Det var säkert både och. Artikeln var alltså intressant i att få läsa om hur de ser på sitt uppdrag och enligt min mening hade texten blivit bättre utan värdeorden från dig i den. Det som inte framgår alls av den här artikeln är att jag vet hur viktigt lagrådsgranskningen anses vara för departementen. Om man bara var DN läsare utan en bredare kunskap så skulle man kunna få uppfattningen att regeringar oavsett färg alltid struntar i lagrådet. Så är det inte.

Fint att kunna läsa DN balanserade och objektiva artiklar utan värderingar i texten.

För att hinna med i Tidöregeringens lagstiftningstempo har Lagrådet tvingats kalla in tolv pensionerade domare. De tunga juristerna levererar ofta brutal kritik. Men hur känns det när regeringen struntar i deras invändningar? dn.se/sverige/toppju…

Let's have a re-do of Reconstruction in the U.S. starting with a re-enactment of Sherman's march. Although this time, the racists will not have the chance of rising again.

I did not expect to find myself nodding along to Tzipi Livni, Israel's former, and hawkish, Foreign Minister. Yet here we are. She is right on this: A State that treats the rule of law as optional, and human rights as conditional on race or nationality, irreparably corrodes itself. The decades-long project of violently subjugating Palestinians has not only harmed its victims. It has consumed Israel, from within.

Schroedinger's Strait
Shanaka Anslem Perera ⚡@shanaka86
BREAKING: The Strait of Hormuz is no longer closed. It is no longer open. It is something the world has never seen before: a permissioned corridor run by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, priced at $2 million per vessel, payable in yuan. Three ships transited in the last 24 hours. Three. Out of a pre-war average of 60 per day. Total throughput: 310,000 deadweight tonnes. Three percent of normal. Four hundred vessels are waiting outside the strait right now. One hundred and fifty tankers. One hundred and twenty bulk carriers. One hundred and thirty others. Waiting for permission from the IRGC Navy to enter a 5-nautical-mile channel between Larak and Qeshm islands inside Iranian territorial waters. This is how the gate works. A vessel operator contacts approved intermediaries with IRGC connections, submitting full documentation: IMO number, ownership chain, cargo manifest, destination, crew list. The intermediaries forward the package to the IRGC Navy’s Hormozgan Provincial Command for sanctions screening, cargo alignment checks that prioritise oil over all other commodities, and geopolitical vetting. The toll is approximately $2 million per tanker. For a VLCC carrying 2 million barrels, that is $1 per barrel. Preferred currency: yuan. If the vessel passes, the IRGC issues a clearance code and route instructions. Upon approach, VHF radio hail, AIS verification, patrol boat escort. One ship at a time. Through the narrowest channel of the most important waterway on Earth. Iranian crude is still flowing. Approximately 1.1 to 1.5 million barrels per day, mostly to China, at near pre-war levels. Iran’s own oil transits the strait it controls. The blockade applies to everyone else. Iran is simultaneously the gatekeeper and the primary beneficiary. The toll funds the IRGC. The IRGC maintains the gate. The gate generates the toll. The circle is self-sustaining. Now look at what is NOT transiting. Fertiliser. Gulf nations supply 49 percent of the world’s exported urea. Ammonia requires the natural gas that Qatar declared Force Majeure on and that Iranian strikes disrupted at South Pars. Effectively zero fertiliser vessels have received approval through the permissioned corridor. The IRGC is prioritising oil because oil generates revenue. Fertiliser does not. The molecules that feed four billion people are trapped behind a gate that only opens for molecules that fund the gatekeeper. The yuan preference is the structural shift that outlasts the war. Every tanker that pays in yuan instead of dollars establishes a precedent. Every precedent weakens the petrodollar architecture that has governed energy trade since 1974. The IRGC is not just blocking a strait. It is building an alternative payment rail under live fire. The $2 million toll in yuan is not a fee. It is a proof of concept for a post-dollar energy settlement system, stress-tested in the most extreme conditions imaginable: a three-front war with the world’s largest military. The world’s central banks are trapped by the same strait: the Fed cannot cut, the ECB is hiking, the BOJ is tightening. Six countries are rationing fuel. Japan’s 10-year yield hit a 27-year high. Slovenia has QR codes at the pump. South Korea is barring government vehicles one day per week. And behind all of it, 400 ships wait outside a 5-nautical-mile channel for a clearance code from the IRGC Navy, payable in a currency that is not the dollar. Twenty percent of the world’s oil supply. Controlled by a VHF radio call and a yuan transfer. The strait did not close. It changed ownership. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

These are not jurists. We need to throw them all in jail and appropriate all of their assets.

The Supreme Court spent 3 hours on Monday arguing over whether to change a century and a half of election law in order to soothe Donald Trump's bruised ego. They just might. Because the GOP and their justices are beyond craven. My latest in @thenation thenation.com/article/politi…

Seven Days@sevendaysvt
At least two police agencies are facing questions about their response to Wednesday’s chaotic protest on South Burlington’s Dorset Street, where federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents surrounded a house as they sought to apprehend an undocumented Mexican man. Burlington police “will be conducting a comprehensive BPD use of force review for the events in South Burlington,” Mayor Emma Mulvaney-Stanak said. A woman accused one officer of throwing her to the ground. State police, too, are fielding questions about their officers’ conduct — and in particular whether they violated the state’s Fair and Impartial Policing Policy, which prohibits them from aiding federal immigration agents in enforcing civil immigration law. sevendaysvt.com/news/questions…

This helps explain the rot within the @VTGOP as exemplified by Samuel Douglass and his wife Brianna.
They are obviously not the exception, they are the norm.

On the one hand, this could be the straw that finally broke the MAGA-crazed fever that is ruining our country.

@flauneun @Geenimetsuri @StefanFSchubert But that's because the Swedish government turned most of the rental apartments into co-ops 25-30 years ago. That greatly the skewed income levels of people living in inner Stockholm. Before that there was much greater economic diversity among inhabitants.
English
@Geenimetsuri @StefanFSchubert In practice, the renting market is even more segregated than the owner market in Stockholm. To get a rent-controlled apartment in the core areas, you need to wait >25 years. People who can afford to wait that long have good finances already. It's not poor people who live there.
English
How market rents would change rents in Stockholm.
Rent would double in desirable parts of the city centre, but wouldn’t change at all in less desirable suburbs.
Rent control is a very ineffective way to reduce inequality.

It was an honor meeting with @SecRollins and several other members of the Florida Congressional Delegation.
We discussed crucial steps to free up relief for farmers and agricultural producers across the great state of Florida after the February freeze.
I will continue to fight for those who work hard to put food on our tables, and I will always stand up for Florida’s farmers and producers.

You'd think @RepFine would be all over this anti-semitism in his home state of Florida but he proves he is just a putz, a vantz.

As you go to the polls on Tuesday in Vermont, don't vote @vtgop - a party that 1) supports corrupt oligarchs over working people 2) protects rich pedophiles & 3) sends armed masked gunmen to murder people on our streets. Wrong for #vtpoli, wrong for the U.S.

You need to stop treating these people like some normal Vermont neighbor and start treating them like the British at Ticonderoga.

He's got a point! @RepHaridopolos is saying: You need to Register to Buy Beer! You need to Register to Fly.
