I slapped SCOTUS and Ouiser Boudreaux🥄😷

I think about this a lot.

This position is fundamentally segregationist—civilization is "erased" by the presence of people who do not share the ethnic background of the present majority—something ironically at odds with the history of Europe, which has been profoundly shaped by migration bsky.app/profile/matt...

TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF U.S., ET AL. V. BARBARA, ET AL. The petition for a writ of certiorari before judgment is granted.

NEW: The Supreme Court will once again consider the legality of Trump's attack on birthright citizenship, this time (likely) on the merits.

It would be all too easy to overlook this case with everything else that's going on, but it's too important to miss, so I wrote a rare midday post. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Today is a dark day for American science and biomedicine. My comments in @nytimes.com

Monsters. They've abolished universal newborn Hep B vaccination, in an 8-3 vote. Since 1991, that dose prevented 6M+ infections, almost 100k deaths, & millions of chronic liver disease/cancer cases.

This is class warfare via crimes against public health.

Republicans: If you live a healthy lifestyle you will never get sick and if you get sick God meant you to get sick lift yourself up by your bootstraps.

Also Republicans: The Dilbert guy has cancer we need to crowd fund and find a cure just for that guy ASAP.

ah but you see sam, if the kids get liver cancer that just means they were meant to get it and Nature is doing its job

A fave.

Oh noes! Get well soon!

THEY ARE NOT SKEPTICS

Yay!

Netflix agrees to buy Warner Bros. and HBO Max If approved by Trump administration regulators, the deal would lead to a new entertainment and technology behemoth.

It's hard to explain to normies how much effort Trump is putting into anti-trans policies.

This is like the 12th thing just this week. And there were 12 things the week before, and 12 things the week before that. There will be 12 things next week.

This is almost everything the government is doing.

Right here, sadly, as I am incandescent with rage but have no real power.

“Centrist” Dems, if you’re listening…

imagine US political culture if Ford hadn't pardoned Nixon, and instead he went to jail

Trump's national security strategy puts great emphasis on "competence and merit" and "civilizational advantage". This administration personifies the opposites.

Good morning! My migraine is gone. Huzzah! Also, I’ve been up for hours and have done about 5 bong hits. Starting the day right, I reckon.

I’m glad you don’t need surgery!

pack the court until it needs remote parking with a bus service
pack the court until it needs auxiliary port-o-loo trailers outside
pack the court until the justices have to hot desk and alternate wfh days and give up trying to learn each other's names
pack it like a Christmas goose

And this is allegedly our next Fed chair

Could you think of a better way of normalizing a crackpot destroying a world-class public health agency than describing is as a "shake up?

See you at the reunion!

It was physically impossible for that boat to reach anywhere close to the United States, even before it was a flaming upside-down wreck, and Tom Cotton knows that. He's not that stupid, he just thinks everyone else is. This kind of dishonesty is inseparable from egotistical arrogance.

I think that makes our cars cousins!

You know it.

Two white Subaru Outback wagons with their hoods up and a black standard poodle who is watching my husband, who is out of frame, jump start one of them.

Yup. We have two Subaru wagons that we love. I’ve actually had 6 of them, this is my husband’s first.

Straight up gonna kill us all.
