It’s always a matter of will not resources.

Roudebush provides a constitutional posture that courts should adopt, a recognition that some acts can usurp the power of Congress to judge elections. That will provide a meaningful constraint on the executive ahead of the 2026 election and reduce the risk of intervention in an ongoing election.

Cuyahoga River in Ohio
As Cleveland emerged as a major manufacturing center, the river became heavily affected by industrial pollution, so much so that it caught fire at least 14 times. When it did so on June 22, 1969, news coverage of the event helped to spur the American environmental movement.
I’ve been thinking of rewatching this film. I’ll take this as confirmation.

Mastercard aren’t just expensive — their fees are up over 40% since 2020 — they’re instruments of American power.
13 European countries formed an alliance- EuroPA to build a continent-wide payment system that routes around Visa & Mastercard — & the $24t in annual transactions the 2 American companies currently handle, Doctorow writes in Pluralistic.
