yes, Arabic folk have won Nobels two Iranians have won the Field Prize someone from Egypt won the Wolf Prize Arabic folk have written some of the most enduring literature in the world Personally, I worked with a number of wonderful Persian researchers at the Stanford Genome Technology Center.

This is like when he swore no one with autism could have a job, create music, write literature. The whole world is only the people he's met personally, and even those personal experiences are so colored by his biases that I'm not sure he's ever known anybody.
RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

At least 18 early voting centers in rural Alaska have not opened as of Friday, state Sen. Bill Wielechowski says. The commonality? All the affected areas have at least a 60% Alaska Native population — with nearly a dozen having Alaska Native populations upwards of 90%: https://demdock.com/4yTW5Ze

The Department of Justice (DOJ) claims a legal doctrine that courts should avoid last-minute changes to election rules to avoid confusion isn’t relevant to its effort to bar California from counting the votes of 20,000 people on a list of alleged noncitizens. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Donald Trump is about to hear the one word he cannot tolerate. NO. November 3 could be the beginning of MAGA's end. But defeat will make Trump more dangerous, not less. The reckoning is coming. And what follows will test the republic. My latest: steveschmidt.substack.com/p/trumps-day...

Reup: The non-answers Todd Blanche gave to Dana Bash and Margaret Brennan yesterday make total sense when you see how much he is pursuing the plot Jeffrey Clark planned on pursuing if HE had been made AG. Clark's plan anticipated political violence. emptywheel.net/2026/10/26/t...

The Ramaswamy ad has pushed the largest newspaper in Ohio, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, to reverse its position on endorsements. "A candidate who uses childhood sexual abuse as a weapon against the person who endured it has crossed a line that Ohioans should defend, whatever their party."

Judge Furman rules that Maureen Comey's firing violated separation of powers. Orders backpay. Govt's arguments violate 2 centuries of SCOTUS rulings & would "unsettle the equilibrium established by this Nation's constitutional system." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Iran wasn't running out of firepower. It was holding back. Now vessels are being sunk, missile tests are accelerating, and the scale of attacks is expanding dramatically. What we're witnessing should terrify Trump's war planners.

NEW: A federal judge has now ruled that former SDNY prosecutor, Maurene Comey, was UNLAWFULLY fired by the Trump DOJ. He orders her retroactive reinstatement and back pay. Comey alleged in her lawsuit that she was fired for politically motivated reasons. www.cnbc.com/2026/10/26/m...

🏞️ Democrats have asked a federal court to toss the DOJ’s lawsuit, saying, “This case never should have been filed.” “DOJ’s Complaint is wholly baseless. The fact that DOJ nonetheless chose to file it raises profound constitutional concerns.”

I don't think I ever watched an episode of Star Trek (science fiction isn't my thing), but I thought casting a Russian while the Cold War was still raging, to make the point that humans would get along better in the future, was a lovely touch.
