A big step in the right direction. Long overdue. The primary sponsors of this bill are: - Ron Wyden (D) - Mike Lee (R) - Warren Davidson (R) - Zoe Lofgren (D) The bill would require a warrant before the FBI can search Americans' communications collected under Section 702

Sometimes the most effective amici are the surprising ones. Magicians Penn & Teller (with the UT Clinic) just filed an amicus brief for a Texas death-row prisoner convicted partly on “hypnotically enhanced testimony,” arguing it’s the same technique they use to trick audiences.

This is 100% completely unsustainable as a society. Nearly 50% of all consumer spending now comes from the top 10% of earners. The bottom 80%? Their share keeps falling. This is why the economy can look strong in the data while millions of people feel like they're falling

Wild that WaPo is ceding its home turf, sports, and int’l coverage for the crowded “nat’l” beat. I’m not following this closely enough. Is there some smart focused play I’m missing, or have they sown the seeds for their own demise?

It sounds like an exaggeration but you really do regularly come across people in LA over the last few years who will straight up tell you that it’s no longer viable to work in film/tv and they’re looking for a new career. $900 million against that backdrop is unconscionable

Watch the video. Imagine being 12 hours into your pregnancy and zoom you into courtroom, railroad you into a c section. The reality in Florida today post “fetal personhood” law.

"Nearly five years." Investigative journalism takes years and years. The investment is immense, and always worth it, and, in the era of "hot takes" and ephemeral "content," rigorously reported journalistic work is needed more than ever. We must keep supporting investigative

Amusing if not dark. The transition to thinking purely in transactional and predatory terms when it comes to foreign policy will take a moment, but we will all regret it. Finnish prez at Chatham House 👇🏾

Jerome Powell: "If you look at total core inflation, it's about 3%. Some big chunk of that, around 1/2 or 3/4, is actually tariffs."

Nick Shirley’s Minnesota video claimed to expose $110 million in daycare fraud. His claims remained unsubstantiated. State inspectors found the centers operating normally. Many had already been audited. The downstream consequences were not unsubstantiated. Ten billion dollars in
