    "Can," but won't.

  • That's my guess, too.

  • Font of ‘wasteful’ diversity: Trump’s state department orders return to Times New Roman

    Jump

  • The experts and my own eyeballs agree that Calibri is slightly easier to read than Times New Roman, and it's an improvement in legibility that means a lot to people with poor eyesight. But Republicans don't give a shit about people with vision issues, probably think they should pull their eyes up by their bootstraps, so Times New Roman it is.

  • We'd love to release it, but there's pending litigation. We want to release it, but first there needs to be more redactions. And then, eventually, OK, we're ready now.

  • This time it's BREAKING, though.

  • Man Charged for Wiping Phone Before CBP Could Search It

    Jump

  • The exact circumstances around the search—such as why CBP wanted to search the phone in the first place—are not known.

    Knowing nothing makes it hard to know what's going on here, but unless there's a subpoena or court order, it can't be illegal to wipe your own phone. Not in a free country, anyway.

    The report said Gach did not know why, even years later.

    That's the article's only mention of "Gach," so wtf?

  • More of this, please.

  • The U.S. citizens getting caught in Trump’s immigration crackdown | Latinos describe being detained and assaulted by officers who want to know: “Where were you born?”

    Jump

  • This is OK coverage, late and mild but needed, but the distinction between US citizens and non-citizens is moot to me. I don't give a third of a turd where a 15-year-old kid terrorized by ICE agents was born. Nobody deserves this, whether they're 'legal' or not.

  • Washington, other West Coast states, go against CDC, recommend hepatitis B vaccine for all newborns

    Jump

  • Will the CDC's bullshit recommendation be used by insurance companies to deny coverage for the shots?

  • Resigning would be counterproductive, short-term and especially in the long-term, but I'd be delighted if one or two sane members of the SC went on strike, by ditching the legal lingo and issuing plain-English dissents.

  • Pete Hegseth told US soldiers in Iraq to ignore legal advice on rules of engagement

    Jump

  • A few Dem office-holders will say things. Maybe a random Dem will file a bill criticizing Hegseth. Other than that, nope, Dems won't do anything, because doing anything would piss off their bosses, the Republicans.

  • Pete Hegseth told US soldiers in Iraq to ignore legal advice on rules of engagement

    Jump

  • But some US senators have raised the possibility that the US war secretary committed a war crime.

    A fairly minor quibble, I suppose, but whatever the hell he calls himself, Hegseth is not the Secretary of War.

  • It has nothing to do with security, everything to do with Big Brotherhood. They love having a database of everyone's travels.

  • Pete Hegseth told US soldiers in Iraq to ignore legal advice on rules of engagement

    Jump

  • Yes, it's kinda nuts.

    In 2021, it was January 6 that infuriated so many people, though Trump had committed a thousand impeachable acts before that day. By now he's up to 10,000+, but this one seems to stick more than the rest, when it's probably not in the top twenty.

    It's kinda nuts, but I'll welcome anything that gets people pissed off at any sliver of the Trump crime wave.

  • ... since the birth of my second daughter.

    As absolutely always, when you find a Republican office-holder with a smidgen of empathy, it's because the outrage in question affects them personally. If it's not about them or their family, the cruelty is fine, even enjoyable.
