The only legal scholars I want to hear from in the years to come are the ones seriously thinking about how to fully disempower the Supreme Court. What would that take? THINK OUTSIDE OF THE BOX. Offer practical suggestions that could become political campaigns led by the public.

Two independent studies found that AI chatbots were better at persuading voters than political ads. The most persuasive bots also lied the most. This is something that humans working in psyops have known for decades. AI is psyops at scale. www.technologyreview.com/2025/12/04/1...

I don’t know, I still randomly trip out over the fact that the President told states to specifically gerrymander for him. And they did.

The infamous Ivanpah solar towers were finally going to close. California utility customers would save money, and birds would stop getting fried.

Yesterday, it all came crashing down.

The solar stupidity is blinding. Here's what happened: www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/solar-stup...

What we're learning about ICE detention is happening in prisons too. If you're now seeing why we need to abolish ICE, please open your mind and heart to the need to abolish prisons and create real safety through housing, jobs, and health care, and addressing causes of violence.
Torture is a feature of life in thousands of US jails and prisons. It’s often blamed on “guards,” but someone had to design this contraption, build it, plan its use, and run it up the chain of command. Judges and lawyers had to create a legal regime where this stuff pervades for decades.

The hepatitis B vaccine had been recommended for all newborns since 1991.

From 1990-2019, acute hepatitis B infections reported among children and teens fell 99 percent. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/16/w...
Breaking: After contentious debates and three failed attempts at a vote, a federal vaccine committee decided on Friday to end the decades-long recommendation that all newborns be immunized at birth against hepatitis B.

The U.K. will ban the sale of plastic-based wet wipes from 2026, targeting a major source of sewer blockages and riverine microplastics. The ban forces a full market shift toward biodegradable alternatives that the treatment plants can actually handle. tinyurl.com/2b3srnmh

Yesterday two different clients told me they wanted to take their cases to the Supreme Court because they knew there was still a liberal majority.

Came across this sweet story from a couple months ago while reading about the targeting of Minnesota's Somali community. A very different kind of immigration story, just a guy who loves his dogs and some parents whose kids really want dogs, trying to figure it out. sahanjournal.com/immigration/...
More Minnesota Somali Muslims embrace dog ownership
Somali Muslim traditions consider dogs unclean. But some Minnesota immigrants — especially those with children pleading for pets — are reconsidering that.
