The White House is abandoning plans to nominate a Kentucky lawyer who opposes abortion rights and is backed by Senator Mitch McConnell to a federal court seat, citing opposition from Senator Rand Paul, Mr. McConnells home-state colleague.

The resistance from Mr. McConnells fellow Republican marked a new twist over a potential nomination that had prompted outrage on the left. Democrats were incensed that President Bidens team had agreed to advance a conservative chosen by Mr. McConnell to fill a district court vacancy as the party is stepping up its focus on countering new abortion restrictions.

The prospective nominee, Chad Meredith, had successfully defended Kentuckys anti-abortion law as a lawyer for the state. Mr. Bidens plan to nominate him was made public by The Louisville Courier-Journal just before the Supreme Court overturned the Roe v. Wade precedent that established abortion rights.

Mr. McConnell, the minority leader, who has a deep interest in shaping the federal judiciary, said the White House intended to follow through on its commitment to nominate Mr. Meredith until Mr. Paul objected. Mr. Paul informed the White House that he would not return a blue slip consenting to the nomination of Mr. Meredith, who is now in private practice.

The blue slip tradition followed by the Senate Judiciary Committee effectively gives home-state senators veto power over the selection of federal district court judges for their states. [Antifar's note: Republicans did not abide by this tradition during the Trump administration, Democrats brought it back into use]

In considering potential district court nominees, the White House learned that Senator Rand Paul will not return a blue slip on Chad Meredith, Andrew Bates, a White House spokesman, said Friday in a statement. Therefore, the White House will not nominate Mr. Meredith.

The outcome has left Mr. McConnell frustrated and some Democrats mystified. It pulled back the curtain on a seldom discussed back channel of communication that remains between Mr. McConnell and Mr. Biden, who were once negotiating partners in the Senate but who have more recently had little to do with one another as the Kentucky Republican works to sink the Democratic presidents agenda.

Still, Mr. McConnell said he had persuaded the White House to do him a personal favor by putting a young conservative on the bench, only to be thwarted by a Republican colleague.

The net result of this is it has prevented me from getting my kind of judge out of a liberal Democratic president, Mr. McConnell said in an interview, calling Mr. Pauls position just utterly pointless.
...
In Kentucky, Gov. Andy Beshear, a Democrat, had called the impending nomination indefensible and urged the White House to drop the idea. Representative John Yarmuth, Democrat of Kentucky, was outraged as well. With Mr. Biden in the White House, Democrats assumed they not their nemesis Mr. McConnell would be consulted on home-state nominations.

Mr. Beshear also pointed to Mr. Merediths possible connection to pardons issued by former Gov. Matt Bevin that have come under intense scrutiny, saying any role in those pardons would be disqualifying. But Mr. McConnell noted that Mr. Meredith cleared an F.B.I. background check done in preparation for the nomination.
...
Though the presidents long tenure on Capitol Hill and his past work with Mr. McConnell were initially thought to be big advantages, they have not worked out that way for Mr. Biden. Mr. McConnell has been a persistent obstacle and in recent days threatened to try to block legislation intended to improve American competitiveness with China a measure Mr. McConnell supported if Mr. Biden and congressional Democrats proceeded with a party-line tax bill.

Stellar work all around

https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/arizona/2022/07/14/arizona-cities-would-collapse-without-prison-labor/10062910002/?cid=twitter_azcentral

Arizona Department of Corrections director David Shinn said Arizona communities would collapse without cheap prison labor, during testimony before the Joint Legislative Budget Committee Thursday.

Shinn made the statement while answering questions about a Request For Proposal for a contract to run the Florence West prison.

Sen. David Gowan asked Shinn about the nature of the work the prisoners do at the Florence West prison. In Arizona, all people in state prisons are forced to work 40 hours a week with exceptions for prisoners with health care conditions and other conflicting programming schedules. Some prisoners earn just 10 cents an hour for their work.

These are low-level worker inmates that work in the communities around the county itself, I would imagine? Gowan asked.

Yes. The department does more than just incarcerate folks, Shinn replied. There are services that this department provides to city, county, local jurisdictions, that simply can't be quantified at a rate that most jurisdictions could ever afford. If you were to remove these folks from that equation, things would collapse in many of your counties, for your constituents.

The state currently contracts with The GEO Group, one of the largest private prison companies, to run Florence West, a minimum security prison that can hold up to 750 people.

Budget committee staffer Geoff Paulsen said the state had purchased the facility through incremental payments over the life of the current contract, with the intention of the state taking ownership in October 2022.

The facility was built in 1997.

