In just thirteen days, the villains will have the run of the place, and there’s a non-zero chance that the MAGA Gestapo will bar me from compiling such a list for 2026. But egg prices, amirite?

Why not just publish anyway in defiance? Prosecutors enjoy absolute proprietorial immunity (Imbler v. Pachtman)
Looks like there is only one person interested in suppressing the truth, and it’s not the Jan 6 committee

lese majeste laws but for america
Trump's lawyers -- and likely soon-to-be top DOJ officials -- have a *very* broad view of what presidential immunity entails.
They say the Constitution prevents the government from releasing information that might "would exacerbate stigma and public opprobrium."

It also (severely) distorts the domestic engineering/tech labor market to depress wages.
Elon Musk is wrong.
The main function of the H-1B visa program is not to hire “the best and the brightest,” but rather to replace good-paying American jobs with low-wage indentured servants from abroad.
The cheaper the labor they hire, the more money the billionaires make.

Daily reminder that the underlying purpose of AI is to allow wealth to access skill while removing from the skilled the ability to access wealth.
Anyway, AI has already stolen friends’ work, and is going to put other people out of work.
I do not think a political party that claims to be the party of workers in this country should be using it. Even for just a silly joke.

No, Musk is the voice of megalomaniac billionaires who purchase Republican politicians like cheap and ugly sweaters off the bargain rack.

Cops are petulant children.
This is really damning. NJ State Troopers, unhappy with a report on racial bias incidents, just stopped doing traffic enforcement, and seemingly weren’t on the roads (as evidenced by a vehicle from a fatal hit and run being abandoned for hours before anyone noticed).
For eight months, traffic enforcement citations on New Jersey’s highways plummeted by 81% compared with the year before. The unrivaled reduction is now the subject of a criminal investigation.

a functional, healthy cop culture would seek to punish law-breaking criminal cops MORE harshly, recognizing that with the life-or-death authority granted to police, expectations of ethical conduct also increase. instead we get cops treating other cops as a protected, indulged mafia class
