A unanimous Nevada Supreme Court reinstated criminal charges against six people who were allegedly involved in President Trump’s 2020 fake electors scheme. The case had previously been dismissed on grounds that it had been filed in the wrong county.

The irony here is that academics don’t just write the articles for free—we also referee and edit for them for free. Something is deeply broken.

Political journalism, and the elite tier of journalism generally, got taken over by billionaire courtiers, conservative activists and sex-pest dipshits and those three groups have largely hounded the real reporters out of the profession as a matter of class self-interest.

My childhood, in academic Cambridge in the 1970s, was full of interesting friends of my parents who were refugees from all over the world, escaping various Communist or Fascist countries or political oppression in some other way. That they were welcome here, indeed *encouraged* to settle, was great.

That's a GOP senator not just defying Trump, but trolling him.

Only Donald Trump could assert, in all seriousness, that the most important factor in a superpower's military might is ... branding.
Trump: "We have officially renamed the Dept of Defense back to the original name, Dept of War. And remember we won World War 1, we won World War 2, we won everything in between. We won everything that came before. And then we brilliantly decided to change the name. We became politically correct"
