"Dear diary: My heart patters in anticipation of the judges voice, thus delayed from mine ears now by twelve minutes that feels like twelve years. In its stead, there is only the voice of Cisco, taunting me like Poe's Raven. Instead of 'Nevermore,' this bird squawks 'Waiting for your host to join.'"

Last night, the ADL took down its "Glossary of antisemitism" which included an entry for the term "globalist," describing it as a far-right codeword for Jews.

Hours later, the official DHS account authors a post with a common far-right meme, saying that "globalists" will be denied entry to the US.

Smoked cream cheese is a summer cookout staple for us, and you can vary it so many ways. My in laws do a southwest barbecue rub instead of pepper and raspberry preserves and it is stellar. Your whole menu sounds fire!

Remember when Elon left Trump's lap and then tweeted that Trump was definitely in the files? Huh, weird stuff.

I would normally be horrified about someone releasing a video to talk about being indicted but this is pretty disciplined.

TikTok’s US operations are changing hands and will be retraining the algo on US-only data. No word yet on whether a new app is needed.
Meanwhile, @skylight.social β€” the TikTok of the atmosphere β€” is seeing massive growth this week.

Thank you, I couldn't remember the exact language but it's the same out here. LMAO I swear, I see the most contorted-ass government logic in your posts.

I haven't extensively practiced 1A lit, but last time I did I thought the standard was something like whether an average person would have their speech chilled? I didn't think there had to be a showing plaintiff's speech was actually deterred?

I just broke the news that our tech partners tracked over 277,000 devices in and around State Farm Stadium yesterday. They came from all across the country because Charlie pointed us all to Christ, and in his martyrdom given us the courage to do the same.

Proud to announce our unnamed tech partners tracked the cell phone locations of hundreds of thousands of people without their knowledge or consent

It's literally the same language he used in the leaked call between him and RFK Jr. last year, talking about horse-sized shots. His brain is mush.

Certiorari "before judgment" is how #SCOTUS takes up a full appeal *before* the intermediate federal courts have heard it.

It used to be exceedingly rare. For instance, there wasn't a *single* grant of such expedited review b/w August 2004 & February 2019.

This is the *23rd* such grant since then.

The offer made to women in the enticement to become trad wives is the same as the offer made to citizens in the enticement to embrace authoritarianism: give up. Abandon the aspiration to self rule. It’s imprisonment recast as rest and relief.