After taking ownership, the state would either need to provide staffing for the prison, or contract staffing out to another private contractor.

Shinn told the committee at this point, the state is in no position to run Florence West, citing 1,891 vacancies among corrections officers throughout the Department of Corrections.

If the state were to take this over today, we would literally have to shut down functions and close programs, Shinn said. We cannot support that level of activity without our partners.

As with most other private prison contracts in Arizona, the RFP to run Florence West guarantees the vendor a 90% occupancy rate, meaning the state pays a per diem rate for 675 prisoners, regardless of how many people are actually incarcerated there.

As of July 13, there were only 457 prisoners at Florence West.

Rep. Kelli Butler asked Shinn why the state would agree to such a contract condition, in which the state would likely be paying for more than 200 empty beds.

https://www.niemanlab.org/2022/07/unimaginable-abortion-stories-will-become-more-common-is-american-journalism-ready/

As more states restrict or ban abortion, more girls who are raped will face a choice between crossing state lines for care or having babies while they are still in elementary school.

I wish that this werent true. But events this week make it very clear that if you cant bear to believe it even if it seems so impossible that it needs a heartily skeptical fact-checking treatment it is going to happen.

And reporters who want to tell these stories (and the news organizations those reporters work for) may have to abandon some conventional journalism wisdom in order to give the stories the attention they deserve.

Last week, in response to the Supreme Courts vote to strike down Roe v. Wade, President Joe Biden signed an executive order in an attempt to protect abortion access. In remarks at the time, Biden said, Just last week, it was reported that a 10-year-old girl was a rape victim 10 years old and she was forced to have to travel out of state to Indiana to seek to terminate the pregnancy and maybe save her life. The story he was citing was published by the Indianapolis Star on July 1.
...
The two-byline story written by Shari Rudavsky and Rachel Fradette made headlines around the world. But the first reaction of mainly right-leaning news organizations despite the fact that the doctor who performed the abortion was on the record saying this happened was to try to debunk it. Why? I mean, in part because its horrible and we dont want to believe a 10-year-old could get raped and pregnant, because 10-year-olds are babies themselves. (By the way, Covid appears to have increased early-onset puberty around the world. Getting your period early now means getting it when youre younger than 8. People for whom a pregnant 10-year-old strains credulity should keep this in mind.)

The debate over the storys veracity started with a Washington Post Fact Checker column. In A one-source story about a 10-year-old and an abortion goes viral, the Posts Glenn Kessler wrote:

"The only source cited for the anecdote was Bernard. Shes on the record, but there is no indication that the newspaper made other attempts to confirm her account. The storys lead reporter, Shari Rudavsky, did not respond to a query asking whether additional sourcing was obtained. A Gannett spokeswoman provided a comment from Bro Krift, the newspapers executive editor: The facts and sourcing about people crossing state lines into Indiana, including the 10-year-old girl, for abortions are clear. We have no additional comment at this time.
Kessler notes that Bernard declined to identify to the Fact Checker her colleague or the city where the child was located and that after a spot check, he was unable to find evidence that the rape had been reported in Ohio. He wrote:

This is a very difficult story to check. Bernard is on the record, but obtaining documents or other confirmation is all but impossible without details that would identify the locality where the rape occurred.

Kessler doesnt appear to consider the professional, non-nefarious reasons that a doctor might have for declining to share the names of her colleagues, or why she might be loath to (plus, due to privacy laws, legally prohibited from) disclose the name and address of her patient who was raped to a national newspaper.

An abortion by a 10-year-old is pretty rare, Kessler notes. (Oh, that by.) The Columbus Dispatch reported that in 2020, 52 people under the age of 15 received an abortion in Ohio. []Definitions of rare may vary, but if 52 under-15-year-olds got abortions in Ohio in 2020, thats one a week and its just abortions that were reported, during a pandemic when a lot of abortion clinics were closed.

The Post column opened the door to worse takes. Every day that goes by, the more likely that this is a fabrication. I know the cops and prosecutors in this state. Theres not one of them that wouldnt be turning over every rock, looking for this guy and they would have charged him, Ohio attorney general Dave Yost told USA Todays Ohio Network bureau on Tuesday. Picking up on Kesslers single source criticism, Yost added, Shame on the Indianapolis paper that ran this thing on a single source who has an obvious axe to grind.

The Wall Street Journals editorial board called the episode An abortion story too good to confirm, as if there was something particularly juicy and delicious about this one (hint: Its her age!)

