Worth noting that this passed by one vote and two Democratic congresspeople have died in office in the last six weeks.

This is what happens when too many people would rather hurt others than help themselves. Literally nobody in America is benefitting from this.

In explaining the legal and clinical aspects of lethal injections, “Secrets of the Killing State” is far from sterile. @corinnabarrettlain.bsky.social lays out her fact-based narratives in stomach-churning detail, while also plainly sharing her analysis of the facts with readers.

Roses are red Violets are homely

There it is.

“are you wearing the—?” “the habeas boots? the boots in which I carry all my habeas petitions just in case I get disappeared to the gulag in el salvador? yeah, yeah I am.”

1) Ouch. I mean, OUCH. 2) WTF.

Residents of Texas' 18th congressional district will go almost an entire year without any representation in congress

i think the craziest part about trumps 2nd term so far is we are only 78 days into it

Winter is coming.

I'm not a lawyer, but it seems like SCOTUS just said the government is allowed to disappear anyone it wants from the street and throw them into a Central American torture pit as long as they give the victims a chance to say "wait, what" before the most conservative district court in the system?

Nintendo can get around the tariffs by using a floating barge with claw machines just outside US waters You can take a boat and pay $450 for unlimited attempts to win a Switch 2 from a claw machine If you win, it counts as “personal treasure,” exempt from tariffs under maritime salvage laws

ah, yes, the ole “keep a habeas petition in your pocket just in case you get disappeared” theory of due process

The money is going to what now

I want the 90 Day Fiance spinoff with Belinda and Pornchai. #WhiteLotus

The fires of hell are not hot enough for the people who did this to him and so many others. They WANTED innocent people to be caught up in this cruelty. That's why this evil government insisted on no due process.

Well this seems like a fantastic plan. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/04/h...

it’s weird that we’re staring down the second unprecedented economic catastrophe in five years and instead of a novel coronavirus that will go on to kill millions of people this one is just “no one was willing to tell him no”

Because engaging with their demands for civil debate is pointless

Trump 2024: Millions and millions of you are going to be screwing in little screws to make iPhones.

President Trump's executive actions are having real-world consequences for trans youth and the families who love them. No one should have to navigate court battles to access necessary medical care.

woman: leave me alone men: women are so hard to read

BRENNAN: The countries seem kind of random. Why are the Heard and McDonald islands, which don't export to the US and are quite literally inhabited by penguins, why do they face a 10% tariff. Did you use AI to generate this? LUTNICK: Heh heh heh. No.

Lutnick: "The army of millions and millions of human beings screwing in little screws to make iPhones -- that kind of thing is going to come to America."

FBI Uncovers Al-Qaeda Plot To Just Sit Back And Enjoy Collapse Of United States

I know crashing the economy on purpose seems harsh, but it’ll all be worth it when the seventh Little Mermaid is white

pretty crazy they straight up told the country that they would crash the economy and no one really brought it up or cared

“liberation day” and it’s just me getting banned by nextdoor

Attorney General Seeks Death Penalty For All UnitedHealthcare Customers

NEW - Last week, a federal judge said that extreme heat in Texas prisons is "plainly unconstitutional." I thought it was worth looking at one of the biggest reasons Texas prisons don't have air conditioning: Former Senator-turned-Houston Mayor John Whitmire. www.chron.com/culture/arti...
