Trump administration officials do something that isn’t “being on TV”: impossible

i think what’s most dangerous about this belief is that it legitimizes the structural demolition of science the US is carrying out and its underfunding elsewhere

Third Amendment constitutional crisis incoming

I cannot adequately express — for legal reasons if nothing else — the depths of my contempt and hatred for this man and all his enablers

U guys remember when a rapid withdrawal from a 20yr quagmire in accordance with a Trump deal became “abandoning our allies to the Taliban,” which kneecapped Biden’s popularity and it never recovered?

I have nothing but contempt for dem elected and commentators using this moment to primarily finger wag at protesters or to tell them not to make Trump mad

Roe, then Obergefell, then Loving

kind of just endlessly sad and grieving that there are so few voices in the public sphere making the basic principled argument that immigration is an affirmative good in every way and the best way for this country to serve humanity is to welcome people who want or need to leave their homes

Every accusation is a confession

We need to complete these large prisons ICE is building, so that the agents can then occupy them

The constitutional system of government put a black man in charge so it had to be destroyed, is honestly a good parsimonious explanation of the last two decades

Let’s make Trump and Elon cellies in federal prison and set up a 24h live feed

Am no longer in academia but tbh my erstwhile publishing desiderata were 99% based on which journals’ typesetting I liked the best

Marc Andreesen has “just asked” this exact question on JRE lol

Marco Rubio Alexander Haig moment when

Already saw at least one Dem Congressman making the same point about denaturalization and just begging, begging people not to descend to the level of calling for stripping the citizenship of people you don't like.

Inshallah, before long they will be permanent residents of a federal penitentiary

mommunism

this @adambonica.bsky.social piece deserves to be read beside the yeoman work that @donmoyn.bsky.social and @pamherd.bsky.social have been doing. The dismantling of administrative expertise is one of those stories that is so big that pro journalists with beats find it hard to focus on or explain .

“Am I a joke to you?”

I don’t think even the GOP is innumerate enough that this doesn’t dawn on them. They just don’t want sources of independent knowledge production for Gramscian and/or dominionist reasons

Masked men who refuse to show ID take an employee away from a western Massachusetts business, over the protestations of the owner. web.archive.org/web/20250530...

Heavily armed paramilitary forces stormed a local San Diego restaurant today, deployed stun grenades against a crowd of onlookers, and kidnapped a handful of kitchen workers.

ICE must quite simply be destroyed

His argument is def horseshit all the way down It’s also not the he “doesn’t know” about immigrants’ importance to the national mission of Apollo. It’s that he denies it He’s a denialist, you might say

NOW— Mass ICE arrests happened/are happening at the Manhattan immigration court at 290 Broadway on the 20th floor. I was just outside the building and an observer came out crying, confirmed they witnessed people getting detained outside courtrooms while families watched and wept.

Last time Trump called for remigration (a form of ethnic cleansing), national media outlets absolutely failed to cover it. They NEED to do a better job explaining it this time. www.mediamatters.org/donald-trump...

The US government is communicating to immigrants in the clearest terms that it it will punish them and terrorize their children if they do the things that the government asks them to do: appear at court hearings, pay taxes

There is signal in the Musk/Cummings noise if you clear away the ridiculous egos - reforming the modern state via brute force is, basically, impossible. You can damage things, fire people, cut spending but the vast majority of things the state does are deeply embedded and critical functions.

remigration is neo-nazi speak for ethnic cleansing. wrote a whole story about the origins of the word here: www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

ICE must quite simply be destroyed
