This is where i say things. I ❤️UVA, Chicago, and 🍺. If you are here with very high hopes, I will try not to disappoint you, but you may be following the wrong Micah.
Every year I watched as Lamar faded at the end of the year… this year I finally spend up on him because it had to be the year. With all the injuries and underwhelming players, he is the one that will really doom my season. I can’t drop him… he’ll force me to waste a roster spot in his replacement

I feel like somebody should be asking if want to see a dead body, or saying call an ambulance, but not for me…
I have actually not seen Mamdani give a formal speech and what I’ll say is that unlike so many of his peers he is not trying to mimic anyone in his delivery. He is simply being himself and it is very effective.
I’ve been interested in political speeches for as long as I can remember. I’ve listened to nearly every inaugural and major address, and I’ve given tons of public speeches myself.
Zohran’s talent in this arena ranks among the best. He’s damn good. Hella good. Remarkably good.
Crazy to watch.

88% (!) of major U.S law firm partners are white and nearly 75% are men. And more than 50% of firms report having *zero* Black partners. These numbers are even worse when you look at equity partners.
This action by the EEOC is nothing short of disgusting.

It seems as if half the people in the MAGA/America First movement express open regret that Hitler didn't win World War II - and the other half don't know that if we'd listened to the America First movement of the day, he would have.

So, they are
- illegally dismantling US govt, disabling Congress
- burning our alliances, turning US into global pariah
- reigniting inflation, exploding the deficit, unraveling US public health system
- putting backdoors into Treasury
This feels more like an attack on the US than a new government.

Second, the ‘threat’ of wokeness was a media fiction. Conservative and centrist publications spent years promoting ‘free speech on campus’ and ‘cancel culture’ as threats equivalent to the right’s assaults on democracy and minority rights.

First, the activist ‘overreach’ mostly consisted of low-stakes, cherry-picked anecdotes. The police were not defunded. Words were not banned. White men were not barred from college.
The backlash is responding to the *possibility* of social change, not actual change.

What we’re seeing is not the pendulum swinging back toward the right after the left went too far. We’re seeing a moral panic, a society-wide assault on a phantom leftist who wants to ban Dr. Seuss and arrest you for using the wrong pronouns and put kitty litter boxes in classrooms.

Here it is in a nutshell:
1. Trump is an authoritarian.
2. With the GOP controlling Congress, courts are key to protecting democracy.
3. So far, courts are doing a good job on #2.
4. GOP will next attack election rules like they did in 2021.
Don't let the cynics convince you not to fight. FIGHT!

I went to my Congressman's local office today. First off, they were surprised that I was there. They said they had been getting phone calls, but I was the first walk-in. That said, the phones were not ringing off the hook. If the DC phone lines are busy, try calling the local office.
