The class actions are going to be glorious.

It was not uncommon to find these in offices on bases on Iraq. True story.

Normal people: "Iranian regime collapse might be a very bad, no good, dangerous thing."
Trump and the GOP: "Let's just push this button and go get a snack."

it's a serious problem for the credibility of the court when a a sitting member is basically an internet troll who will say anything no matter how ludicrous to justify a position he already holds and we have to pretend like there's anything else going on here with him

Our partner hotels are being hit hard, with many housekeeping & food/beverage employees still on what was only supposed to be a temporary layoff in January. One concierge said, “we don’t hear any European languages or Canadian accents in my lobby.”

"GDP increased 2.2% in 2025, compared with an increase of 2.8% in 2024... The price index for gross domestic purchases increased 2.6% in 2025, compared with an increase of 2.4% in 2024."

On day one he didn't fix it. Weird. www.bea.gov/news/2026/gd...

I write separately to explain why the statute at issue here is consistent with the separation of powers as an original matter. The Constitution’s separation of powers forbids Congress from delegating core legislative power to the President. This principle, known as the nondelegation doctrine, is rooted in the Constitution’s Legislative Vesting Clause and Due Process Clause. Art. I, §1; Amdt. 5. Both Clauses forbid Congress from delegating core legislative power, which is the power to make substantive rules setting the conditions for deprivations of life, liberty, or property. Neither Clause prohibits Congress from delegating other kinds of power. Because the Constitution assigns Congress many powers that do not implicate the nondelegation doctrine, Congress may delegate the exercise of many powers to the President. Congress has done so repeatedly since the founding, with this Court’s blessing. The power to impose duties on imports can be delegated.

In dissent, Thomas debuts a new, Trump-friendly theory that the non-delegation doctrine does not apply to former "powers of the Crown," including tariffs, which are ostensibly not "within the core legislative power." This seems brazenly gerrymandered to accommodate Trump's wishes ...

JUSTICE GORSUCH claims not to understand this statement, insisting that I now must be applying the major-questions doctrine, and his own version of it to boot. See ante, at 17 (concurring opinion) (“My concurring colleagues all but endorse it today”); ante, at 2, 7, 18 (similar). Given how strong his apparent desire for converts, see ante, at 2–26, I almost regret to inform him that I am not one. But that is the fact of the matter. I proceed in this case just as I did in West Virginia and Nebraska: I consider a delegation provision’s language, broaden the scope to take in the statutory setting, and apply some common sense about how Congress normally delegates. See West Virginia v. EPA, 597 U. S. 697, 756–766 (2022) (KAGAN, J., dissenting); Biden v. Nebraska, 600 U. S. 477, 534– 542 (2023) (KAGAN, J., dissenting). Contrary to JUSTICE GORSUCH’s suggestion, see ante, at 3–7, that conventional method of interpretation will not always favor (or always disfavor) executive officials, given the variety of delegation schemes Congress adopts. I’ll let JUSTICE GORSUCH relitigate on his own our old debates about other statutes, unrelated to the one before us. What matters here is only that IEEPA’s delegation refutes the Executive’s assertion of authority to levy tariffs, without any help from the major-questions doctrine.

Gorsuch also tries to conscript Kagan to the major questions camp in his concurrence, prompting Kagan to write this very funny footnote saying she is not, in fact, a convert to his cause. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

Hilariously, Gorsuch and Barrett have a side-battle over the major questions doctrine, with Gorsuch writing a 46-page solo concurrence saying it's a substantive canon and Barrett saying it's a mere tool of statutory interpretation. So these two can't even agree on what the "doctrine" actually means.

Thomas, Kavanaugh, Alito dissent.

Roberts writes the lead opinion. With Gorsuch and Barrett, he invokes the "major questions doctrine" to strike down the tariffs.

The three liberals say the major questions doctrine isn't needed to find the tariffs unlawful. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

This picture is so crazy that if you had this as a scene in a made-for-TV dystopian scifi movie in like 2014 people would switch channels because you’d ruined the suspension of disbelief.

Remember the moral panic about safetyism? Trigger warnings? Snowflakes? Well, its actually happening in Texas.

It really is amazing. There's gotta be a section in every major intelligence agency now devoted to figuring out where the smart money is.

Hackers made death threats against this security researcher. Big mistake. Allison Nixon had helped arrest dozens of members of The Com — a loose affiliation of online groups responsible for violence and hacking campaigns. Then she became a target.

This came across my feed a few minutes ago. The Com was the crime gang the kid was affiliated with. www.technologyreview.com/2026/02/16/1...

Oh fuck off.

The improvement of the top figure skaters over those from 40 years ago is even steeper than the improvement of gymnasts.

As one Yemeni friend in Aden put it recently:

“We’ve gone from being 50% occupied (by the UAE) to 100% occupied (by Saudi Arabia). Occupied always.”

- the latter being a reference to previously being “occupied” by the north since 1994.

Rep Melanie Stansbury (D) New Mexico on Twitter today posting "This is not legal with a blue arrow pointing down emoji as a quote reply to a blue check Aaron Blake saying Trump announces he's transferring $10 billion from the US government to his "Board of Peace," which critics have likened to a giant slush fund Trump will control then a CNN link

I wish when I did crimes that the only consequence was that people like the entire Democratic establishment would post "that's not legal" with a sad face emoji while quoting news stories about me doing all those crimes I just keep doing

Masnick: "This is what so many of us kept pointing out throughout the 'Twitter Files' hysteria: the 'free speech' grift was never about protecting individuals from the state. It was about protecting a specific type of speaker from the social consequences of their speech."

I hope they play absolute hardball with him, convict him, and then get him to rat all his mates out with the lure of extra commissary privileges or extra time in the yard.