Mid-day on Wednesday, the Indianapolis Star published its follow-up. An Ohio man has been charged with the 10-year-olds rape. In the story, which has four bylines, reporters Tony Cook, Bethany Bruner, Monroe Trombly, and Dayeon Eom note that Columbus police were made aware of the girls pregnancy through a referral by Franklin County Children Services that was made by her mother on June 22, that the timeline given by police coincides with the account Dr. Caitlin Bernard, an Indianapolis physician who provides abortion services, shared, and that the girl had recently turned 10, meaning she was likely impregnated at 9 years old.

This story is an interesting example of how news can be widely shared these days, Kessler told me via email. It was picked up by outlets around the world and it was based on one source someone who was an activist in one side of the debate without an apparent effort to confirm it. This fact check added more context and was updated once there was a new development.
...
In America after the end of Roe v. Wade, one brave source on the record in the final story will often be the best we can get. Obviously, reporters and editors must make sure that their reporting is accurate and true! But those who believe that the end of legal abortion in many states is newsworthy will need to figure out how to report and publish these stories with a few more constraints than theyd prefer. If performing or receiving an abortion now counts as activism, well, then journalists will need to be okay quoting activists, unless they only want to tell the anti-abortion movements side.

https://theintercept.com/2022/07/13/afghanistan-aid-defense-bill-ilhan-omar/

AHEAD OF A contentious final vote on the 2023 National Defense Authorization Act, or NDAA, Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., introduced an eleventh-hour amendment seeking to prevent a collapse of U.S. humanitarian aid to millions of Afghans. The amendment came in response to language in the military spending bill that prohibits Defense Department funds from being used to transport currency or other items of value to the Taliban, the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, or any subsidiary, agent, or instrumentality of either the Taliban or the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, effectively halting American aid to the Taliban-controlled country.

While the bills language places emphasis on banning the transport of currency, it will also block Defense Department planes from transporting nearly every conceivable good including food and lifesaving medical supplies to Afghanistan, where tens of millions of people currently face starvation and medicine shortages. A major earthquake last month brought in a flurry of international assistance, including humanitarian aid from the U.S. military help that would be barred by the new legislation.

The Defense Department is often called in to provide security and logistics support for aid flights but also in the transportation of currency. If the U.S. does ever make good on releasing Afghanistans foreign currency reserves, the new law would complicate the process of delivering it securely.

Omars amendment would have granted President Joe Biden the ability to waive the prohibition on using Defense Department funding to transport aid if he recognized a pressing humanitarian need or if doing so would further the national interests of the U.S. The fact that humanitarian waivers are commonplace for sanctioned countries, including Iran and Venezuela, highlights the draconian nature of the bills final language.

With more Afghans set to die from starvation in 2022 than from the longest military campaign in U.S. history, this weeks NDAA vote will have grave and outsize consequences for millions of civilians. The amendment faced two hurdles: First, it needed to be deemed in order by the House Rules Committee in order to get a floor vote. Second, it would have needed majority support. And previous floor votes suggested that not only would Republicans oppose it, but so would a number of Democrats up for reelection, looking to burnish their anti-Taliban credentials.

In February, Democratic representatives including Josh Gottheimer of New Jersey, Sean Patrick Maloney of New York, Kurt Schrader of Oregon, Chris Pappas of New Hampshire, David Trone of Maryland, and Conor Lamb of Pennsylvania voted against a related amendment introduced by Congressional Progressive Caucus Chair Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash. The Jayapal amendment forced a vote on releasing the $9.4 billion in Afghan central bank funds frozen by the U.S. government, which, if passed, would have restored the seized foreign reserves comprising everyday Afghans life savings to halt the total collapse of the national economy. Thanks to the help of Republican-allied Democrats, the amendment failed to pass the House, undermining the Afghan governments ability to pay for basic civil services and Afghan civilians ability to buy food.

With Omars amendment ruled out of order, the United States has eliminated one of the last lines of support to Afghanistan, where decades of war, a pillaged central bank, and last months catastrophic earthquake have reduced food centers, water infrastructure, and health resources to rubble. In the coming months, Defense Department planes ferrying aid to hundreds of thousands of civilians around the city of Khost, where the earthquake struck, would be grounded.

Afghanistan is facing one of the most horrific humanitarian crises on the planet. Almost 95 percent of Afghans dont have enough food to eat, a massive increase from last year, Omar told The Intercept. The recent earthquake killed nearly 1,000 people and destroyed thousands more homes. We should be doing everything in our power to deliver humanitarian assistance to the Afghan people, not needlessly limiting the aid we can supply. My amendment simply gave the president authority to deliver lifesaving aid, instead of needlessly hamstringing him.

How much more do you expect to make at a new job and what are the chances you would land one?

