A tale told by an attorney, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. Former fed. Mostly law, econ, and politics. This is not a place of honor

I think we as a society need to bring cast off morally grey villains and bring back ontological evil

Anyone currently involved in federal immigration enforcement, every officer, every bureaucrat, every lawyer, every judge, is a member of the most evil group of people this country has seen since Reconstruction. Darkness personified, every one. Doing this to children is beyond depraved.

This post is perfect. Itโ€™s like the โ€œtears in the rainโ€ speech from Bladerunner

again, not great, but I will emphasize to people that most states have incredibly simple opt out procedures for vaccines. They literally hand you a one page form and you sign it and you're done.

The ship sailed here awhile ago.

Yah I only poked you because I couldnโ€™t figure it out myself. Odd.

The story here is tragic.

But its use of the second person is really troubling here too.

*I* did not risk my kids either getting or spreading measles bc *I* trusted science and vaccinated them.

The use of โ€œyouโ€ absolves the author of responsibilityโ€”this is just something we all did.

It is not.

The perversion of the FTC and total destruction and corruption of the DOJ is just really grim for antitrust enforcers for the next three years. Private enforcement and state AGs going to be critical

On the one hand, this is bad. On the other hand, also bad, but at least itโ€™s not menacing Denmark and Canada anymore.

The โ€œWhere are the protests?โ€ lament after Trumpโ€™s inauguration was always based on a (willful) misperception โ€“ a myth propagated by a punditry vying for relevance, hellbent on presenting grandiose reckonings and sweeping narratives rather than careful empirical assessments.

I do really wish more reporters would just ask "Speaker Johnson, do you think itโ€™s appropriate for the Speaker of the Houseโ€”third in line of succession to the presidencyโ€”to be so consistently unfamiliar with current events?"

In a deposition thatโ€™s the part where you ask to take a break and go stare at the wall for 5 minutes

Also probably needs a department in charge of sending funds to the schools for that. Maybe one in charge of schools generally, like a department of teaching good.

Protectionists always love to talk about what they're doing in terms of how it enriches Americans but in fact it does not, it makes us poorer, and forces us into substitutes we don't like and in fact prefer the variety and abundance

Iโ€™m still waiting for anyone to explain the use case for crypto that doesnโ€™t involve crime.
