Favorite player at NBA Top 100 Camp?
Not just the best on his team.
During a timeout — he got the water.
Filled cups, two at a time.
Hustled. Smiled. Served.
Best player and best teammate.
The Trump regime’s Executive Order about “Gold Standard Science” distorts & weaponizes the principles of open science to intimidate scientists and reshape scientific production to support the political goals of Trumpism. Stand Up for Science is asking scientists to sign an open letter pushing back.
“Fifty years from now, you will want to be able to look in the mirror and know that you did what you thought was right, in every part of your life. At the end of the day, your integrity is all you have.” Jay Powell www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/s...
I had a chance to sketch the big picture of what's going on with the insanely complicated budget bill, on Weekend Edition.
(Hint for policymakers: After a ratings downgrade, avoid calling your next tax and spending plan the BBB bill.)

Mom's are the best. Maybe not perfect but they are all part warrior, care-taker and comforter. Give your love to ALL the moms in your life. Happy Mother’s Day!
I am outraged by the unjust arrest of Newark Mayor Ras Baraka earlier this afternoon outside of Delaney Hall in Newark.
I am calling for his immediate release by federal law enforcement.
1/ HHS halts data collection on critical public health issues amid cuts.
Cutting back on data collection is like telling police to fight crime without knowing when/where/how it’s happening.
It’s wasteful, reckless & ineffective.

Honestly I'm glad they picked Harvard to try out this novel "we're mad" legal theory of revoking tax-exempt status, given its infinite resources, deep network of powerful alumni, and law school attended by 142 sitting federal judges.
Good luck! 🫡

Could not agree more. The Prez & VP are shameful, embarrassing Putin puppets & a disgrace to our country. 🤮

As people are trying to understand how courts enforce their orders, this DOJ Org Chart may come in handy. The courts don’t have their own enforcement agency. The US Marshal’s Service is part of DOJ.
ABA It has been three weeks since Inauguration Day. Most Americans recognize that newly elected leaders bring change. That is expected. But most Americans also expect that changes will take place in accordance with the rule of law and in an orderly manner that respects the lives of affected individuals and the work they have been asked to perform. Instead, we see wide-scale affronts to the rule of law itself, such as attacks on constitutionally protected birthright citizenship, the dismantling of USAID and the attempts to criminalize those who support lawful programs to eliminate bias and enhance diversity. We have seen attempts at wholesale dismantling of departments and entities created by Congress without seeking the required congressional approval to change the law. There are efforts to dismiss employees with little regard for the law and protections they merit, and social media announcements that disparage and appear to be motivated by a desire to inflame without any stated factual basis. This is chaotic. It may appeal to a few. But it is wrong. And most Americans recognize it is wrong. It is also contrary to the rule of law. The American Bar Association supports the rule of law. That means holding governments, including our own, accountable under law. We stand for a legal process that is orderly and fair. We have consistently urged the administrations of both parties to adhere to the rule of law. We stand in that familiar place again today. And we do not stand alone. Our courts stand for the rule of law as well.

A grim but essential memory: 80 years ago today Auschwitz was liberated. That there was an Auschwitz to liberate is unspeakably tragic. . .

this choice of photos by the Carter Center is shadier than a Georgia peach tree in summer

"President Carter appointed more women and people of color to the federal judiciary than all previous presidents combined" civilrights.org/blog/preside...
From his commission into the Navy to his inauguration in 1977 to his death at age 100, former President Jimmy Carter showed a life of service and dedication to his country.
Being struck by the complete lack of leaders my generation (age 58), I agreed but then started wondering, why not let the voters decide? Aren’t we saying we are ok with it each time we elect one?
