THREAD: The Trump administration's DOJ has removed a study from the NIJ website that found that immigrants, and particularly undocumented immigrants, commit crimes at significantly lower rates than U.S. citizens. The study is at odds with the Trump regime's propaganda about immigrants & crime. (1)

I really hate this take. You have no idea why people didn't vote. We live in a country with systemic voter suppression. Election Day isn't a national holiday in the US and there's a host of mechanisms set up to encourage people in many states not to vote.

We watched people standing in line for 8-10 hours to vote in Georgia, so they made it illegal to give them water. They called in bomb threats to majority Black polling places. They did everything they could to suppress the vote. And then folks are out here like, "well Georgia voted for this lol"

It was the first night of Pesach and the governors mansion of the Jewish governor was set on fire. This has to be one of, if not the biggest story of the day I will be watching very carefully to see who does and doesn’t cover it Refuah Shlema to the governor and his family

Men are so goofy. Now there’s a trend of men taking Pilates and calling it “BROlates” to show that men too can do Pilates. Masculinity is so fragile that they’re renaming a form of exercise literally named for its creator, Joseph Pilates, a man.

I have a PhD in copyright. I hate the current state of copyright law. We should burn it to the ground and start from scratch. This is not an uncommon view. But the "start from scratch" matters - what we have is broken, but nothing would be worse. Because of parasites like Jack and Elon.

Perioidic reminder that the reason you didn't see autistic people with intellectual disabilities on the street five decades ago was not because they didn't exist. It's because they were sent away to institutions and their parents were told to put away pictures of them.

Number one takeaway from the insane turnout at fight the oligarchy rallies, while chuck schumer cancels his little book tour and gretchen whitmer hides her face, is that there is zero constituency for bipartisanship

It's amazing that 4 congressional Dems voted to make it illegal for married women to vote, and the rest of the Dems didn't respond "ok yeah you are not allowed to call yourself a Democrat anymore, we're not going to help fundraise for you, just go fuck yourself"

Hey, just a quiet reminder: it’s not true that people get more conservative as they age. Populations get more conservative as they age because poor and marginalized people die sooner. nymag.com/intelligence...

RFK is using "healthy" here in a moralistic and eugenic sense if you die of an infectious disease, that just tells him you weren't healthy--in the sense that either you were irresponsible about your health and thus deserve to die, or you are defective and thus are a drain on society while you live

Put your money where your mouth is. This is a phrase folks need to start living by. It doesn't matter what the product is, or how badly you want it - if you don't agree with their philosophies, don't shop there.
