“Massive bombshell drops in the Jeffrey Epstein scandal drops as it’s revealed that the White House believes that Ghislaine Maxwell is attempting to blackmail Donald Trump — right as he appears to be considering a pardon for her.

He’s wrong on the law and I think the Supreme Court is going to hold that he is wrong on the law. The same Separation of Powers problems exist for the statute giving District Courts the power to appoint Interim U.S. Attorneys as for the statutes saying Exec. Branch officials can only be fired “for cause.” Congress doesn’t have the authority to create offices that wield Exec. Power and then block POTUS from installing his own picks for those offices. US Attorneys wield Exec. Power even more directly than any of the Independent Agency heads that have been fired but sued under Humphrey’s Executor — they are going to lose because SCOTUS has all but said already that it will overrule Humphreys. If Congress can’t preserve in place via statute an Exec. Branch Officer wielding Exec. Power, the Judiciary can’t dictate who is the sitting U.S. Attorney — either confirmed or otherwise. The Courts can trigger a Constitutional Crisis — it could refuse to allow any Govt Attorney to enter a case if the Govt Attorney works directly for a person the Court doesn’t recognize as a properly appointed U.S. Attorney. That would be part of the Court’s management of its docket. That would be no different than the Court telling DOJ that it can only send licensed attorneys to appear in cases where the US is a party. But the real solution is for the Senate to abandon the parochial “blue slip” tradition that stalls or rejects nominees without a vote. This would all be avoided if the Senate gave Habba a vote on confirmation. But the Dem. Senators from NJ refused to allow that.

Ivy League Science Spectacular Spots Queerness ‘Through the Lens of Deep-Sea Creatures’
Each essay…profiles one…creature: the mother octopus who starves herself while watching over her eggs, the Chinese sturgeon whose migration route has been decimated by pollution and dams, the bizarre Bobbitt worm (named after Lorena), and other uncanny creatures lurking in the deep ocean, far below where the light reaches. … Exploring themes of adaptation, survival, sexuality, and care, and weaving the wonders of marine biology with stories of their own family, relationships, and coming of age, “How Far the Light Reaches” is a book that invites us to envision wilder, grander, and more abundant possibilities for the way we live.
A queer, mixed race writer working in a largely white, male field, science and conservation journalist Sabrina Imbler has always been drawn to the mystery of life in the sea, and particularly to creatures living in hostile or remote environments. “
Good article regarding the hidden costs of tariffs. No, it’s not for free trade haters and AFL-CIO “conservatives” but good reading for those who believe in free trade and free markets.
Indian refineries halt Russian oil purchases after Trump threats India’s state-owned oil refineries stopped importing Russian oil after US President Donald Trump threatened 100% tariffs for cooperation with Russia. The suspension began this week, four industry sources told Reuters. Indian Oil Corp, the largest oil company operating 10 of India’s 20 refineries with a 60-million-ton annual capacity, has ceased purchasing Russian oil. Hindustan Petroleum, Bharat Petroleum, and Mangalore Refinery Petrochemical have also halted imports, sources said. Refineries are seeking alternatives on the spot market, buying from OPEC countries in the Middle East and West Africa. Private refineries Reliance Industries and Nayara Energy, the largest buyers of Russian oil in India, are affected, with Nayara hit by the EU’s 18th sanctions package, Reuters reports.
