TIL that ICE tried to detain a colleague’s teenaged son, asked him about his “color,” held a gun on him as he produced ID

the claim is on behalf of twitter investors who sold during the period when he should have disclosed his initial stake. once he made his belated disclosure, the price shot up; those who sold before then sold too cheap

-that he relied on counsel's advice that no disclosure was necessary. If that is his defense, he waives attorney client privilege and plaintiffs get discovery into what the attorney's advice actually was.

explanation: this is a securities class action alleging that musk defrauded twitter investors by delaying disclosure of his nearly 10% stake prior to making his acquisition offer. musk is being evasive about whether he intends to argue -

My mom is part of this group, and this was not a physically easy thing for her to do. I am so proud of her.

Religious leaders here are not mincing words. They have repeatedly used the word "evil."

"Detention and deportation are acts that wound the body of Christ, and deny the dignity of God's people."

This isn’t funny. Judges only speak to the press when they’re in extreme distress

More judges speak to the press (the NYT) about what a disaster the Supreme Court (specifically the shadow docket) has been - “incredibly demoralizing & troubling”; a “judicial crisis”; a “slap in the face to district courts.” www.nytimes.com/2025/10/11/u...

Trump clearly decided that rapid identification of public health threats to the U.S. is something that only Democrats want.

Public health largely began in the military because once upon a time, leaders understood that disease is the greatest threat to militarily readiness. That’s over.

The editors of the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) were apparently fired today.

The precursor to MMWR began in 1878 to address emerging public health threats rapidly.

We are not “great” without it. We are vulnerable to threats from sporadic foodborne illness to bioterrorism.

You could make a very compelling Humane Society commercial using only images of my pampered, well fed dog sitting in crate after a warm bath administered by a large doofus (yours truly).

Big dumb humans are apparently quite mean what with their stupid “no fecal matter in fur” rule.

I think puppy learned a valuable lesson this morning: If you don’t want to take a bath in the sink, you shouldn’t poop the bed.

Love it. Public companies are required by law to adopt and publish a code of conduct. Ergo, codes of conduct are meaningless and investors cannot rely on them as truthful statements of corporate policy.

My boss: so how's our fourth quarter looking?

The Trump DOJ has insisted for months that the third country removal of Abrego Garcia would be handled like any other case. Now an admin official testifies that the White House was directly involved in picking Uganda. I believe this is the first confirmation of White House involvement in AG's case.

Schultz: "We were notified that Uganda was the country."

Q: Who notified you?

A: So I was told from the [White House] Homeland Security Council?

Asked whom, Schultz says: "I spoke to Matt Ochoa."
