this is such good news. i think it is also an opportunity for democrats to state forthrightly that when they win power again everyone responsible for this crime will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law and will face the american people to answer for their lawlessness

Among many other things (like the fact that it’s false or at least massively, wildly overbroad), this is the kind of talk that I suspect makes some parents terrified of their kids getting this diagnosis, which prevents them from getting the help they need to be as happy as possible.

I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition — and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

We've reached the point in our descent into fascism where the Jewish governor's house getting firebombed on Passover by a guy trying to bash his head in with a sledgehammer is overshadowed by the story of the President saying he wants to build foreign gulags for US citizens.

We're in The Bad Place, folks. The existence of an overseas gulag to which you - yes, you personally - can be sent with no recourse marks the end of a whole period of American history. There's no going back after this. Even if these guys are defeated, the new order will have to look much different.

Exiling people beyond the protection of US law without due process is not only unconstitutional, it's a rejection of the entire American revolutionary project. Sending people "beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences" is one of the grievances enumerated in the Declaration of Independence.

The French Lieutentant's Woman (1981) joins the short list of Movies Better Than The Book. The film fixes the problems with Fowles' novel (turgid prose, authorial voice that thinks it's more clever than it is) and improves on the conceit with a parallel story about the actors making the movie.

The government has filed a declaration in the Abrego Garcia case reiterating its assertions that he is detained by El Salvador on its own “sovereign, domestic authority” and implicitly not subject to recall by the United States. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

On a recent flight my seatmates learned I was a writer and asked my opinion on AI. They didn't understand genAI is based on work stolen from authors, and they DEFINITELY didn't know about the energy costs. Both shocked them. People just don't know.
