go no further. That’s integrity.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.
I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.
