This is an old story in DC. Far too many members of Congress use votes like this on DC to trumpet their "tough on crime" stance. As a former resident of DC, it makes me furious.
These 20 House Democrats just joined Republicans in voting to fully repeal DC's police reform laws.
Wiping off the books critical laws on use of force, transparency, and preventing violent cops from getting rehired.
They think that they should have more say over DC police than the people of DC.

To recap: My law firm represented Black and Latino voters in striking down Texas' new congressional map.
The dissenting opinion mentions George Soros 17 times and me and my law firm 3 times (all about how connected to Soros I allegedly am). I have never seen anything like it.

In a remarkable and deeply unconventional dissent, U.S. Circuit Judge Jerry E. Smith unleashed a blistering and bizarre attack on his fellow judges after a federal court struck down Texas’ unconstitutional racial gerrymander. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

BREAKING: Chief Judge Boasberg announces, "My intent is to begin" with any hearings related to his contempt proceedings against the Trump administration on "the Monday after Thanksgiving."
NOW: Chief Judge Boasberg is holding a hearing in the Alien Enemies Act, and announces that he does plan on continuing the contempt proceedings.
He believes that will entail having people testify, but is asking the parties for their positions.
“Justice requires me to move promptly on this.”

"He is a man who has power and believes that he is entitled to convert that power into sex. That is such a standard way for men to operate that even other men who do not behave that way treat guys who do as normal and legitimate." Elie Mystal on Larry Summers: www.thenation.com/article/soci...
Why Is Larry Summers Still Employed?
The revelations about the economist’s attempts to pressure a women into a “relationship”—with guidance from Jeffrey Epstein—should finally disqualify him from teaching students.

Wow. I listen to podcasts regularly and I don't listen to any of these. And wouldn't. And it's not just that I'm old and picky. I mean, with movies and TV I might see some of what was nominated. They picked such a narrow slice of what's available.

Several states are trying to compensate for the loss of federal Medicaid funding using money earmarked for other programs, but this approach obviously has its downsides. @kff.org published an excellent article back in March explaining in more detail: www.kff.org/from-drew-al...
Why Most States Will Not Replace Federal Medicaid Cuts
In his latest Beyond the Data column, KFF’s President and CEO Drew Altman discusses how difficult it will be for states to replace lost federal Medicaid funding should Congress make significant cuts.

I, too, have never written roman-a-clef fiction about an affair with one of the worst humans in the world. First, my novels aren't roman-a-clef. Secondly, even the men in my life who were bad choices do not come close to being THAT bad
I just want to go out and say that my fiction isn't a roman-a-clef of my affair with one of the worst human beings in the world. I wouldn't ever sleep with one of the worst human beings in the world. Buy books that aren't roman-a-clefs of having sex with one of the worst human beings in the world.
women are always saying “lord grant me the confidence of a mediocre man.” ok well he did. now what. is the world a better place? look at what you’ve wrought.

OpenAI Tries to Shift Responsibility to Users
OpenAI is trying to shift the blame for bad legal and medical advice from its chatbot away from the company and onto users. We agree that no chatbot should be used for medical or legal advice.

If you want people to believe a different story, you have to tell a different story. And more than tell it. People learn by example. They must be shown the truth that, for example, immigrants are awesome, respecting other races is rewarding, working people generate our wealth, and so on.
