Update to Elno fighting with NPR: he's not mad and he's not owned. Definitely tell everyone that he's not mad and not owned. He's having a great time and laughing. Definitely tell everyone that he's laughing and having a great time and not owned or mad.

Those flags make him look like he's wearing a Cubist uniform, it's like you can see his front and both sides at once :thejoke:

Isn't there something huge coming up with Chevron too? Like, the potential to straight up dismantle the entire concept of government as we understand it today? Opening Arguments said they were going to do a piece on it coming up soon and it sounds just loving absurd how much some people want to flat out destroy what (laughably) attempts to pass for stable US society.

That's the concept of Chevron deference, named after a 1984 Supreme Court case involving Chevron which established the principle of the courts deferring to a government agency's interpretation of statutes based on that agency's subject matter expertise in the relevant field.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevron_U.S.A.%2C_Inc._v._Natural_Resources_Defense_Council%2C_Inc.?wprov=sfla1

Ironically the original case was something of a Conservative win, since it revolved around Reagan's EPA (run by Neil Gorsuch's mother Anne at the time) deciding to take a more industry-friendly interpretation of Carter's Clean Air Act. During the Reagan era the strategy was to defang regulations the Conservatives hated by putting Conservative appointees in charge of the Executive agencies in charge of enforcement, since they lacked the legislative and judicial control needed to fully repeal/overturn them. Nowadays its become the opposite in that its those pesky woke bureaucrats refusing to play along with the right-wing fringe thats taken over the courts and state governments, so they're tearing down the scaffolding now that they no longer need it.

They've taken a few swings at it the last few sessions with the Covid workplace mandates and West Virginia v EPA, and there's a few more cases coming up that may complete the removal of Chevron.

I'm not a big Twitter user but how does that even work? Does he embed videos into his tweets? Exclusive long form twitter threads? Are there any other Twitter-based 'shows' out there?

Benning's name change to Moore is supposed to be tomorrow and there's a ton of salty local vets who couldn't even tell you who Benning was. You'd think if anything they'd be on board with renaming it after a guy played by Mel Gibson but :lol:

"I don't care if you're a Baptist or a Catholic" truly the full spectrum of Americans for these folks. Good to know the South has managed to move past the English Civil War era.

The future is a useless, dangerous, proprietary version of a subway. Brilliant job.

Also significantly slower and with far less throughput, I think they're only going 25 mph on the one they've built on the strip and one seat of each car is taken up by the driver courtesy concierge.

I still remember Fox News canvassing a Florida diner for DeSantis supporters a month or two ago and *even the lady in a DeSantis campaign shirt* was 'yeah Trump's my number one choice for 2024.'

Such tremendous Jeb! energy.

Trump's got the one thing all these guys (including DeSantis) wish they had, which is complete and utter confidence. DeSantis is their reality, a red faced guy in a polo shirt who despite their efforts knows that everyone can see and laugh at their insecurities and failures.

Taking bets on what catty nickname Trump comes up with for Pence if/when he announces.
