Three weeks in and trends towards a back-loaded hurricane season are materializing. Since September 10:
Named storms = 3 (normal 2)
Hurricanes = 3 (normal 2)
Major hurricanes = 2 (normal 1)
October is busiest for the western Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico. Stay aware.

No one ever said trade was an "unalloyed good." No one ever said the GATT/WTO/PTAs/US policy were about "efficiency at all costs." This is wildly ahistorical & not what happened from 1947-2025. It's not true when GOP officials like Bob Lighthizer say it & it's not true when Sullivan/Tai/Dems say it.

ok so hypothetically — you’re in Nashville for one night (maybe two??), you didn’t make any reservations, you want a late dinner or a cocktail, maybe catch some live music, but still be in bed by midnight — where do you go, what do you do?
The magistrate recommended that Abrego be released from custody.
But Judge Crenshaw will hold another evidentiary hearing on the matter this Wednesday.
I plan to be there for @lawfaremedia.org.
Ahead of the hearing, (1) read @rparloff.bsky.social’s piece and (2) send me your Nashville recs!

During the bail hearing before the magistrate judge, the government called one witness: Special Agent Joseph.
For Lawfare, @rparloff.bsky.social detailed the evidence the government introduced via Joseph’s testimony:

There was a rather charming trend in the 1910s to introduce the actor at the beginning of the film by showing them first in their street or evening clothes and then dissolving into the costume of their characters. Here we see recent stage import William S. Hart become a bandit in THE BARGAIN (1914).
