    Last year I ran an AMA while sitting in a field waiting to graduate from my undergrad program. I had planned to do the same thing again as I graduated from my master's program but was foiled by the 502 Bad Gateway last week, and then forgot to do it after as I was busy with moving and celebrations.

    So, 1 year older (and wiser? -ish?), with deeper eye bags and less sleep, AMA

    The federal government is abandoning an effort to create a $1.8bn secretive fund to compensate Donald Trump’s allies, but is maintaining an agreement that prohibits the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) from auditing Trump, his family and related entities, the acting attorney general, Todd Blanche, said on Tuesday.

  8. Comment on Israel's parliament has voted to dissolve itself in ~society

    Israel's parliament approved a bill on Wednesday to dissolve itself, potentially bringing forward by a few weeks the next national election, which surveys predict Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will lose.

    The vote came now because an ultra-Orthodox Jewish ​faction, traditionally a close political ally of Netanyahu, announced this month that it no longer sees the prime minister as a partner and will ​seek an early election.

    The ultra-Orthodox leaders said they were doing this because Netanyahu's coalition had not kept a promise to pass a ⁠law that would exempt their community from mandatory service in Israel's conscript military. At the same time, opposition parties have long sought to topple Netanyahu's government.

    Polls have since consistently shown Netanyahu's governing coalition falling ‌far short ⁠of a parliamentary majority. However, there is also a chance that opposition parties will fail to form a coalition, leaving Netanyahu at the head of an interim government until the political stalemate is broken.
