U.S. measles cases continue to climb, with outbreaks across the country In South Carolina, more than 150 unvaccinated schoolkids are under quarantine after being exposed to measles. Across the U.S., total case counts could be even higher than the official number.

This was just so easily preventable.

Actuarial calculations have a liberal bias.

Can't wait to see the duty of care claims that come out of this.

Putting the grift and corruption aside, how do you underwrite a D&O policy for a 19 year old with no experience being on the board of a multi-billion dollar company?

The industries that are the real winners with GLP-1s are clothing companies and airlines. The clothing is getting expensive.

Shapiro is an asshole who rails against cancel culture, but he's always willing to fire people he doesn't like.

Funny enough Wurman hasn't had anything to say about the First Circuit basically calling his birthright citizenship takes a fucking joke. I guess it's on to a new shitty take in hopes of relevance.

Mamdani has become some sort of Boogeyman for half of America. I'm not sure how much power they think the NYC mayor has or if they know it's a deadened job.

Had it not been for a couple of attention seeking law professors, this would've been such clearly sanctionable arguments. And even they still should be.

The Government1 now asks us to reverse the preliminary 
injunctions in these cases. We see no reason to do so. The 
Government is right that the Framers of the Citizenship Clause 
sought to remove the stain of Dred Scott v. Sandford, 60 U.S. (19 
How.) 393 (1857), which shamefully denied United States 
citizenship to "descendants of Africans who were imported into 
this country, and sold as slaves," even when the descendants were 
born here. Id. at 403. But the Framers chose to accomplish that 
just purpose in broad terms, as both the Supreme Court in United 
States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649 (1898), and Congress in 
passing Β§ 1401(a) have recognized. The Government is therefore 
wrong to argue that the plaintiffs are not likely to succeed in 
showing that the children that the EO covers are citizens of this 
country at birth, just as the Government is wrong to argue that 
various limits on our remedial power independently require us to 
reverse the preliminary injunctions.2

Similarly, there is a meaningful difference between β€œwrong when it argues” and β€œwrong to argue.” I think this paragraph contains a moral judgment, not just a legal one.

This is like when Snowden appeared at a propaganda event to help Putin claim he doesn’t do surveillance on Russians like the US does on Americans.

The Saudis murder and dismember people who say things they don't like. Dave has lost his mind. At least Pete Davidson admitted he was doing the festival for the large paycheck.

This George Carlin interview with Larry King is still incredibly relevant for comedy (replace Andrew Dice Clay with the Rogansphere). Punching down is just mean no matter the target.

Praising Eric Adams is dumb, unnecessary and only serves to condone corruption and lawlessness.
