Beyond the fact that I love this photo, I think about this concept ALL OF THE TIME. As an archivist, I am really conscious of the fact that it's likely we'll have a more robust understanding of the 18 and 19th centuries than of the 21st century. Why? PAPER. bsky.app/profile/doro...

the piece mentions that fleming hits the ball harder than any woman twice in the first few paragraphs and then waits until 2500 words in to mention that this was false.

Personally, I think it should be front page news for at least a month if a sitting US President is using falsified evidence to try and deny due process to a man who has committed no crime, but that’s just me

Is the consensus among mainstream journalists that the White House slandering a man they delivered into slavery using a crudely manipulated photo in the president’s grasp in the Oval Office is just not a very newsworthy event?

My god, the image from that TNR article about Dems/immigration. I won't share it, but the resonances are unmissable. The picture alone would make Yglesias, Silver, and Carville—if they had any good in them—close their mouths forever and live lives of penitent service to left immigrant organizers.

It's really extraordinary to get a 1 a.m. order from the U.S. Supreme Court on litigation that didn't even exist until 8 hours ago. That suggests that (at least 7 of them) are taking this Constitutional threat seriously.

NEW — Emails show Mohsen Mahdawi pleading for months to Columbia for help. He asked about an FBI visit to his home & a mysterious break-in. He also asked Columbia to publicly clarify a lie the Trump admin would later cite to justify detaining Mohsen. No response. He was detained a month later.

I need to raise $40,000 to provide stipends for 20 young people ages 16-24 over the summer so they can participate in an independent study program. If anyone would either want to sponsor a young person ($2000 each) or wants to donate funds in another amount, let me know. Thanks.

That would be a perfect opportunity for the Democratic Party in the role of a shadow government to re-create the previous COVID website and to direct its voters there.

Since I've been an immigration reporter, I've covered cases in which ICE has waited outside of a DV hearing to detain a survivor, stalked teenage asylum seekers on their way to school, & colluded with USCIS to lure someone in sanctuary out of church for a fake biometrics appointment.

Been telling colleagues that the leaders most equipped to deal with this Trump administration are the same ones who had moral clarity about Gaza. It's because they understood how these polices are interconnected. Van Hollen has been and is one of those people.

Last December, Chris Van Hollen wrote an op ed entitled "History will judge Biden harshly on Gaza" in which he -Called for Smotrich and Ben Gvir to be sanctioned -For US and international law to be enforced and for an arms embargo -For a total embargo on settler goods -For recognition of Palestine

The only appropriate response to this is impeachment and removal from office. Every moment the political press spends spinning out theories about 2026 and immigration polling is a minute they are not spending asking Republicans in Congress about their plans to enforce the rule of law

Interesting to go through the social media of the arsonist targeting Josh Shapiro. People want a convenient way to categorize him and there is just no easy way to. He was very much a "both sides suck" guy. But he does have one thing in common with those who engage in these acts: deep misogyny.

one thing that Democratic politicians should take note of is that the overlap between “great political optics” and “actual morally good stuff” is really big right now

You know the only reason he got out so fast was a reporter live posted about this for hours. And, a large amount of public pressure. Every time someone gets grabbed, there has to be a robust public response immediately.

If Congress gives Trump hundreds of billions of dollars for ICE detention and gestapo thugs, we can expect many, many more such cases. That’s one reason we have to ensure lockstep dem opposition to any budget that increases immigration enforcement or detention spending.
