@SussexBylines The problem with this type of reorganisation is that it duplicates many services. Instead of a cake with several layers it becomes a cake in many slices. Better to create a Unitary across the whole of Sussex, eliminate the duplication and merge the services: Education, Social Care, Waste recycling, Libraries, Transport etc. #Unitary #EastSussex #WestSussex

Will the Supreme Court Crash the Global Economy?
The case in question consolidates two litigations challenging Trump’s firing of commissioners of, respectively,
the National Labor Relations Board, or #NLRB (Wilcox v. Trump),
and the Merit Systems Protection Board, or #MSPB (Harris v. [Treasury Secretary Scott] Bessent).Both of the terminated officials are covered by ⭐️statutory for-cause-only removal safeguards.
Trump and his legal minions acknowledge that there was no basis for removing either official in the requirements specified in the applicable statutes;
both officials had exemplary performance records, which plainly failed to meet the identical criteria in both statutes that permit removal only for “inefficiency, neglect, or malfeasance.”💥Nonetheless, Trump’s Justice Department lawyers maintain that he can ignore these strictures because the Constitution bars Congress from placing any limits on his ability to fire agency heads for any reason or no reason.
“The President,” Solicitor General John Sauer told the justices in his brief, “should not be forced to delegate his executive power to agency heads who are demonstrably at odds with the Administration’s policy objectives for a single day.”In 2020, when conservative justices comprised a five-justice majority, the court decided 5–4,
♦️in Seila Law v CFPB, that the Constitution mandated at-will status for single-headed executive agencies
—namely, in that case, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.But the decision expressly declined to extend this mandate to multimember “independent” agencies, such as the NLRB and the MSPB.
The justices can no longer dodge that fraught question.On April 7, a 7–4 majority of the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit rejected the Trump administration’s claim.
The majority (consisting of all seven of the court’s judges appointed by Democratic presidents) ruled that a 1935 Supreme Court decision upholding for-cause removal protections for heads of multimember agencies remained binding precedent,
never mind that it has fallen out of favor with their Republican-appointed colleagues and other legal luminaries on the right.The Court of Appeals majority ordered the reinstatement of both of the agency board members Trump had fired, pending the outcome of the litigation.
Two days later, Solicitor General Sauer filed an emergency petition in the Supreme Court seeking reversal of the reinstatement order.
Chief Justice Roberts’s warp-speed grant of Sauer’s petition, three hours after it was filed, was interpreted as merely giving the justices time to mull the weighty issues at stake,
not presaging the result after they complete that process
Sauer asked the court to hear and decide the case in the current term, which expires at the end of June.⚠️Why might a critical mass of the Supreme Court’s conservative supermajority shrink from letting their ideology propel them to broaden untrammeled presidential firing authority to multiheaded agencies? ❓
Two potential reasons spring to mind:
the real-world consequences of such an extension
and the doctrinal and empirical holes in the undergirding #unitary #executive theory that scholars have exposed since Justice Antonin Scalia first expounded the current version of that concept in 1988.
Of the two, the calamitous-consequences barrier, while as yet only fleetingly acknowledged by the justices, is no doubt the most daunting.
👉In particular, two words give that prospect intimidating force.
Those words are #the #Fed.As legal scholar Stephen Vladeck recently wrote,
🆘“The not-very-well-kept secret is that the justices are (understandably) wary about handing down a ruling that would allow any President, and perhaps this one in particular, to exercise
🔥direct control over U.S. monetary policy by controlling who sits on the Federal Reserve Board.”Since the original Framers’ establishment of the first and, especially, the second Bank of the United States, a broad and bipartisan consensus has hardened,
in the U.S. as well as every industrialized nation,
that an independent central bank with far-reaching powers is essential to maintaining monetary stability and sustaining economic growth.

Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro is brazenly refusing to honor his agreement to allow a free and fair election this year.
The United States lifted some sanctions in October after the Maduro government and the Venezuelan opposition, known as the #Unitary #Platform, agreed in Barbados on a “road map” that would lead to elections.It stipulated that all candidates would enjoy freedom of movement and assembly, that each party could select its own candidates and that they would have equal access to the media.
But Mr. Maduro has violated the agreement. In June, the regime 🔸barred #María #Corina #Machado, the most popular opposition leader🔸, from running, based on specious corruption allegations.Ms. Machado overwhelmingly won an unofficial opposition nominating contest.
She appealed the ban, but on Jan. 26, the Maduro-controlled Supreme Court turned down her bid for reinstatement

Today is the anniversary of the victory of a militant struggle in France.
White men of left and right coordinated to push young brown and black women back to their rightful place: subaltern.October 2003: Lycée Henri Wallon in Aubervilliers expelled two sisters for wearing headscarves. A deafening political and media controversy ensued. The polemic obtained a law enacted on 15 March 2004, that banned girls wearing headscarves from schools.
Nathalie (in 2015): "I have children to feed and I’m looking for work, so I’m taking off my headscarf. I have no choice. No choice."

If Trump wins, he’ll be a vessel for the most regressive figures in US politics
#CPAC is a harbinger of what a second #Trump presidency would bring,
influenced by a consortium of self-proclaimed #Christian #nationalists and #reactionary #dark #money groups like the Heritage Foundation who see Trump as their return ticket to relevancy.The #Heritage #Foundation has poured $22m into #Project2025, their plan to 🔸gut the “deep state” and radically reshape the government 🔸with a souped-up version of the #unitary #executive theory, which contends that the president should be allowed to enact his agenda without pesky checks and balances.
To paraphrase one speaker at CPAC: ♦️“Welcome to the end of democracy.”♦️
The Heritage Foundation’s policy agenda is disturbingly #radical, even by the standards of the modern Republican party.
They want to #dismantle the administrative state, #ban #abortion completely at the state and federal level, and, as always, #cut #taxes for the rich.They would put #religious #liberties over civil ones, and #Christian rights over the rights of #women, people of color, #LGBTQ+ people and really anyone who does not look and think exactly like they do.
As Trump himself said in an alarmingly theocratic speech last week:
“No one will be touching the cross of Christ under the Trump administration, I swear to you.”And we have no reason to doubt him. Russell #Vought, a radical involved with Project 2025 who speaks with Trump at least twice a month, is a candidate to be the next White House chief of staff.
Vought works closely with the Christian nationalist William #Wolfe, a former Trump administration official who has advocated for ending surrogacy, no-fault divorce, sex education in schools and policies that “subsidize single motherhood”.
The Heritage Foundation has even called for “ending recreational sex”.
Media coverage of Trump tends to focus on his mounting legal woes (nearly half a billion in damages and counting) and increasingly bizarre rants (magnets don’t work underwater).But such an approach misses the point.
We can’t risk focusing on spectacle at the expense of strategy, and he has made his strategy perfectly clear. -

#Language #models. For example, in #NLP, when #training recurrent #neural #networks, it is useful to constraint the transition #matrix to be #unitary. The unitary matrix keeps the #gradient #norm unchanged, and the network is able to learn long-range dependencies. Unitary matrices form a #smooth #Riemannian #manifold, and Riemannian #optimization can be easily applied to them.

I've worked out that the injectivity radius under the Euclidean metric for the #unitary group U(n) is π and for real and special subgroups O(n), SO(n), and SU(n) is π√2.
This seems like a pretty basic property, but I can't find a single reference that gives the injectivity radii for any of these groups. Anyone know of one?
