House Democrats need to bring articles of impeachment against Kristi Noem, while Senate Democrats need to bring that chamber to a fucking halt.

The cruelty in today's politics feels horribly corrosive. Bringing up that hard-working immigrant families — undocumented, yes, but not violent criminals — are being ripped apart based on immigration status doesn't bring compassion or even pause, but gleeful cheers.

Remember when Colbert roasted W at the 2006 correspondents‘ dinner, quipping that “reality has a well-known liberal bias”? Twenty years later (almost), and the NPS is now required to crowdsource “information” based on personal feelings because the historical facts are deemed too unpleasant. Cool. 🗃️

New from me: I wrote about the soon to be 88-year-old Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton saying she’s running for a 19th term. It speaks to both the gerontocracy problem among Democrats and, unfortunately for DC residents, “how little value is placed in the seat she holds.”

Trump and his cronies want farm workers afraid. They know when workers fear federal agents, they're less likely to report wage theft or bad conditions. We're fighting hard against the Trump Admin's destructive, xenophobic campaign. Donate today! ufw.org/fightback #WeFeedYou

Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” guts Medicaid and aid programs to extend tax breaks, yet analysts say it could still balloon the debt by trillions. Critics call it a reverse Robin Hood in disguise. Slashing care for millions to fund cuts for the wealthy. #MomSky finance.yahoo.com/news/white-h...

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

It is time for Democrats to go on the attack, and take away tax-exempt status for every church that unabashedly campaigned for Trump. Take off the gloves, start to destroy the opposing institutions that fund the fascist movement.

We need to be aware of the companies—like Costco in retail, Chase in banking and Perkins Coie in law—that are fighting back or ignoring the bullying executive orders coming from 47. As an aside, the WSJ political reporting has been much clearer than either NYT or WaPo, as this headline suggests.

The idea that race is a social & historical construct has a long history. It was a central plank of the post WWII US consensus for obvious reasons given what pseudo-scientific racism had wrought. One of the central planks of the US right in the post WWII era was that race is a biologically reality.

I am genuinely struggling to process the images of ICE Nazi-Barbie Kristi Noem standing in front of a cage of barely clothed men with shaved heads. These send shudders down my spine. What I can't understand is: how are these viewed by Trump supporters? Especially Jewish Trump supporters?

People using Grok to get actual knowledge is like going fishing in a puddle on the sidewalk. Aside from being unethical it’s so inaccurate. In the heyday of google you could actually find out information this way. But there is knowledge loss happening if people think they are learning through AI.

The whole point is not just the state disappearing whoever they want, it's you being in the habit of accepting the state choosing whom to disappear, without question. It's submission to the state. Same as with Gitmo after 9/11. The state's judgment must not be questioned.
