"Like any hostage, Adams now has to do what his captors want, knowing that doing what they want offers no promise of release, only more coercion and obedience.... when New Yorkers take to the streets to speak for themselves, Trump will control the man who directs the police who will greet us."

What are we doing here, that this letter has to be shared? That people have to even think through the procedures they're laying out in it? I know our government is showing no depth to its cruelty, but seeing things like this reminds me there is no bottom. Horrifying.

Ah damn it turns out this whole political system relies on false assumptions about how big of an asshole someone could be

My first and definitely last time working with the Los Angeles Times. Editing out the most urgent point of an OpEd in the minutes before sending to press while then also assigning a title and image that suggest an argument entirely opposite to the author’s clear intent is pretty shitty.

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

I don't think Trump is going to invade Greenland or Canada. Frankly, I don't think he'll invade Mexico or Panama either. But it still sets up a huge problem in that substantive diplomacy with the US is functionally impossible if basically nothing can be predicted based on the president's words.

In an alternate timeline, president-elect Harris is facing days of bracingly critical coverage because First Gentleman Emhoff said congestion pricing is an idea other cities should consider.

I find it really hard to understand how THIS is the inhuman incident and inhuman reaction that shows civilization in decline, unless you accept the notion that some lives have value and others don’t.

School vouchers are a re-segregation tax, in which everyone is forced to pay the most racist white people so they can avoid sending their kids to schools with minorities. The only plus side is that the schools suck and don't help their kids get into better colleges. 🙏
