New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism “'I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable,' Judge Young fumed. 'I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this.' More of this, please"

I think if you’re a lawmaker calling for U.S. military action against Iran, you should be required to post a verified video of yourself pointing it out on an unlabeled map and offering at least an undergraduate level summary of the past five years of Iranian foreign policy.

Justice Sotomayor's dissent in Skrmetti (which she's now reading from the bench) is deeply pained, accusing her colleagues of abandoning "transgender children and their families to political whims" and badly damaging "bedrock" principles of equal protection. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

I don’t care what city or town you live in. If these guys jumped out of an unmarked van and grabbed you on the street, would you just assume they’re ICE or FBI? Would you willingly comply with their orders and get inside the van? THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS. THIS IS NOT AMERICA.

Parnas: He sends the Marines into American cities not to protect us, folks, but to silence us. He ignores court orders like they’re optional. He surrounds himself with loyalists who exist solely to carry out his will. This is a leadership style that’s called authoritarianism.

If you're so afraid of firearms that the very sight of one being held in someone's hands causes you to consider opening fire on them, you shouldn't be carrying a firearm or being providing any sort of "security". These things are not totems against evil, they are lethal weapons...

Tonight, I'll go home and sleep in my bed. I have a lawyer, I'll get due process. But Edgardo, whose arm was ripped from mine by ICE agents, has none of those things. That's why I'll keep coming back to court, week after week, to make sure that people's rights are protected.

Padilla: I was forced to the ground, first on my knees and then flat on my chest. And as I was handcuffed and marched down a hallway repeatedly asking, why am I being detained? Not once did they tell me why. I pray you never have a moment like this

Fox News host Will Cain: "The 'No Secret Police Act' would ban local, state, and federal law enforcement from covering their faces when interacting with the public. Officers would also have to wear identifying information on them, like name tags. Hard to believe this is real!"

white christian fascism is not “fringe”. it's inspired by huge networks of churches, media and doctrine. it's enabled by the state. it's excused by liberals. Boelter wasn't a confused weirdo. he is the logical conclusion of a now mainstream christofascist formation.

This “both sides” business is more than I can stand! Apparently, not calling for Luigi to get the death penalty = decades of right wing violence. 🤥 Meanwhile they say, “you shouldn’t hate people who disagree with you!” What is the proper response to those who question your right to exist? 🤔🤨😣

The rightwing Christian assassin of Melissa Hortman and her husband is also a dog-killer like self-proclaimed Christian Kristi Noem. The cruelty they inflict in service of their god, without any remorse — on even the helpless innocent — should worry us all.

The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered. Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again. Their inaction is deadly.

Cuomo doesn’t just get to rehabilitate himself from sexual harassment because he’s rich and powerful. He gets to because he’s a man. It’s the same situation for everyday, ordinary men, while women from all walks of life are not just denied justice but punished for asking for it
