They arrived at the United States border from around the world, hoping to seek asylum. Instead, they were detained, shackled and flown by the U.S. military to a faraway country, Panama. Our exclusive look at a new front in Pres. Trump’s immigration crackdown:

I suppose the only way this could not turn out well is if somehow the Trump Administration is lying for some reason about something, or may be intent on using the law targeting corporate mergers in some nefarious, evil way, like as leverage over vast media companies, for instance. It seems unlikely.

Here's a good rule I go by. If it seems like the Trump Administration is doing something good, you need to check it again, because they are actually doing something evil which you missed. This will be true 100% of the time with no margin of error.

I know we can't advocate for "that thing" anywhere, but oops, there is literally only one appropriate and sufficient response that would have protected the community against this piece of shit. It's galling that no one there had the integrity to stand with those parents and their poor kid.

WARNING: The so-called "50501 protests" are the products of a PAC and a Democrat consultant, not a movement. And it's NOT the group "Our Revolution," though they're clearly aping the style, branding, and design of that organization. I'm not saying to beware: just be wary and stay aware.

Usually these guys need thousands of words to write something something so intellectually and/or morally bankrupt that it signals you should never take anything they say seriously, so this is a quantum leap in efficiency for them.

Sorry but it looks like if this goes into effect, reporting of all public health data including COVID, wastewater testing results, etc. would all stop. And no reporting out any bird flu infection or testing data until further notice. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

I attempt to clear up @adamjentleson.bsky.social’s lexical confusion: “Uncommitted to voting for Democrats” is not the same thing as “committed to voting against Democrats.” If Uncommitted were anti-Democrat, it would therefore be implicitly so — the opposite of “explicitly.” Hope this helps!

They won't because this isn't a mass party: it has no membership, its base are elected officials, its voters have no control over the party, and the consulting class mediate the relationship. And given the media, the powerful police unions and the real estate industry, this is the result

@ahjohnson.bsky.social posted this on Twitter/X but I think it deserves to be posted here too because I think he's right; the US elite is cohering in the wake of Trump's victory in support of militarised borders and the evisceration of dissent

There was a concerted effort in the 1980s-90s to dissuade the government from acting on AIDS by blaming not a virus but the "gay lifestyle," be it drugs or "promiscuity." If it's caused by a virus, it necessitates a public response. If it's caused by a lifestyle, then it's just individualized risks.

I'll add into the discourse around this new paper (www.nature.com/articles/s41...) that this is entirely preventable, but the USDA works hard to protect factory farming as an industry and awful regulations prevent CDC from helping more. We can't write this off as abstracted biology in isolation.

The skull had awoken hours ago. Engulfed in all-encompassing darkness, it began to suspect it was dead. Then! Just as suddenly, it was bathed in a blinding light as the TSA agent unzipped the suitcase and shoved aside socks and shirts. The skull tried, in all futility, to scream.
