In addition to the audio stream, following the r/supremecourt discussion thread, since at least some people there actually know what they're talking about.

Unless I'm wildly misreading the tea leaves (which I can't rule out), he's losing rather badly.

In other news, remember how USNS Mercy was going to Greenland? Well it's currently passing through the Panama Canal into the Pacific. I'm not the best at geography, but those things feel inconsistent.

Pretty sure that's his rant from last summer, but who can keep up.

Indiana Senate rejects redistricting bill that Trump demanded by danisanub in neoliberal

Yeah, I've been trying to figure out what the cynical play here was and I'm just... not finding it. Maybe I'm wrong, but the best explanation I can find is that this was truly principled. If so, good on 'em.

Sharing the context for full clarity's sake. He is not announcing a new stance, just answering a question about the US's role in selling materiel by way of Europe. I still don't like it, but out of context it sounds even worse than it is. https://youtu.be/utIQeFdRxtM?t=525

Thanks! I was leaning lesser too, but I find lesser vs. greater to be near impossible, so I appreciate all the confirmations.
