I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

i have no doubt that senator van hollen was genuinely concerned for the safety and welfare of abrego garcia BUT ALSO this is what i'm talking about when i say POLITICAL AMBITION. van hollen may well make himself a household name and nationally recognized political figure with this move

Legit the best thing any Dem has done to date in response to Trump and it happened because he cared more about serving his constituents than public polling about immigration.

Guess what the magnitude of threats is actually the main thing that matters about them! Getting struck by lightning and getting cancer are both ‘threats’ in some abstract way but in the real world you should care about one of them and not the other.

I've seen a lot of 'if you wanted to collapse higher education in America, this is how you'd do it," and I don't mean to be rude, but that isn't a distant point: this is them literally, explicitly, and actively working to collapse higher education in this country, and doing it because they want to

@stevemcd1.bsky.social Interesting project and potential dataset.

submitted 10 days ago • 0 comments

Wow! Three scholars at Columbia, Michigan, & Maryland just introduced a measure of the partisan leanings of employers in the U.S. The data is constructed by linking voter registrations to online worker profiles. VRscores capture the political affiliations of 21.8M workers across 2.6M employers.

Like this paper? Here's another that will be right up your alley. Here, the authors merge voter files & online resumes to create a dataset of 34.5M people. They show that Dems & Reps choose distinctive career paths and employers. This leads to a lot of partisan segregation at the workplace.

Striking parallel between Trump and Liz Truss in terms of the power of economics/markets to turn even one’s own partisans against you. Trump isn’t losing any support over his performative cruelty towards immigrants, but is rapidly losing Republicans over economic policy, stock market, inflation etc

It is pretty depressing to realize that fascists can get away with destroying the rule of law, persecuting trans people and so-called “illegals”, as long as they aren’t stupid enough to touch the market. On the other hand they all seem to be sufficiently stupid so there is that.

Why haven’t we seen more mainstream reporting on this?! It is a blueprint describing exactly what has happened since the inauguration, and we should be screaming this from the rooftops. These guys are out to destroy the American system of governance, as *they have stated they want to do.*
