There’s also a high chance Biden endorses Vice President Kamala Harris, no one else comes forward, and his delegates move to her. While there’s been chatter about Democrats considering someone like California Gov. Gavin Newsom, it looks like Harris would now be the likeliest option. #elections #democrats #joebiden

Are the boys okay?
For much of history, parents have preferred boys, perceiving them as the providers, the family legacy, the heirs to the throne. A dark consequence of China's 36-year-long one-child policy was a 120 boy to 100 girl birth ratio. But in 21st-century America, the script seems to have been flipped. The New York Times has run headlines like "Wanting Daughters, Getting Sons" and "It's a Boy, and It's Okay to be Disappointed."

- Donald Trump is accused of interfering in the 2020 election for his conduct on January 6. At the Supreme Court, he argued former presidents can be prosecuted for official acts only if they are first impeached by the House and convicted by the Senate for the same conduct. The Court rejected that argument.
What it did rule is former presidents are entitled to "absolute" immunity for actions related to their core constitutional powers, "presumptive" immunity for other "official acts," and no immunity for unofficial acts. #SCOTUS #Trump #elections #politics

At last, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is a free man. Why was he ever locked up in the first place?
Before the Justice Department dropped its request for Assange to be extradited to the U.S. to stand trial, he had to plead guilty to violating the Espionage Act. That cleared the way for Assange to walk out of the maximum-security prison in London where he was being held. But it also sets a legal precedent that threatens free speech and journalism worldwide. Assange isn't a spy. He's a publisher, guilty of embarrassing the U.S. government.
"Really anybody who is concerned about press freedom should be deeply concerned about the prosecution of Julian Assange," says Trevor Timm, co-founder of the Freedom of the Press Foundation. "Maybe [some] journalists don't like Julian Assange, or they have criticized one or many of his actions over...

Thirty years ago, the sociologist Craig Reinarman observed that there's something "woven into the very fabric of American culture" that makes us susceptible to believing that a "chemical boogeyman" is to blame for "society's ills." He added that every moral panic about drugs since the 19th century has been fueled by "media magnification" in which the danger of a particular substance is dramatized and distorted.
Now that recreational marijuana is legal in about half of U.S. states, and more Americans are consuming weed than ever before, the chemical bogeyman is back, and he's armed with a new paper in the Journal of the American Heart Association by researchers from Harvard and the University of California, San Francisco.

How's it going in Javier Milei's Argentina?
Milei, Argentina's self-described libertarian president, notched his first legislative victory last week. Argentina's Senate passed a major omnibus bill, also known as the "Bases Law", that has been debated since February.
It would further deregulate the labor market, privatize national industries, cut taxes for foreign companies investing in Argentina, and hand emergency powers to Milei.
