Also, Seattle is the only team never to make it to the series.

Good. No opening the government until you get it.

My 10YO has started threatening lawsuits against his mother, expecting me to represent him.

This is the same person who defended Charlie Kirk because his views were “nuanced.”

Thanks! I’ll check it out!

Frankly, I’m noodling an article idea about unreasoned decisions (and maybe an attack on the Marks rule) and what they mean for precedent/duty to obey.

And if you can’t get 5 to agree on the justification, I’m gonna go out on a limb and say emergency relief isn’t warranted

Yeah. Because otherwise, the stay in Lisa Cook’s case sure LOOKS like a ruling on the merits.

No one needs a long opinion. But nothing doesn’t help, especially when your colleagues get pissy about people not reading your minds. . But also, if it’s not a merits ruling, perhaps existing precedent should rule the day.

Timeline cleanse!

About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, whereby packages valued under $800 could slide in without import duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages

The AJs still do a good job.

True.

It’s not even “if.” They are pulling the ICE-tracking apps from the store. They have fully caved to this Administration.

Yo dog, I heard you like hallucinated citations, so we put hallucinated citations in your response regarding hallucinated citations so you can show cause while you show cause.

Yes. Sadly, nothing prevents the agency from going back and doing it right. But there is value in making them do it right.

Hard to find a more obvious example of the journalism adage “If someone says it’s raining outside and someone else says it isn’t, your job is not to quote them both, your job is to go outside.”

That’s my point. If they don’t follow their plan, and I seriously doubt they will, it’s an illegal RIF.

Well, someone’s getting fired (or got a RIF notice and said f it.)
