We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

A headless mannequin standing at the border between shadow and light, mostly shadowed but with its shoulders and bust outlined in light, seems to observe passers by on the sidewalk.

Governor Hochul standing up for rule of law and being salty. I appreciate both.

Yeah you’ve got hochul uploading an official nygov social video calling lander’s arrest, and I’m quoting here, “bullshit.” They think the feds have overreached and are vulnerable.

A few days before graduation, as the federal executive branch and Harvard university engage in a public battle over the fate of the university and in particular its foreign students, a Harvard student poses in the pre-noon sun for a picture in front of Widener library.

The NOTUS reporters said they spent five days (!) going through the 522 citations in the report.
How did you get the idea to look through citations in the first place? Margaret Manto: I got a tip over the weekend that there was some fishy stuff in the MAHA report citations. I started checking that they were real but figured out pretty quickly that I'd have to look at all 522 citations to know for sure. 522 citations! How long did it take, and what did you find? Margaret: Emily and I took about five days to go through all of the citations. Emily Kennard: We didn't have full access to every article, so we were mostly confirming that the bibliographic information was correct. But we pretty quickly found a handful of articles that we couldn't find anywhere through search engines or in the listed journals, so we decided to go through and check each one. It took a few full workdays to pore over a spreadsheet and to reach out to cited researchers.
