Succinct. Time for some “Good Trouble”.
As its economy ails from self-sabotage, and the empire self-immolates; as the wellness maniacs usher in a golden age of diseases, and as spreading corruption vitiates the the body politic beneath a golden shower of crypto scams, how fitting that its president both embodies and emblazons the rot.

The full ruling explaining why NIH grant cuts are illegal came out today.
It's just as blistering as the judge's oral remarks. And it uncovers fresh details in DOGE's role orchestrating the cuts — and on the cuts at Columbia.
Here are my top highlights from the 103-page ruling. 🧵

After ruling the NIH grant cuts were illegal yesterday, Judge Young, a Reagan appointee on the bench since 1985, ended the hearing with a blistering 15-minute speech.

He is a charismatic candidate, offering things that people want and need. This is not a mystery, but because New York has ranked choice voting we had a real primary process and the people got to choose their candidate
Surprisingly effective things Zohran Mamdani ran on:
-free buses
-rent freeze
-halal cart for $8 instead of $10
-taxing the 1%
-no cost childcare
-city-owned grocery stores
-a Department Of Community Safety for mental health programs and crisis response
-building affordable housing
-why Cuomo sucks

The Supreme Court made it easier for students to prove schools are not making proper accommodations for their disabilities, ruling for the family of a Minnesota teen with a severe form of epilepsy who claimed a school district must do more to offer her instruction outside normal school hours.
