It's a revealing moment...

J.D. Vance welcomes a two-legged robot helping on the job site. But if that helper is a person named Jose, he calls it a threat. Same tasks, same productivity boost.

The inconsistency reveals this isn’t about economics.

William Kennedy, Albany’s Bard, Reads a Story With Legs

Can we just note the chilling irony that Michael Wolff advised Epstein to let Trump “hang himself”?

This headline is journalistic malpractice. This isn't Epstein "alleging" that Trump knew. This is Epstein and Maxwell discussing - in 2011, long before Trump had political salience - how the FACT that Trump knew might play out

Both of them took as a given that this was a fact in a private email

Aurora borealis behind my house tonight.

That used to happen to me every flight. I’d always get parked next to smoking and I dreaded hearing the sound of lighter flints firing up.

True, a fair haul from the City.

Glasgow is nicely small but still international.

there's a moment in PARADISE LOST where Satan arrives in Eden and realizes Hell isn't a place; it's a thing he carries within him and it'll follow him wherever he goes. and i think about that when i see these awful rich men whose monstrous wealth has enriched them not at all

So glad Westlaw protects me from [checks notes] someone surreptitiously sneaking onto my account to do legal research.

Donald Trump’s approval rating has tanked and Republican suffered heavy losses in last week’s elections. There’s never been a better time for Senate Democrats to cave on the ACA extension.

Did it for Hassan. I fear Shaheen, who is retiring, is a lost cause.

Following up on this. This remains a ‘cave is minutes or hours away’ situation. If you want to impact how this plays out you need to contact senators literally now. I want to add additional points of context. What I’m relaying is what I’ve picked up from highly reliable sources.

This isn’t very hard, folks.

Democrats have to stop bailing out Republicans from facing the consequences of their own policies. And yeah, that means they have to stop sparing voters from experiencing what GOP government truly means.

Every time Dems step in, it only emboldens the GOP & they make it even worse the next time.

Even the senators who are retiring and think they won't have to face the wrath of furious Democratic voters should know that their last name is about to become so toxic that not even a goddamn nonprofit is going to want you on the board.

After their resounding victory in Tuesday’s elections, the Democrats had no choice but to surrender.

“We’ll lose our leverage!”

University of Chicago?

Let this sink in. The President of the United States is now appealing a court order forcing him to feed starving children.

Powerhouse judge. The bench and and the bar will miss him.

Assolutamente! Grazie!

Off-gas from the gilding.

Exactly. This shouldn’t be a permission slip for everyone to throw food at government officials. But it’s not right to throw the book at this guy, either.

Nature is healing.
