Finally, an evergreen headline from America’s Newspaper of Record:

MY LATEST SUBSTACK ESSAY: Don’t Drone Me, Bro! A new kind of war from the Department of War. But where did it come from?
JOHN ROBERTS, PAY ATTENTION!
District court judges have made themselves a threat to the Republic and the peaceful transfer of power by elections. https://t.co/VEOZP1BvNl

Roberts complains about criticism of federal judges, but the above comes from one of America’s leading constitutional scholars, not some crank.
And it’s correct. If Roberts doesn’t wish to provide over the dissolution of Article III, he needs to do something about the politicization of the judiciary, not complain about the people pointing it out.

Let's unpack this..
What if the White House has no intention of reopening the Strait of Hormuz?
What if this war is really about ships & tariffs?
I had a long discussion with senior DOE official yesterday on background. I can’t share any details but it’s clear everyone’s… https://t.co/DCP0uw7C4E

People still think of the Strait as a vital lifeline for the United States, but as the world’s biggest producer — now outproducing Saudi Arabia and Russia combined — we don’t need the oil. (Plus more from Venezuela is coming online daily). As a net exporter, we benefit from less competition.

YEAH, I’M SURPRISED. NOT: You don’t say?

Sufficiently advanced science is indistinguishable from magic.
On a lost colony world, mad geneticists thought they could eliminate inequality by making everyone hermaphrodite. They were wrong. Catastrophically wrong.
Now technology indistinguishable from magic courses through the veins of the inhabitants, making their barbaric civilization survivable—and Publius Cornelius Scipio Africanus Kayel Hayden, Viscount Webson, Envoy of the Star Empire—Skip to his friends— has just crash-landed through a time-space rift into the middle of it all.
Dodging assassins and plummeting from high windows was just the beginning. With a desperate king and an archmagician as his only allies, Scipio must outrun death itself while battling beasts, traitors, and infiltrators bent on finishing what the founders started: total destruction.
Two worlds. One chance. No time to lose.Volume 1
The Ambassador Corps has rules: you cannot know everything, don’t get horizontal with the natives, don’t make promises you can’t keep.
They’re a lot harder to follow when assassins are hunting you, your barbarian allies could kill you for the wrong word, and death lurks around every corner.
The unwritten rule? Never identify with the natives.
Skip’s already broken that one.
Now he’s racing against time to save his new friends from slavery—or worse—while dodging energy blasts and political intrigue. One crash-landed diplomat. A world of deadly secrets. And absolutely no backup.Some rules are meant to be broken. Others will get you killed.
