Big improvement in my wife's home city. The river was completely covered for decades and essentially ran under a main road. This will be a massive improvement.

Correction: for "Trump wanted war", replace with "Bibi told Trump that he wanted a war and, like the fucktard imbecilic puppet he is, Trump agreed".
Netanyahu is in charge. Trump has no fucking clue what day of the week it even it. Don't pretend he has agency here.

The most hilarious part of this is that the recall only affects 173 total vehicles, because that's all Tesla's sold of its rear wheel drive model.

Alabama passed a school placement law. The law, was to defy the 1954 Brown v Board decision and maintain school segregation, allowed Alabama school boards to assign individual students to particular schools. It was upheld by the SCOTUS.

We've reached the point where one party has so obliterated the rule of law that everyone else continuing to abide by it will only hasten the end of our democracy.
That's a recipe for chaos and violence. It's terrifying, and I don't know what we do about it.

Israel is occupying more of Lebanon than Russia is occupying of Ukraine.
Israel is destroying every single building, ethnically cleansing the whole place so they can steal it for themselves.
Not only is Europe silent on this, it is still sending weapons to make it happen.

This is partisanship at its rawest. SCOTUS has clamped down on lower courts for rulings that could alter maps many *months* before an election—even when those maps have been judged illegal.
Here, it's rushing to let the Louisiana GOP change a map *while an election is underway.*

BREAKING: SCOTUS grants the Callais plaintiffs' request to issue the judgment now, meaning the ruling goes into effect and back to the district court immediately.
This was done over a strong dissent from Jackson — prompting Alito (w Thomas & Gorsuch) to author an opinion concurring with the grant.

No. 25A1197 (24-109 and 24-110)
一
PHILLIP CALLAIS, ET AL., APPLICANTS v.
LOUISIANA, ET AL.
ON APPLICATION TO ISSUE THE JUDGMENT FORTHWITH
[May 4, 2026]
To permit the losing party time to file a petition for re-hearing, the Clerk of Court ordinarily waits 32 days after the entry of the Court's judgment to send the opinion and a certified copy of the judgment to the clerk of the lower court.
Sup. Ct. Rule 45.3. This period is subject to adjustment; the default applies "unless the Court or a Justice shortens or extends the time." Ibid. The Callais appellees have asked for the Clerk to issue the judgment forthwith so that "in the event of a judicial remedy," the District Court may "oversee an orderly process." App. 3. Appellant Louisiana does not oppose this application. And while the Robinson appellants oppose it, they have not expressed any intent to ask this Court to reconsider its judgment. Thus, the application to issue the judgment forthwith presented to JUSTICE ALITO and by him referred to the Court is granted.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:36eqtmzysqf7wsslczw4uxcd/bafkreib6qi5rm4isu3umgaxads7cnlwh45xeu7rotc6s6vwmjpmjtp6ij4)
