I don't want to say that my old law school is pulling out all the stops to avoid getting exploded by the Arkansas legislature, so I will just say that they are hosting both Arya Shapiro and John Woo this spring in two separate events and leave it at that.

It's a very simple question about what he believes with a very simple answer.
Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.

Really embarrassed by my small talk with security this morning. Not my best stuff. Nothing to do now but own it and do better at lunch.

Love how colon cancer keeps killing people under 50 and yet insurance doesn't cover colonoscopy without cost-sharing until age 45.

I think that at this point you have to just assume that the party in power of the federal government are using the massive resources and surveillance capabilities of the State to monitor political opponents on a molecular level.
CNN: "Another photograph - these are notes AG Bondi brought to the hearing today. This shows a list of Rep. Jayapal's search history. Lawmakers are allowed to go to a DOJ facility to search unredacted files. We learned from this photo that the searches are apparently being tracked & read by the DOJ"

It's hard to describe just how badly Bondi comes off here.
Goldman: "Will the survivors and victims who are here please stand up one more time. By show of hands, how many of you or your loved ones actually have met with the DOJ? None ... How many of you were ignored by the DOJ? All of them." (Bondi responds by smearing Goldman.)

when you repeatedly have to film videos "setting the record straight" it doesn't mean that people like to gossip about you, or even hate you, it means you're a very bad communicator

He knows that he's lying. The TV person knows that he's lying. He knows that everyone watching knows that he's lying. And yet he lies for the audience of a singular dotard whose mental facilities grow dimmer each and every day, he lies for the benefit of a sole wretched and diminished individual.
Burgum: "CO2 was never a pollutant. When we breathe, we emit CO2. Plants need CO2 to survive and grow. They thrive with more CO2. So the whole endangerment thing opens up an opportunity for the revival of clean, beautiful, American coal."
