/2 "to show that gerrymandering is racist rather than merely partisan the challenger has to offer race-neutral partisan alternatives" is relatively new despicable shit, and "a state gerrymandering based on a president's explicit written demand for racial gerrymandering is presumed cool" is fresh.
A grand jury no-bill requires, under what I believe is current DOJ policy, the approval of the “responsible U.S. Attorney” before re-submitting it. ”Responsible U.S. Attorney” is, perhaps, an unfortunate phrase in this context.

There are specific reasons Trumpists want war on Venezuela, but there‘s a generic one: they crave power to make war on anyone, any time, for completely fabricated reasons, and then to use the guise of war to increase violence and repression everywhere, including home.
They are lawless bestial scum.
Like 30% of the country is absolutely enraged because they thought they were going to be able to be utter shitbirds without anyone being allowed to call them shitbirds, but here we are, calling them shitbirds.
Dear Journalists on Bluesky: I have a question.
Would you interview notorious liar George Santos, let him accuse female journalists reporting on him of being literal and not metaphorical prostitutes, refrain from any pushback, then publish and promote the interview for clicks?

Fani Willis is an excellent illustration of the concept that MOST Americans are super-deferential to prosecutors to the point of ignoring their bad behavior, so long as the prosecutors are going after someone the Americans in question don’t like.
Nuzzi is like Trump in this sense: the worst thing about America is not that someone that awful exists, the worst thing is that much of the press promotes and normalizes it for clicks.
