Fratsputin, er, Jared to the Rescue!
I know nothing about foreign policy, it’s not my wheelhouse as the kids say (do they still say that?), and neither does Jared Kushner. The Journos at NOTUS’ email thingie: "Final talks?

WTF Is It Now, Kansas?
Somewhere,Kansas Attorney General Kris Kobach is probably smiling: "Transgender Kansans are being informed on the eve of a new state law going into effect that their driver’s licenses will be considered invalid as of Thursday." “Please note that the Legislature did not include a grace period for updating credentials. That means that once the law is officially enacted, your current credentials will be invalid immediately, and you may be subject to…

Midday Palate Cleanser
Crows are not jerks —well, they are, but they are cool jerks— so let’s watch them chase off a big jerk at a farm. And this is true: the entire murder of crows will go after a raptor, so the raptor usually say, “Eff it, I’ll order a pizza." There’s a lot we could learn from these jerk crows. (Looking at you, Blue Dogs.) (Hat tip: Scissorhead Purplehead)
