    There really could not be much of any other reason for it. Too late. You appointed them for life.

    Naw, he just likes to keep the pot stirred and the devil advocated which is fine by my anarcho-libertarian standards.

    https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/31/us/politics/trump-jews-penn-list-judge.html Federal Judge Approves Trump Effort to Obtain List of Jews From Penn ... “Though ineptly worded, the request had an understandable purpose — to obtain in a narrowly tailored way, as opposed to seeking information on all university employees, information on individuals in Penn’s Jewish community who could have experienced or witnessed antisemitism in the workplace,” he wrote. The judge, however, said that the university would not have to reveal any employee’s connection to “a specific Jewish-related organization.”

    Much tamer, but then we know each other far better. Many, if not most, of us have met IRL. It's a microcosm of human relations. Much harder to ascribe bad motivations to people you know.

    Plain English has been failing at keeping up with technology advancements. Heck, practically all natural languages have the same problem. There will always be subject matter that less than .01% of the population understand. "Plain language" is developed to accommodate the middle one to three sigmas of the general population. There will always be cases when plain language simply cannot do a subject matter justice. But if you really want that compromise to get some aspects of a message across to the middle one to three sigmas of the general population, sure, try a "plain language" approximation. AI can probably do that quite well most of the time these days.
