A year of work proving Louisiana's congressional map discriminates against Black voters. A 152-page district court opinion finding discrimination, upheld in a 33-page opinion by the most conservative federal court in the nation. Taken away by 6 justices in an act of raw power. https://t.co/PhJ9iROha1

Interesting story. Those aren't the only large urban cities with big cats. Back in the early 1970s, my Boy Scout troop was camped out in Redwood Regional Park, which was inside the city limits of Oakland. The kid I was sharing a tent with woke me up about 4 AM because he heard a weird snuffling noise like someone with bad asthma. I heard it too. It wandered through our camp and at one point went right by our tent. We were too scared to look outside. Finally it seemed to be getting further away, so we got our courage up and poked our heads out of the tent. We saw what looked like the back end of a big lion about 50 feet away and we dived back into our tent. It seemed huge but we decided it had to be a mountain lion. Later we learned a couple of the other scouts heard it too but went back to sleep. We talked to a park ranger and he said they had occasional reports of mountain lions but no confirmed sightings since the 1920s. I expect they were always higher up in the hills and wandered down into the park at times. Since mountain lions are nocturnal and the park is closed at night (except for a few overnight campers once in a while), they rarely got seen. It probably smelled our food.bearister said:

Why are police getting so much worse—every decade, for 60 years—at solving murders?
— Derek Thompson (@DKThomp) July 7, 2022
Largely: It's the guns.
As the share of murders committed with guns grows each decade, physical evidence at the scene goes down, and more cases go unsolved.https://t.co/VlBxa6bQyn

It’s a win for diversity in the DA’s office, but certainly raises quid quo pro questions, as Mayor London Breed will reportedly appoint the star of many anti-Boudin ads Brooke Jenkins as the new district attorney. https://t.co/LyI5YjlLN8

I highlighted the thorough debunking of Heather Knight’s hit piece filled w/ misinformation & purposeful omissions a few weeks ago. Then Heather blocked me for critiquing her. Which says a good amount about her real intentions & professionalism. In case of interest: https://t.co/5GPFkIP2KJ

It is an insanely bad take. The substack piece is a joke. "I called up Brooke Jenkins" who told me she "has a target on her back." OMG!!! Stellar reporter that I am, I swallowed that b.s. whole. Truth: Jenkins is the recall's media darling & badly wanted the DA job for herself. https://t.co/wt0iB6PEpG

The Most Pathetic Men in America - The Atlantic
https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2022/07/kevin-mccarthy-lindsey-graham-trump-devotion-2024-election/661508/
"Trump said and did obviously awful and dangerous things racist and cruel and achingly dumb and downright evil things. But on top of that, he is a uniquely tiresome individual, easily the sorest loser, the most prodigious liar, and the most interminable victim ever to occupy the White House. He is, quite possibly, the biggest crybaby ever to toddle across history's stage, from his inaugural-crowd hemorrhage on day one right down to his bitter, ketchup-flinging end. Seriously, what public figure in the history of the world comes close? I'm genuinely asking.
Bottom line, Trump is an extremely tedious dude to have had in our face for seven years and running. My former New York Times colleague David Brooks wrote it best: "We've got this perverse situation in which the vast analytic powers of the entire world are being spent trying to understand a guy whose thoughts are often just six fireflies beeping randomly in a jar…..
Without the complicity of the Republican Party, Donald Trump would be just a glorified geriatric Fox-watching golfer….
Like Vladimir Putin, Trump will take what people let him take. He will do what he can get away with. The courage and character of Ukraine stands in perverse contrast to America's cowering Republican Party, whose resistance might as well have been led by the Uvalde police.…
My mind roils with thought experiments of what else Republicans could tolerate from him: What if Mike Pence had been hanged? One would hope it would have been disqualifying, but who knows? Right now, the two most likely people to be sworn into office on January 20, 2025, are Joe Biden and Donald Trump (requisite "to be sure" here about all the variablesage, health, jail sentence, etc.). Best-case scenario: Trump loses, his inevitable attempt to cheat the result is unsuccessful, and no one dies this time. And then America sails off again into the future with 109-year-old Joe Biden at the helm. Sigh."
