The number of people who think that running, say, one-tenth of a mile in 30 seconds is equivalent to - or anything close to - running one whole mile in 300 seconds (or 5 minutes)

The government’s lawyer, John Sauer "tried to pivot—said they were here to talk injunctions, not the meat of the order. He wanted to slice the issue up like a roast: technical here, existential over there.

Sotomayor wasn’t buying it. 'So if a president banned all guns tomorrow,' she asked, 'do courts have to wait for each person to sue individually?' He mumbled. Sipped water. Looked like he wished the floor would open."

Oh cool, so #viktororban could be the single biggest violator of his own new law targeting hungarian orgs who receive foreign funding.

The Israeli military has said it intercepted a missile launched from Yemen towards its territory.

Yemen’s Houthi group has been firing missiles and drones towards Israel, stating that their actions are acts of solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza.

The Constitution doesn't explicitly mention emergency powers, but many scholars argue it's implied by the structure of the executive branch (and courts have generally been willing to consent to this).

But what happens when a president declares *everything* an emergency?

TL;DR: The Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) threatens to impose censorship online under the guise of protecting minors, leading to over-censorship and suppressing important discussions.
