HASSAN: What is habeas corpus? NOEM: Habeas corpus is a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country HASSAN: That's incorrect

holy shit

it's funny everyone is just pretending the law doesn't exist when it comes to the TikTok ban

xAI blaming a new hire for changing the system prompt without asking first is, if true (it isn't) an indictment of xAI's access control practices and not the new hire

Donald "No Responsibility" Trump is trying to blame Biden and Pete Buttigieg for current air traffic control problems. Meanwhile, back in the real world . . . Republicans in Congress REFUSED Buttigieg’s call for funding more air traffic controllers. And Trump/DOGE then stepped in and fired many.

poilievre saying he can still win it if mike pence has the courage

obviously Trump lies his ass off constantly but I’m convinced that, also, people under Trump are feeding him bullshit to avoid getting yelled at every chance they get

[David Attenborough watching me trying to chase down an ice cream truck in my flip flops] Astounding.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are the greatest enemies of freedom of speech in America in the history of the country

Trump administration, 2018: "The United States reaffirms as policy its refusal to recognize the Kremlin’s claims of sovereignty over territory seized by force in contravention of international law."

Weird that the people who lost their minds over Hilary Clinton’s emails seem totally unbothered by SecDef Tipsy McStagger leaking classifed to pretty much everyone he knows.

“If I were any one of America's enemies, looking at our country, I would think this is my opportunity."

the thing about Catholic politics is they really don't map nearly onto conventional American axes, for any number of reasons. The most conservative possible pope will be far to the left on immigration and the death penalty, the most liberal possible pope will be far to the right on homosexuality.

Once again, I was left to wonder: was Pete Hegseth signal chatting military attack plans to everyone but me?? Am I the one that’s insecure, or is it his communication practices that are insecure?

I'm forming a theory on how the pernicious influence of the new left is a unifying explanation for these types of traps. But I don't have a theory for why housing and transportation are more amenable to progressive policy nerds.

with friends like these who needs the murdochs

My hot (and irritated) take: In 2025, it should be illegal to send forms by email that the recipient needs to print out, fill in by hand, scan, save, and email back.

It is not kosher to eat Beast Boy.

the reason people want to believe that the modern US has always been this bad, and that there is no escalation that is unique to either Trump term, is because it relieves them of any obligation to do more than they already were while feeling really fucking smug about it

These people are barbarians burning down Rome for the insurance money

A co-worker of mine (who is a judge), traveled by train from Montana to North Dakota for work this week. The train made a stop in Havre, MT, where ICE agents—armed and dressed in full military-style tactical gear—boarded the train.

an El Salvador gulag, 2026, three men are talking about what they were sent there for "I opposed Elon Musk," the first says. "I supported Elon Musk," the second says. "I *am* Elon Musk," the third says.

👀WSJ editor Emma Tucker ordered staff to pull all links and halt social posts to its profile on @status.news, with an editor writing in a message Emma wanted it "completely desurfaced," via @breakermedia.bsky.social

Fuck the police.

Jesus Christ, man

Ex-Republican turned Democrat: I hate everything this party stands for, but Trump is the Devil incarnate and I will stop at nothing to see him cast back into Hell. Ex-Democrat turned MAGA: Like the Donald, I became a victim of vicious lawfare after a mere 255 "allegations" of rape and tax fraud...

Update: 96-year-old’s bank account was cleaned out by Social Security on the grounds that he had been dead for a while and they were reclaiming benefits SS had paid to the allegedly but not actually dead man. He now has no money. DOGE strikes again. Anybody know a lawyer for this?

Waiting for Dick Cheney to post "eat the rich"

Congrats to TurboTax, which has worked for two decades to stop Americans from being able to file taxes for free. www.propublica.org/article/insi...

Twitter is real life the way making decisions while high is real life. You are totally out of step with reality, but the debts you incur are very real

It’s cool how the conservative legal movement has gone from “the state must stay in its lane of only regulating where there is a clear public interest” to “we should make civil society illegal”
