ICE arresting people at deportation hearings encourages people not to go and keep up with their legal status. they’re literally creating more people in an undocumented status on purpose.

We need more of this energy:

"The office no longer had a permanent overnight forecaster after... cuts ordered by the Department of Government Efficiency, the initiative led by Elon Musk..." Americans are dying because of this incompetence! www.nytimes.com/2025/05/16/w...

The “critics say” thing is the last refuge of both-sidesism, and both-sidesism is not reporting. Just gesturing at two utterances is a supplicative dance. www.stopthepresses.news/p/news-outle...

In re: RFK Jr. and measles: <<We started to hear more open talk during Covid of, “Maybe we should just let it cull the herd.” I don’t think we have reckoned enough with the fact that a lot of people now more openly believe in these eugenics-inflected ideas.>> www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

*me, lying facedown on the bed, yelling into the mattress: "WHY DO THOSE OF US WHO DIDN'T FUCK AROUND ALSO HAVE TO FIND OUT"

Glory!

This is impoundment, it is illegal, and that should be in the headline www.npr.org/2025/05/02/n...

I’m still baffled at how America took one of the basic principles of the presidency — the occupant shouldn’t be able to benefit financially from the office — and just said, nah, that just doesn’t count for this one guy.
