Judge Cobb's strong signal:

"The President wields a powerful tool under Title 10 and the Insurrection Act. ... That expansive Title 10 authority, however, is limited by equally strong restraints."

(President Trump has wrongly claimed "no more court cases" if he were to invoke the Act.)

The writers have done a spectacular job this season revamping their fascinating "Marjorie Taylor Greene" character. The suspense over what she will do next is compelling. A lot of things are going on with MTG, maybe some good, others bad, and we won't know exactly what for two or more seasons.

Jim Ryan's letter is not just surreal and troubling; it provides a series of deeply sobering lessons—about the perils facing public universities today; about what it means to "work with" this Department of Justice; & about what leadership does (and doesn't) entail at this especially fraught moment.
Former UVA president Jim Ryan, who resigned over the summer due to pressure from the Trump Administration, just shared this 12-page letter with the Faculty Senate, detailing his experience with the Board of Visitors and DOJ.

It's a surreal--and troubling--read.

Trump on Zohran Mamdani: "Some of his ideas really are the same ideas that I have."

I just think Trump understands Mamdani is not someone he wants to tangle with. Too smart, too charismatic, too New York, too straightforward, too young. Easier targets elsewhere, like everyone who works for him and most of Congress. (1/2)

Most appropriate and worthy award ever!
Tom Friedman NYT column offers to Trump the “Neville Chamberlain Peace Prize” — awarded by history to the leader of the country that most flagrantly sells out its allies and its values to an aggressive dictator.

I take on average 10,000 stills and a half hour of video every week. Most I'll never think about again. This I'll hold onto until I grow old. 4 hours ago.

Zero edits. No recoloring. No cropping. Nothing. Just straight up reality. 🦑

Trump just killed Stefanik’s entire campaign for governor by fawning over Mamdani and rejecting attacks on him as a “jihadist” or whatever.

I'm really sorry to all the CDC employees pushing for good public health despite all obstacles. Hang on and go down with the ship, hoping to mitigate harm and continue to produce some good content below the radar, or jump ship? It's an impossible choice.
New from me: I talked to CDC staffers about the new vaccines and autism page. They said things like:

“The best way I can put it is it feels like we’re on a hijacked airplane.”

“I think people are starting to see that we can’t fulfill our mission here.”

This red shouldered hawk let me take several close snaps. A lot of birds have of late. I don’t know why. Do they sense my existential despair over our threadbare democracy? Probably not. But I am grateful for every little gift, such as this hawk, that temporarily stops my compulsion to doom scroll.
