I assimilated all the way to Congress and this idiot still tells me to go back where I came from.
Tom Emmer: "Minnesotans are so afraid that you're gonna call us a racist, you're gonna call us an Islamophobe. You know what? I'm done being even the least bit careful. Somalis don't assimilate. And if they don't assimilate, then they should go the hell back to where they came from."

He's worse than Roger Taney now.
He's the worst Chief Justice in history, I'd say.

The John Roberts Court has done more to reduce the political power of poor people and Black people while enlarging the voting rights of rich people and corporations than has any court since Roger Taney was Chief Justice in the 1800s.
I opposed his nomination in 2005, and I stand by that.

we said all along that they wanted Gawker dead not because we embarrassed a pro wrestler but because the Epstein story is one Gawker was covering a decade before most other people caught up & was just one of many stories exposing powerful people and their misdeeds
Among the batch of newly released emails from Jeffrey Epstein: Epstein telling Peter Thiel he would “gladly share…expenses for the Gawker suit.”
This was sent the day after @rmac.bsky.social and @mattdrange.bsky.social reported in Forbes that Thiel was behind the lawsuit that would bankrupt Gawker

I just issued an executive order to safeguard vaccine access in Minnesota.
While the Trump Administration attempts to limit Americans’ access to preventative care, Minnesota will continue to be guided by science and the freedom to seek out medical expertise.

Uff-da! That's a lot of brain trauma.
Canadians (and others) take note: Boston University has just released a study finding that every year of participation in hockey increases the chances of contracting CTE by 34%.

Why am I stuck in the dumbest timeline?
Tennessee is banning chemtrails. I hear they will be going after bigfoot next and are working on plans to fund an expedition to the edge of the world.
Tennessee passes 'chemtrail' bill banning airborne chemicals
Critics say it was inspired by unsubstantiated conspiracy theories that planes are spraying poison.

Some news: After its purchase along with Jezebel by Paste magazine, Splinter is back, and I am its new deputy editor. I'll write a bunch about climate and science and the policy and politics involved, among other things.
For today I wrote about the chart that broke my brain a little.

Colorado's Trump ruling cites a decision written by Justice Gorsuch when he was an appeals court judge that prevented a naturalized U.S. citizen who wanted to run for president from appearing on the ballot. Here's that ruling:
