“Ninety-two percent of the targeted Medicaid recipients already work, are in school, have family caregiving responsibilities or have disabilities.” The proposed work requirements have nothing to do with waste, they are designed to cut enrollment through paperwork. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/08/o...

Not only could Trump NOT end the war in Ukraine or Gaza, he has started one in the United States.

talking with non-politics-obsessed friends across the U.S. over the last few weeks & they all feel like they don’t know what to do because nothing in their daily routine has changed & would activate under a more imminent threat cue sending them: www.vox.com/the-big-idea...

I haven’t been called the n-word since I’ve been on Bluesky. Not once. Guess how many times that happened to me on average per day at the Nazi bar? That’s puzzling to you? Bewildering? Or are you amused and using the improper word because you need someone to edit your skeets.

Oh my god the cop on horseback ran him over

Mass protests are an implicit threat of potential violence even when they are entirely peaceful. They serve to keep state power in check by demonstrating “there are more of us than you so fix your shit.” The state knows this, which is why its agents often respond to them with unprovoked violence.

Every accusation is a confession.

Okay, I'm not going to dunk on Ezra Klein for writing an abundance op-ed in this exact moment because I'm sure he couldn't plan it around national events. But the timing still illustrates the problem with "abundance" and other policy-focused politics - it's so emotionally and ideologically inert.

In itself it's not the biggest thing but Congress specifically passed a law requiring ICE to allow access to members of Congress because of Trump's antics in the first term. This isn't even norms. It's violating black letter statute law.

the issue is not just ICE. we can live free and safe. or we can have police like we have right now. we cannot do both

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.
