    1. Music is as much a part of culture in areas with tone languages as elsewhere.
    2. Pitch is used in non-tone languages for lots of stuff (emphasis, enumerating lists, distinguishing statements from questions, etc), so maybe speakers of any language would have comparable effects of such distractors.
    3. Whisper studies (and others) suggest that listeners have plenty of cues besides pitch to distinguish different tones.

  22. Rep. Ted Lieu: "Dear Attorney General Pam Bondi: The body camera footage provides evidence that Border Patrol agents committed vehicular assault and attempted murder of an American. Are you going to open a criminal investigation, or are you going to cover this up like you are doing with the Epstein files?"

  25. Josh Barro: "Trump spent ten months sending the message that the government does what he wants. Demolishing the East Wing was just an exclamation mark on that. So it shouldn't be surprising that Republicans can't offload blame for the shutdown. If Trump wants the government open, why isn't it open?"

    John Harwood: "How can Republican senators walk past Capitol Police, after failing to hold Trump accountable for inciting violence against them?"

  27. Trump wrote that #energy prices would fall if Virginia's voters elect Republicans.

    Jesse Lee said it is a losing argument because "Republicans control everything, even the Virginia governorship, and utility rates are up 10% since Trump took office. How would voting for more Republicans mean anything but more of the same?"

What’s a (lower) court supposed to think about the (Supreme Court's) reasons for a reversal and the proper legal standards for future decisions?":
