counterpoint: there is no professional standards body and no qualification for being an "economist", the profession has nurtured these idiots and now has to own them. "Economist" should not be a term of respect indicating a guarantee of competence and the sooner the public learn this the better

Every person on Bluesky should know: * Every post on Bluesky is PUBLIC forever * Every post on Bluesky is archived by ICE, NSA, and many other agencies * Even if you delete a post, it’s already been captured * Judges don’t care if you were “kidding” or being ironic www.404media.co/the-200-site...

I understand the reasons and that it may not be a permanent condition, but it will never not be wild to me that knife crime island is significantly to the right of the US Supreme Court on trans rights.

“It’s amazing that others in this room underwrote electing a man who, in the last week, single-handedly destroyed all of American science. It’s amazing how much good science you can destroy with $320 million and RFK Jr, very fast.” — Seth Rogen’s censored remarks presenting the Breakthrough Prize

If store-bought canned goods could blind you, you make your own. If late-model vehicles aren't safety tested, you'll buy a used one from a better year. Thrift shops are literally a life-saver.

Exactly. And if he had committed a thousand crimes, it wouldn’t be a heavy lift to prove just one. But DHS and the White House offer nothing but conclusory bullshit.

Trump is the criminal. ICE is a criminal organization. They are breaking laws all day every day. They willfully violate civil and human rights. The innocence or guilt of their victims is irrelevant.

The Framers were very clear with differentiation. They said “citizen” when they meant citizen and said “person(s)” when they meant everyone. There is a reason only a citizen can be president, but all persons are protected under the 5th amendment.

Here is a reminder - the cuts to SNAP and Medicaid the House voted to support are not a done deal yet. This thread is an excellent tutorial on how we can still stop this.

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.

This was my classmate. He was a student in my ethics class, and we used to sit next to each other. Most dedicated person in the class to legitimate justice for all people. He legitimately cared. I am so horribly heartbroken

Absolutely not an exaggeration. High crimes and misdemeanors committed and endorsed in the Oval Office on live television.

I’m autistic, and this is vile and disgusting to inflict torture on autistic children. So I’m going to have a very hard time forgiving anyone who didn’t vote for Kamala Harris. No weak and pale excuse will ever justify letting this happen. #DemVoice1

I haven't donated to Harvard in years for a variety of reasons, and lord knows I still have plenty of issues with them, but really proud of them today. And I'm going to make a little donation to remind them that standing up for academic freedom is GOOD for alumni relations.

Are there not eight Republicans in all the land who can recognize in Trump a grave, historic evil, and who want to protect American democracy and the civil liberties of its residents? Not even a small handful?

Make no mistake, Melania and Usha have more in common with the women screaming at Elizabeth Eckford in this picture than with anyone else. They are not angels.

Going on @ayman.msnbc.com in 45 minutes or so to talk about this nightmare filing. Please remember that if the Trump administration succeeds in establishing this precedent, nothing will stop it from whisking away innocent American citizens to rot in an El Salvador prison forever.

If Trump can claim a "national emergency" to disappear legal residents without due process, what’s to stop him from doing the same to U.S. citizens who oppose him? No one is safe — not even people legally in the country, possibly not even American citizens. Fascism is here.
