The newest Idaho anti trans bill scares me.
It gives the attorney general SWEEPING powers to investigate allegations, fine up to 100k, provides civil relief with 50k minimum verdict.

Said it before and I'll say it again: A real problem with the legal profession's cultural norm of venerating the Supreme Court is that the legal profession never contemplated that there might someday be a justice as dumb as Brett Kavanaugh on it

Senator Risch voted to keep Epstein’s files secret—ignoring survivors, deepening their pain, and protecting the powerful over justice. The public deserves the truth. His vote is reprehensible, and he must answer for why he's shielding Epstein and his network.

President Trump would rather be talking about his "One Big Beautiful Bill" and other recent wins, but the controversy over the handling of the Jeffrey Epstein documents is proving to be a distraction.
Trump's been on a win streak. The Epstein controversy could distract from it

Since April 4, #SCOTUS has issued 15 rulings on 17 emergency applications filed by Trump (three birthright citizenship apps were consolidated).
It has granted relief to Trump ... in all 15 rulings.
It has written majority opinions in only 3.
Today's order is the 7th with no explanation *at all.*

This is such an incredibly moving, important piece of work. It is something else to read an essay and know, as the words move from your brain to a deeper place within you, that it will be recognized with awards. That is not why Hanif Abdurraqib wrote this, but it is undoubtedly true.
At a comedy show, Mahmoud Khalil told Zohran Mamdani, “I am excited about the possibility of raising my son in a city where you are mayor.” It was a stunning moment, Hanif Abdurraqib writes.
