- This sort of stuff, like abuse of the flag (flying it off a truck, thin blue line), is exactly the sort of stuff that my Iowa-born grandmother loathed and saw as evidence of a low and unpatriotic character.
- Since it seems everybody is waiting for the white house to give Trump something to sign tomorrow morning on drug prices, here’s some reading from @hjarman.bsky.social @martinmckee.bsky.social and Tamara Hervey on the first Trump administration’s batty approach pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30017548/
- While I want the Supreme Court to tap the brakes on Trump’s authoritarianism, I also fear that if SCOTUS does some last minute good it will divert attention from the fact that the decisions of its Republican majority put us here. Supreme Court reform is an imperative if we are to have a democracy.

- Holy cow. It starts bad and gets worse. I thought baselessly arresting a mayor was bad. Then we learn they did it in front of three members of congress. Then we learn ICE started shoving the members of congress while kidnapping the mayor. This is authoritarianism.

- Why is IHE publishing a press release?