We'd be talking a difference of ~10% possibly, but the biggest thing for me would be the benefits: PTO, health insurance.

I got a couple calls about interviews today, but I also see the # of people applying for these positions on Indeed being in the hundreds, so that scares me a little. I have a sizable financial cushion; if it takes a few months for me to land a job, I can survive that, but, you know, I'd rather not.

I'm comfortable in my current job. It's far from ideal, but I've gotten into a routine with it and it's manageable. But it's also a contract position, and my contract is up at the end of the month. My boss has grown increasingly desperate to keep me on for another year, offering things that would legitimately address some of my problems with the job (namely the schedule).

But I also am aware that if I go job hunting, I could probably get myself a better position, which would make me more comfortable financially and also have a better schedule. But there's the fear that 1. I won't land another job, and 2. what I land will be less comfortable (i.e. allow less time for me to dick off online) than now.

why do security guards have an interrogation room?

Good question

https://bit.ly/3uL5vI8

When Chelsea Robinson saw the video of her fathers arrest, she was taken aback.
It broke my heart, Robinson said. He was just standing there, not doing anything.

It was April 10 of last year, and Hughie Robinson, who was 52 at the time, had just finished a four-day stint at Barnes-Jewish Hospital. He was a kidney patient, suffering from stage 4 renal failure.

On April 7, he got good news: he was second in line for a possible kidney transplant. So on that day, he drove to the hospital and parked in the garage where he normally parked, on Kingshighway near Interstate 64 (Highway 40). He was in the hospital for four days, in a weakened state, drugged and prepared for the transplant that never came.

On April 10, he went home. But the hospital called. He forgot his wallet in the room. When you come back, they told him, park in the garage on Euclid and Forest Park avenues. Robinson did what he was asked. He retrieved his wallet and then started the walk back to the Kingshighway garage, where he normally parked.

Robinson looked for his Buick and couldnt find it. He asked for help at the main desk. He looked again to no avail, this time with the help of a security guard. Eventually, while he was wandering the garage looking for his car, he caught the attention of other Barnes-Jewish security guards.

The guards apparently suspected that Robinson was casing the garage, looking to steal cars. They never asked him for the parking garage ticket he had in his pocket. They didnt notice that he was wearing a patient bracelet, from his just completed four-day stay.

This is how his arrest is described in the lawsuit he filed last year against the hospital for assault, battery and false imprisonment:

While Hughie was continuing to look for his Buick, several of Defendants security guards, including the guard who had earlier been assigned to help Hughie locate his car, approached Hughie. Hughie asked, What did I do? The guards did not answer. Instead, one guard grabbed Hughies shoulder and arm forcefully, in the spot where Hughies arm was tender from the port. Another of Defendants guards tackled Hughie. Both guards began to beat him. A third guard then jumped on top of Hughie. Hughie cried out that the guards were hurting him. At least one of the guards responded, Good. The guards then forced Hughie into a pair of handcuffs. All of this was on video.

About that video: Chelsea almost didnt get to see it. After her fathers attorney, Richard Voytas, filed the lawsuit, attorneys for BJC HealthCare sought a protective order to keep videos out of the public eye. St. Louis Circuit Court Judge Joan Moriarty granted the order but later reversed herself, when it was clear that the two key videos didnt show any other identifiable patients that might have privacy concerns.

After tackling Robinson, the three officers took him to an interrogation room, where they questioned him about what he was doing in the garage. In the room, one video shows an officer using his forearm to smash Hughies head into the wall, according to the lawsuit. The officers told Robinson, If one of my officers, or WashU officers see you back on this property again, were going to do this whole thing again, cause you aint supposed to be here. You cool with that? Dont come back

Robinson, of course, had to come back. He was still receiving regular treatment for his kidney condition. For a while, he would call Voytas and ask him to come along for appointments.

He was scared, his daughter said.

In court filings, BJC denies wrongdoing in the arrest and follow-up interrogation. Moriarty ruled against BJCs motion to dismiss the lawsuit. Through a spokeswoman, BJC declined comment on the pending litigation.

In the time since the lawsuit was filed, Robinson succumbed to his illness and died. Now his daughter hopes the case provides some level of justice for the man that she said used to light up the room.

Those pool clips are cool though.

... Michelle Goldberg at the New York Times today wrote a piece subtly titled, Joe Biden Is Too Old to Be President Again. In it, she hand-wrings and flatters Biden, but ultimately determines his problem is that he's too old to be a viable Democratic nominee in 2024. Citing a recent poll showing 64 percent of Democrats think Biden shouldnt run again due to his age, Goldberg insists Biden should step down and announce hell be a one-term president.

