The question everyone is asking right now is this: NYT had deep access into all of this in real time and reported none of it. Why? In consequence, no NYT reporting on this subject is trustworthy.

we didn't immediately get a single all-time folk rock ballad out of the big boat getting stuck, huge L for millennials and zoomers
Ok I had no idea the Edmund Fitzgerald was a contemporary thing for the song, this is like his Toby Keith 9/11 song but about transporting taconite pellets

this is why the discussion about defying courts needs nuance. he’s not ignoring a court order here, but he’s acting with such clear disregard for the courts that there’s really no difference.
Literally days ago a judge slammed a very similar executive order as blatantly unconstitutional. And he just... goes and issues another one against a different law firm, again over direct personal animus.
President Trump on Friday opened a third attack against a private law firm, restricting the business activities of Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison just days after a federal judge ruled such measures appeared to violate the Constitution.

The district court judge was found to have jeopardized the integrity of the Supreme Court by … pointing out that a member of that court clearly violated ethics rules.
“How dare you impugn our integrity by pointing out, correctly, that we don’t have it?!”
This is failed state stuff.

The greatest lie the devil ever told is that norms are the same thing as morals. Norms are contracts, and contracts can be broken by either party. If one party breaks a norm and the other still keeps it, all they are doing is abetting their own abuse under the auspices of certitude.
Thanks for your comment. But I don't think it should be a huge problem to explain and compare these pardon abuses as different actions on a negative continuum. Meaning what Biden did here is bad. What Clinton did was bad! What Trump has done and promises to do is really awful.
I respect your work on behalf of democracy, but I'm sorry, I must disagree on this issue. Pres Biden's pardon of his son is not in service of corruption, it's not a "henchmen pardon." It's nothing like Trump's pardons described in your linked piece.

It was funny when all the big new tech innovations were like Someone Buys Groceries or Drive Me Home because of how it reflected the deficits of the people creating them. But much new AI shit suggests its inventors also don't know why people read or know how to just watch TV, and that's much darker.
