A lot of people are going to be up in arms about ICE's tactics here. But I ask you to consider the horrifying alternative: the guys you see with a truck outside Home Depot continuing to chop it up on a Saturday, and possibly even purchasing one of those Home Depot hot dogs at one point.

LAPD officer and wannabe tough guy Zachary Adler is completely unhinged right now. He was putting his hands on people all night and now he’s walking up to people threatening to shoot point blank. Fuck these pigs.

At this point if there is a nom-incumbent name on the Democratic primary ballot, you should vote for them. Any name—doesnt matter who, so long as they are not part of whatever the fuck this is

They will never try believing different things to address economic inequality. Brutal austerity capitalism can be solved with a simple PR gloss.

They blame pollution but cut the EPA and clean air and water regulations. They blame poor nutrition but cut SNAP and programs to bring local produce to schools. They blame increased screen time while destroying public infrastructure that connects people. All while they take millions off healthcare.

It's possible to get PACER fee waivers, but they're not available to journalists like Chris. The US Courts should reevaluate this policy. It's embarrassing to paywall this kind of essential work.

This is a funny story because of how it establishes that all around the world, even the most nihilistic ultra-rich freaks are realizing this shit is stupid, wasteful, and unnecessary and Trump is like "the big plane has a couch in it, it's the highest premium leather," www.forbes.com/sites/jeremy...

WOW. The Trump admin said they will review social media and deny immigration benefits to people saying antisemitic claims. They're even trying to deport people with green cards on alleged claims of antisemitism. Anyway, here's a tweet from an Afrikaner they flew here on Monday.

I am the same on this. I don't know what the "abundance" shit means. My guess though is it doesn't involve raising tax rates or enforcing existing tax law against our oligarchs, so I will continue to ignore it.

“No one is spared—not children, persons with disabilities, nursing mothers, journalists, health professionals, aid workers, or hostages. Since breaking the ceasefire, Israel has killed hundreds of Palestinians, many daily—peaking on 18 March 2025 with 600 casualties in 24 hours, 400 were children."

Even if you accept Stephen Miller’s (textually, historically, and morally indefensible) claim that undocumented immigrants are not entitled to due process, you’d still need due process to ensure that the individuals at issue are, in fact, undocumented. His argument fails even on its own terms.

The Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments state “no person” not “no citizen” regarding due process protections. The language is intentional. How do we know that? Within the Fourteenth Amendment, the Privileges and Immunities Clause specifically says “citizens” not “persons.”