Goldberg is not alone: Increasingly the Democratic Partys horrible poll numbers and gloomy prospect for the midterms and beyond are being chalked up to too many old-timers running the Party. But, as I read more and more of these takes, its becoming clear this line of argument, while superficially attractive, obscures more than it elucidates. To wit, at the close of her piece, Goldberg clearly shows how little she understand the nature of the problem, writing:

"There are plenty of possibilities: If Vice President Kamala Harriss approval ratings remain underwater, Democrats have a number of charismatic governors and senators they can turn to. Biden said, during the 2020 campaign, that he wanted to be a bridge to a new generation of Democrats. Soon it will be time to cross it."

This mentality, that Democrats can just plug in any charismatic governors and senator and have a better show at winning in 2024, is the exact thinking that got us into a situation where were 28 months away from a full-blown Republican takeover of every major political institution. It shows theres little interest in building a sustainable or robust political coalition, or creating bigger moral narratives to counter the Rights dark vision of nonstop attack on trans people, education, black activists, and immigrants. The goal is to simply survive, hoping to effectively trick the electorate into delivering you 50.0001 percent of electors because a candidate has a winning smile and a beautiful family.

In her analysis, Goldberg makes zero mention of bill failures, ideological incoherence, corporate interests constraining policy options, unpopular austerity, and a failure to deliver on major promises. No, its just that Bidens old.

If we cannot properly name the problem, we have no chance of solving it.
...
Other pundits than Michelle Goldberg, of course, have been making the argument Biden is too old. Even some on the progressive wing of the Party. And, on an intuitive level, one can see the appeal: It vaguely seems true. But there are institutional incentives, as evidenced by the focus on age by Party hatchet people like Goldberg, to turn the conversation into one of The Lame Olds, rather than ideology. Indeed, as @wideofthepost noted, the young voters who are abandoning Biden in swaths are not citing his age, but his policies, for doing so. Its the eldest demographic of voters most concerned with Bidens geriatric properties.
https://twitter.com/wideofthepost/status/1546465940879056897

The reason this explanation may be attractive to some is theres likely a correlation, even if they have the causation backwards. To the extent gerontocracy is an issue, its the logical byproduct of conservative, neoliberal capture of our politics, not the cause of it. Put simply: It makes perfect sense that those in the Democratic Party who most dutifully serve the donor base, punch left, lower expectations, ignore activists, dote on Israel, shred any faint remanence of ideological commitment, and embrace liberal imperialist conventional wisdom, more broadly, would be far less likely to get weeded out, lose elections, or get primaried. It makes sense, then, that those least willing or incentivized to tackle existential problems of climate change, inequality, systematic racism, and the corruption of federal courts would be the most likely to simply stick around. But, as I noted last week, simply replacing neoliberal dinosaurs who outlasted their more ideological, left-wing colleagues with a young whippersnapper from the increasingly deep bench of conservative Democrats brought up from McKinsey or spooksville wont do much to address the fundamental issue that the Democrats have no coherent message and are hostile to class politics.

https://thecolumn.substack.com/p/discussions-of-bidens-age-are-a-distraction

Its not hard to piece together how someone whose stated views were about the importance and natural-ness of hierarchies, and whose life advice implored people to take care of individual issues rather than think structurally, would appeal to a movement like the alt-right.

And also audience capture probably plays a part in this story. If you gain an audience (and the money and influence that accompanies it) on the basis of transphobia, how do you maintain and build that audience?

https://www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/news/denis-molla-brooklyn-center-arson-charges/

MINNEAPOLIS A Brooklyn Center man faces federal charges after he lit his own camper on fire to make it look like a politically-motivated crime, and then allegedly filed several fraudulent insurance claims.

The U.S. Attorney's Office says Denis Vladmirovich Molla, 29, is charged with two counts of wire fraud in connection with the fire that took place on September 23, 2020.

Molla reported to police that someone set fire to his camper "because it had a Trump 2020 flag displayed on it," and spray painted the Antifa symbol, "BLM" and "Biden 2020" on his garage door. The U.S. Attorney's Office says Molla actually lit the fire and defaced the garage himself.

Court documents show that Molla then "submitted multiple insurance claims seeking coverage for the damage to his garage, camper, vehicles, and residence caused by the fire."

Molla submitted insurance claims totaling more than $300,000, receiving only $61,000 in the process. He then accused his insurance company of "defrauding him." Court documents show he also yielded more than $17,000 from two GoFundMe accounts.

Taking a corporation's word at face value on something like this is real naive.
