Chris Dudley Was Brett Kavanaugh’s College Drinking Buddy
“When he went out Friday nights, I was usually with him,” Dudley says of Kavanaugh. “I never, ever saw him blacked out, never.”

Both of those shootings literally did have body cam footage, which tells you how meaningful this actually is in preventing more murders.
This should have been the case long before they killed two Americans.

It really bums me out that Klobuchar, who was instrumental in normalizing Trump as just another political adversary, is almost certainly going to be the next governor of Minnesota, a state currently paying a severe price for that normalization of fascism.

Republicans appear to be demanding that Democrats shut down all business in the Senate. OK.
Either the filibuster ends (and Democrats can pass an agenda when in power) or it doesn't (and enormous amounts of remaining time during the Republican majority will be wasted).
What's the downside?

A "standing filibuster"—also known as a "talking filibuster"—is the nuclear option Democrats attempted in 2022 to pass the Freedom To Vote Act, falling two votes short due to Sinema/Manchin. Senate Republicans vehemently opposed it and widely promised post-2024 they won't do it.

For 0 dollars most academics will use their trademark depth of policy knowledge and actual experience doing academic research to tell you things that are more true than false
I bring this up - well, for lots of reasons. Ezra Klein’s rates were going around a little while ago. (More than 10 times what I was offered.) He doesn't have to do that. He could say no. The Times pays him plenty. He could just give talks when he feels like it. You don’t have to monetize yourself.
