The killing of Iranian children during an illegal war is an impeachable offense (not to mention a grave crime) and Congress should really act like it.

15 Republicans in the Senate could end this nightmare before it somehow gets even worse.

This brings back a memory: After my 1L year, I was totally exhausted, and all I wanted to do was get a hundred dollars' worth of comic books and a burrito the size of New Jersey and talk to no one. So I did. It was perfect.

Strongly recommend calling your US senators today to tell them:

1. Publicly call for Sheehy to be expelled from the Senate for assaulting a protestor.

2. DO NOT vote to confirm Mullin for DHS.

Find your senators at reps.fyi

"Does the role really require a woman?"

"No?"

"Or youth?"

"Er... No?"

"Is being royal or nobility a must?"

The dragon hesitated. "It's traditional..."

"We can mention that it's a position traditionally filled by a princess," the HR consultant said, "but we do welcome all applicants."

"Okay."

I heard stories of people who've fed crows, and been given gifts in return. It sounded charming, so I began doing that.

Then, one night, there was a rapping on my bedroom window. I stumbled up and opened.

A crow flew in and spoke: "They're coming for you. You must flee."

I only just made it out.

Want to say FU to Musk and save worldwide skies from two supervillain plans to disfigure them?

SpaceX wants to launch a million sats. Reflect Orbital wants to provide "sunlight on demand" using huge space mirrors.

I'm comfortable with using "decimate" to mean "damage" or "destroy in part," but it makes me twitch to see the phrase "completely decimating." That doesn't mean anything!

(Nothing else she says means anything either, though.)

Americans Have Never Had Less Recourse for the US Government Violating Rights: A Conversation With Steve Vladeck Accountability under both state and federal law faces high hurdles, but Congress could fix that

I sat down with @stevevladeck.bsky.social at @theunpopulist.net to discuss the hurdles to states potentially prosecuting ICE agents for murder and other crimes, and the need to fix Section 1983 so federal agents are subject to civil liability for violating people's rights.

Here's the Law Dork filing you can't access on PACER. All of this refugee case's filings should be online. A magistrate judge denied Law Dork's request for online access to the docket in a significant refugee rights case in Minnesota. Law Dork's lawyers filed their objection on Tuesday.

A magistrate judge denied Law Dork's intervention in the Minnesota refugee case. We objected Wednesday.

I had to post the filing online so you could read it. Otherwise, you'd need to go to the actual courthouse in Minnesota to do so.

It shouldn't be like that for any of the filings in the case.

🧡Feels like shouting into the void, but it is essential to note that the Trump/Rubio gutting of the State Department and blowtorching of US diplomatic capacity and credibility is an accelerant to this spiraling war and will seriously undercut US/allied efforts to pick up the pieces after. 1/
