It should matter that they can’t do this, it’s illegal, the vote is meaningless, it takes an act of Congress, etc, but people are so numb to this — and journalists hardly ever bother to point out flagrant illegality anymore — that it may not actually matter.
But it should.

Where are we when we have to caveat optimism and inspiration? Love each other. Please.
It’s ok to be inspired—even, or especially, when shit’s this crazy out there. Let me be clear: I’m not obsessed with optimism, nor do I think it always works out.
But we should be wary of those who tell us to rid ourselves of hope.
The opposite of hope for the enslaved is enslavement, after all.

Why is Kimberly-Clark hoping to acquire the embattled maker of Tylenol?
The recent publicity could allow the company to get a good deal on Kenvue, which makes Tylenol, Band-Aids, and other household products.
