I have a theory that the collapse of civic virtue among political correspondents is linked to the collapse of local journalism as the route up.

Video of unidentified men -- one wearing a balaclava -- handcuffing a man and taking him away from a courthouse. "Show us your warrant," said one woman, to no avail. "I've been here since 1999, and I have not seen anything like this before," said a lawyer. dailyprogress.com/news/local/c...

NEW from @nytimes.com: A bone-chilling account. A Venezuelan man detained alongside the 238 sent to El Salvador on March 15 seems to have disappeared off the face of the earth. His name isn't among the names of those sent to CECOT that day and no one spotted him among those men. He's just... gone.

I filmed this yesterday on my way to Lousiana where my constituent Rümeysa Öztürk is being wrongfully held by ICE. I’m there now demanding her release. More to come.

Mahmoud Khalil’s wife, Dr. Noor Abdalla, gave birth to their first child today, a baby boy. In a statement, she said, “My son and I should not be navigating his first days on earth without Mahmoud. ICE and the Trump administration have stolen these precious moments from our family…”

Van Hollen is safe in MD against both a primary challenge and a GOP challenger no matter how much money AIPAC throws at him. These ads are a signal designed to dissuade other more vulnerable Dems from sticking their neck out.

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

this is such good news. i think it is also an opportunity for democrats to state forthrightly that when they win power again everyone responsible for this crime will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law and will face the american people to answer for their lawlessness

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.

Sharing from X: "ICE is filing declarations in multiple cases admitting they don't have power to terminate student status, so students whose student records (SEVIS) are terminated remain in valid status. This means colleges disenrolling students (a majority) are punishing them for no reason."

Man films and confronts two suspected undercover ICE officers (potentially NYPD) after they racially profiled and handcuffed a random civilian. Keep doing this shit. Make these fuckers famous. Make all police and immigration officers fear having their faces known to the masses.

It certainly looks like Elon Musk’s henchmen stole all the data from the agency which protects workers rights, tried to cover it up, and then threatened to kill the guy who blew the whistle on it.

I know you aren't going to want to hear this but the reason the system can deport Mahmoud Khalil and send Kilmar Abrego Garcia to El Salvador is that for years we've been executing factually innocent people like Marcellus Williams and sending legally innocent people to places like Riker's Island.

Public opinion on immigration is malleable and responds to visible cruelty, a thing democrats are cursed to relearn when out of power and then fail to build upon once in office.

I think one thing chatGPT's invention has revealed is how many people - including some very important people in society - find just basic reading and writing to be laborious and cumbersome to perform, and how oddly closely that type of strained literacy correlates with having other shitty opinions.
