Whoever figures out how to sterilize milk will be so famous they’ll probably name the process after them.
This is bonkers. MAHA 'farmers' with ecoli tainted raw milk admit they really don't know how to make the stuff after all.

If DOJ is sending these teams to help charge cases, but only for "one or two weeks" at a time, then who is going to prosecute the cases after they leave?
Exclusive: DOJ is requiring all 93 US attorneys to designate prosecutors for "emergency jump teams" supporting surge districts dealing with assaults & obstruction of federal officers, per internal memo. Comes as more Minn. prosecutors resign. news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/...

Thanks for the tag, Isaac. Keeping in mind I am coming at this from the behind-the-scenes/partisan perspective rather than the government perspective, I have given this some thought. I think there are a lot of necessary-but-not-by-themselves-sufficient things state/local governments can do:

The Senate’s opposition leader is like “someone should do something about all this lawlessness” and some 55 year old mom in Minnesota who hasn’t voted since 2012 is like “the evildoers will be vanquished with the righteousness of a million patriots!!”
It’s great.

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

I agree that it’s high fucking time that we stopped acting like we need to grovel and constantly justify the existence of some of our most incredibly elemental and ancient human pursuits.
Are the humanities the only disciplines whose classes begin with modules speaking to the importance of studying the humanities? "Why study the humanities?" and "Why the humanities are important" must be cliches.
