“After filing her lawsuits, Ms. Grossberg drip-fed audio recordings… her time at Fox to other media organizations. The recordings showed, among other things, Mr. Carlson’s immense influence on the Republican Party; an admission by Rudolph W. Giuliani, lawyer to former President Donald J. Trump, that he didn’t have evidence of voter fraud; and discussions between Senator Ted Cruz of Texas and Ms. Bartiromo about his attempts to block President Biden’s election victory.”

What's happening with U.S. pharmacies? In recent months, one of my go-to pharmacies got first bought and then closed, bigger stores look desolate, reminding me of late-stage USSR, I can't find some of the over-the-counter drugs anywhere. Is it just a local thing, or has "free market" finished its divorce from reality everywhere?

Yes, in #303Creative, the majority and the dissent are, in a deep sense, talking about about different cases. They have profoundly different conceptions of the nature of the market, of the public sphere, and the role of a democratic state in governing both. 14/14 #LawFedi

The Supreme Court ruling in favor of a bigot who was never even asked to do the thing she’s freaking out about is just the latest example of how successful the extreme far right has been in enshrining their bigotry into law, and an unmistakable announcement of the importance of reforming the court.

Trains Magazine calls it the first new major rail transit system in the US since 1993! And the first fully autonomous system in the US too!
Some weird early decisions on headways and opening hours, but today's a day to celebrate

what is to stop discrimination based on religion or skin color or gender or handedness or whatever? the Justices would do well to read Washington’s letter to the congregation at Touro:
“For happily the Government of the United States gives to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance, requires only that they who live under its protection should demean themselves as good citizens, in giving it on all occasions their effectual support”
