Trump’s lawyer remains frustrated they can’t get info about the informant: “We want to review the affidavit for ourselves. We definitely want to know what they’re claiming they have as evidence. Their withholding of information .. is the first step to tyranny.”

I see “Epstiened” being used a lot to denote “murderer by a cabal,” because people still believe in hyper-competent successfully-secret murder cabals more than they believe in a pervasively murderously indifferent or malevolent system.

This whole line of thought that you shouldn't say things that you think are true because those things may be "weaponized" by others strikes me as fairly corrosive to intellectual life. You can't control how other people react to things.

One of my early critiques of the anti-1619 literature from the older generation of tenured historians wasn't that the 1619 Project is sacrosanct -- it very clearly isn't -- but the tone and stridency of their critiques was very clearly going to be weaponized by the right.
