It’s worth noting that the lawyers for the school district filed a “suggestion of mootness” in this case, pointing out that the praying coach had moved to Florida and did not appear to have any intention of resuming coaching even if SCOTUS ordered the district to rehire him. /1

An example of what happens when the Supreme Court bases a decision on a set of deliberately false factual assertions: reality finds ways to intrude and make fools of everyone. https://t.co/Tw2HXG5rxn

Okay y'all, I think I found the best idea for the Dynamic Island on the iPhone 14 Pro. I added a cat that lives up there like a tamagotchi and just hangs out and does cute stuff as you browse Reddit in my app (Apollo).

Every president needs aides but he has better political judgment than the average Dem staffer and his “gaffes” are usually good.

"Biden’s insistence on Sunday night that the pandemic is over caught several of his own health officials by surprise. The declaration was not part of his planned remarks ahead of the “60 Minutes” interview"
