This administration sent 200+ fathers, sons, and husbands to be tortured in a foreign prison for the rest of their lives. 9 in 10 have no criminal record. None received any due process. If you aren’t outraged, you need to check your fucking humanity.

That bombshell Wall Street Journal piece on Elon Musk’s creepy “legion” of children and his bizarre procreation fetish is the strongest sign yet that the White House is trying to get rid of him.

"Harvard is changing course, perhaps because it grasped the true takeaway from Columbia’s cautionary tale: Appeasement doesn’t work, because the Trump administration isn’t really trying to reform elite higher education. It’s trying to break it." www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

This is so important. Just because you think your unleashed dog is friendly doesn't mean that the leashed dogs are. My rescue lab is sweet but he's afraid of some big dogs and will react aggressively then. If the other dog is off leash there's no way for me to separate them.

Corollary: If you're gonna pat a dog, ask the owner first. Simple question: "Is it okay if I say hi?"

not going to say the timeline would have turned out way differently if elite universities had just told Elise Stefanik to fuck off a year ago, but it probably wouldn't have hurt

This is what judges should be doing right now. If the Trump administration is going to insist that it can’t bring back anyone once they’re removed, then federal judges should put the brakes on any and all removals until the full legal process—to ensure the removals are valid—has run its course.

Oh dear you’re going to want to read this. Looks like DOGErs were caught exfiltrating NLRB data, likely on unions, for private (seemingly Elony) use. This is must read. What we’ve all suspected. But now details. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

Four R senators and four R House members could announce they're caucusing with the Dems for now, and will vote for Schumer for Majority Leader and Jeffries for Speaker, because the threat to the rule of law is dire. Meanwhile, they'll work with Democrats to construct guardrails against dictatorship.

I really believe the Abrego Garcia case is the fundamental crisis of our democracy. If Trump is allowed to do this there are no freedoms. This right here, right now is the moment.

Almost certainly an anti-Semitic hate crime. And the President who is trying to tear up the American university system on the pretext of fighting anti-Semitism hasn't said a word.

"the state can just summarily imprison someone without filing charges or holding a trial" doesn't just overturn democracy it overturns 1000 years of common law, like throwing out the entire legal system entirely and saying all people in America are the state's property.

The Declaration of Independence is an awesome statement of what a free, fair & just society under the rule of law should be. The opposition to Trump & MAGA are the true inheritors of this tradition. Every opposition rally should read the Declaration to start. www.archives.gov/founding-doc...

i have argued before that MAGA is recapitulating antebellum pro-slavery ideas about citizenship and bodily autonomy. one thing i am also thinking about, when it comes to the rendition of people to a foreign gulag, is the way it is reminiscent of the kidnapping of free blacks for sale into slavery
