The author of this article refused to sign an NDA, giving up severance and healthcare benefits to tell this story.
If you didn't read it already, read it.
Because he refused, we may be able to stop the Kennedy Center from being sold for parts and turned into a gaudy MAGA fundraising warehouse.

The British military says a cargo vessel was attacked near the Strait of Hormuz, damaging containers on board. The attack is the second on Saturday, after two gunboats from Iran’s Revelatory Guards opened fire on a tanker transiting the key waterway.
Notice how we just get this detail w/no explanation how this happened if, as Whiskey Pete and Donald Trump have claimed over and over, Iran's entire military was sunk?
It's not even a drone or a fishing boat, at least as described.

The rise of the shadow docket in 2016 was followed in 2017 by another procedural trick from the Roberts Court, known as "Munsingwear vacatur," which they weaponized to wipe out progressive precedent without having to explain why. Profs. Lisa Tucker (my wife) and Michael Risch (he's not) explain. 1/2
Joe Rogan is as open to both sides of an argument as Charlie Kirk was.
He just has a different aesthetic, a different brand.
But he still supports the racist antisemitic homophobic child abusing President.
I guess Joe Rogan sees all that as just being a regular guy.
Regular guy Joe Rogan.
You may not like it, but this is what “political homelessness” looks like
Excellent and brief explainer on the“SHADOW DOCKET“ and its origins.
A breathtaking use of Comic Sans … So powerful!
An NYT headline reading: Homeland Security Expands Deportation Fleet With High-End Jets
My headline from April 15 reading: Water is wet, and DHS's 'deportation fleet' boondoggle expands under Markwayne
The hed and dek of my story from February reading: ICE FLIGHTS Noem's luxury 'deportation' jet is the tip of the ICE-berg Kristi Noem's DHS has acquired at least nine new aircraft in recent weeks, with another one on the way. Half are luxury jets. Gillian Brockell 26 Feb 2026 - 9 min read
Hey @nytimes.com, I already reported this earlier this week.
And the G650s you mention? I reported on those in FEBRUARY.
You credit NBC News and WSJ for first reporting parts of your story. Please credit me, too.
If/when Dems regain control of Congress, the path is clear. No clerks. No building. No shadow docket. Nothing, until the Wizards In Robes stop ignoring the law, data, history, precedent, & the plain meaning of words in the Constitution. And there will be 25, with 9 chosen by lottery for any case.
ICYMI: Watch @benjaminwittes.lawfaremedia.org, @annabower.bsky.social, @ericcolumbus.bsky.social, and @rparloff.bsky.social discuss the disbarment of John Eastman, the Justice Department dropping the last Jan. 6 criminal matters, and more.
Rep Justin Jones made a statement entrance, walking into the Tennessee legislature with an"Abolish ICE" flag. No subtlety. No backing down.🔥🔥
🧵Tradwife culture is moving further into the mainstream. People who watch this film will likely come away with a better sense of the performance, hypocrisy and marketing behind the movement. But, the real issue is the way tradwife content functions as an algorithmic gateway into far-right ideology.
When Colbert teams up with @sydneykamlager.bsky.social @meidastouch.com, you never know what will happen.
She is a flamethrower. 🔥🔥
You really really have to listen to this to believe it.

Wouldn't surprise me at all if he was in DC, but Im confident he would not be involved in the action. Chad is a hands off Dandy that always gets someone else to do his dirty work.
I can't get it to reproduce in a photo, but the butt end of the white part is embossed "250 V".
I'm thinking it's a light switch, but who knows.
Yes, white porcelain with brass. very handsome and well constructed.
I'm getting flashes from '69, I'm at my grandparents house in Indiana, the sconce lights in the bathroom I believe had these light switches.
Here, have a "coprolite", it may not serve as a devastating insult, but you can actually hit someone over the head with it. 🪨
I’ve been deep in the Epstein network’s art collection for months now. Not skimming. Not pulling obvious pieces.
Actually sitting with the images, one by one (no matter how uncomfortable) long enough for patterns to start revealing themselves. 🧵
👊 "Effluent" has always been one of my favorite sleeper words.
DOJ demanded voter files from all 50 states.
DOJ sued 31 states for refusing their demand.
My law firm intervened to protect voters in those cases.
DOJ is now 0-5.
My firm is 5-0.
Lesson: When we fight we win.
And from the "Annals of Being Surprised that Water is Wet," a new study found that ICE has been hiring people with "questionable qualifications" and histories of lying to frame innocent people.
Seriously, though, it is good that they did the careful study even though the results are obvious.
Anybody care to speculate on what this might be? 🤔
Well I totally agree,👇🏽

About 2% of the US population receive tips, 6.98 million people.
15% of 7 million = 1,050,000 live below poverty level
37% earn too little to have any federal income tax liability
63% of US tipped workers earn enough to pay federal income tax
4 million of 350 million = no tax on tips
BREAKING: Louisiana has advanced one of the cruelest anti-homeless bills in the country. It would force homeless people to choose between jail and involuntary treatment, make them pay for it, and if they can't pay, force them to perform unpaid labor. buff.ly/d6rXj5h
