Btw we listen to these on 80% speed for the preschooler. Arnold Lobel’s narration of his own books, on the other hand—our other go-to audiobooks—is perfect speed for one so young

This happens every time a party is proclaimed dead, in disarray, etc. Parties don't need to solve their problems to win; they just need a favorable environment.
One of the most annoyingly obvious aspects of the post-2024 cycle was that the “Dems are doomed” narrative would only last until a cycle where the Dems did OK. The party is still a mess, but it was always clear that an electoral rebound would occur.

This is a fine question from CJR to Kayal. Isn't this really a foreign relations power? No matter what, the opinion that issues has to address that, including if it goes in the favor of the challengers. /16

Continuing my thread today. Look, Sauer is a skilled oral advocate and very smart, but I do not think he was very persuasive, in part because he is forced to say/enjoys saying some very stupid things to satisfy his client. On to Neal Katyal. /15

So if the President says the tariffs are to raise revenue, that's different, but if he says they're to regulate trade, that's ok, but in fact he says both at the same time because he is not disciplined and doesn't know why he's doing them. /14
