Schematic illustration of how extensive sampling allows better estimates of species geographic distributions and the detection of new species. Left: The currently inferred distribution of species based on known records (red, records illustrated using black dots) is substantially expanded to better approximate the true distribution (yellow) when using new eDNA sampling at a global extent. Right: These eDNA samples can also detect new species records (light blue fishes) within ocean grid cells, especially species that are small and rare.

University of Toronto law professor David Dyzenhaus, says that Harvard Law professor Adrien Vermeule “moved away from just being interested in [Carl] Schmitt,” a former Nazi scholar, “to actually embracing all dimensions of Schmitt’s theory: both the political dimension & the legal dimension…” 1/

Trump still has not followed a court order to release SNAP funds for millions of people.

Meanwhile, he hosted a "Great Gatsby" themed party at Mar-a-Lago this weekend.

And he posted seven times about renovating a White House bathroom with marble and gold.

Priorities.

“Did you instruct the DOJ to go after them?”

🤥 TRUMP: “Not in any way, shape or form.”

Bro we all saw the message to Bondi

If you haven’t read my book, you just think you know about the judicial system…

I spent 25 years studying the court system and our laws from inside a prison cell.

Arrogant? Yes.

I spent 18 hours a day reading, briefing and studying—for 25 years.

Try me.

Thank you Doctor.

It’s actually an anthology written over 19 years as I ran into problems in cases I was litigating for prisoners.

I was surprised at how well it flowed, but attribute that to more detailed explanations of legal doctrines briefly discussed in earlier chapters.

SUB ROSA SUB JURY SELECTION

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

A Confederacy of Toddlers The Trump administration is a regime of troubled children.

Trump’s voters have become like the members of the administration, delighting in the crassness and obscenity that pours out of the president and his circle whenever they are challenged. But policies suffer and the public is poorly served.

Like a recent meme said, we weren't meant to see someone be murdered, then turn around a second later and watch a cat video. Technology is pushing us right up to our limits, and then blowing right past them.

We've known for a long time.

Trump tells Christians they won't have to vote after this election It was not clear what the former president meant by his remarks.

July 27, 2024 (Reuters) - Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump told Christians on Friday that if they vote for him this November, "in four years, you don't have to vote again. We'll have it fixed so good, you're not gonna have to vote."

This regime has no intention of giving up power

She Won. They Didn't Just Change the Machines. They Rewired the Election. How Leonard Leo's 2021 sale of an electronics firm enabled tech giants to subvert the 2024 election.

This is what the Dems are up against.

They just bought Dominion. Pretty sure any states that use them will be GOP forever.

I know some might be tired of me repeating this, but it bears mentioning again and again....

Trump is not leaving office.

They are going to go for martial law if it looks likely that the GOP will lose the House.

You just have to listen to them.

US hits $38 trillion in debt, after the fastest accumulation of $1 trillion outside of the pandemic The U.S. government's gross national debt has surpassed $38 trillion during the federal shutdown, marking a record high.

“the U.S.’s gross national debt surpassed $38 trillion Wednesday, a record number … also the fastest accumulation of a trillion dollars in debt outside of the COVID-19 pandemic”

Maybe instead of giving Trump $300M for a ballroom, billionaires can just pay more taxes.

Trump’s Vile New $230 Million Shakedown of DOJ Just Got Even Worse It’s bad enough that Trump wants—and DOJ will likely fork over—this tribute payment. Now, get this: It can probably be done at first without even being revealed publicly.

Good: Jamie Raskin tells me he's formally demanding any/all internal communications between WH and DOJ on Trump's $230 million payoff.

More Dems should talk this way about Trump's criming. He's turning the presidency into a massive Bribe Delivery System.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 80th day out of the last 92.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.
