Yes, that would be my interpretation of the subtext also. That doesn’t come close to ghoulish though. Also, it appears that Netanyahu is already doing his best to strain the terms of the agreement.

It is not the word. Broiling is a cooking technique of using very high direct radiant heat (i.e. cooking below the heat source). In England and Europe it’s often called “grilling”.

Almost certainly the latter. Rogan has forged a remarkable career in legitimizing authoritarianism, and he’s never been more valuable to oligarchs than now.

Yes, and this lawsuit follows a whole series of other actions by the SEC. It may seem like a long time, but due process was followed.

$150 for a meal and five movie tickets doesn’t seem expensive to me. That’s honestly not bad for a meal alone.
