For context: Jack served as head of the Office of Legal Counsel during the Bush administration. He’s widely regarded—especially in conservative legal circles—as a leading authority on executive power. The fact that he’s expressing this view in such stark terms is significant.
Harvard Law School’s Jack Goldsmith:

“In short, if the Post’s facts are correct, it appears that Special Operations Forces committed murder when the ‘two men were blown apart in the water, as the Post put it.’”

He threw files into a briefcase, ejected the jump drive, and said adieu to his office of 30 years. Resignations would be sent later.

Evelyn hoisted her overflowing knapsack. “Ready for New England?”

A bad thing is unfolding at NIH this week: It looks like the Trump administration is trying to replace key civil servant scientific leaders, the Institute Directors, with political hires. These directors control the NIH budget, tens of billions.

This is a really nice cocktail. An après ski gin sour, it tastes Last Word adjacent with a lovely hint of absinthe

Swiss Kiss

1 ½ ounces gin
½ ounce génépy
¾ ounce lemon juice
½ ounce simple syrup
1 dash Peychaud’s bitters
absinthe, to float
Garnish: mint sprig

This was lovely and floral. I think I may try to simplify it in the future with a grapefruit shrub:

Lychee Please

1.5 oz vodka
0.66 oz lychee liqueur
0.25 oz simple syrup
0.5 oz grapefruit juice
0.75 oz lime juice
2 dashes lavender bitters

6 oz hot chocolate
2 oz Green Chartreuse
Top with whipped cream
