It is bizarre the way people with guns, bulletproof vests, riot shields, tanks, and other military gear act like rocks are an equal threat. It’s madness! If you are scared of rocks and think the punishment for having them thrown at you should be death, you shouldn’t be in law enforcement!

Reader, in the capital, it is not “safe enough.”

ICE is now changing tactics and arresting people who have been granted asylum hearings.   This is both a violation of US & international law that demands immediate attention from all New York elected officials & underscores the urgent need for legal service providers to be at all of these cases.

Jeff Bezos appears to be wearing the wrong waistcoat for his wedding. This is a dinner suit (aka a tuxedo) and thus requires a dress waistcoat, which is cut lower on the body. He's wearing a business vest, which is designed for business suits. Needs a formal waistcoat like the one on the right.

Yet another ICE impersonator caught. How many are they not catching? As @MarshaBlackburn @SenJohnson & Sexton try to protect masked unidentified vigilantes with legislation— we should be banning this dangerous insanity instead.

So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

looking forward to some parents suing to demand segregated schools because integration violates their religious beliefs

Kenneth Chesebro, the lawyer who helped orchestrate the fake elector scheme to overturn the 2020 election, has been permanently disbarred in New York.

this court says that allowing EPA to regulate carbon emissions is a "major question" that demands congressional debate. but allowing the president to, with a flick of the wrist, end a straightforward constitutional right is something that must be allowed to stand?

If Jeff Bezos can afford to rent Venice for a $50 million wedding, he can afford to pay his fair share in taxes.

Birthright citizenship is a Constitutional RIGHT. Any attack on it is an attack on us all. This is an attempt by far-right justices to attack immigrant communities and remove protections from any American who questions Trump. Your rights are nonnegotiable. We can’t compromise on that basic fact.

If you have to put this much into convincing people that your bombing was successful

If a foreign power killed as many American children as RFK is about to, we’d bomb them into a flat sheet of glass

Beloit, WI revitalized its waterfront and chose this way to celebrate it: by bringing to life Georges Seurat's "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte."

This is a Hall of Fame reader comment on a very reactionary op-ed about Zohran Mamdani's victory that was published in my local paper today.

Vaccination schedules on the CDC website have already started changing under RFK Jr. So we published a guide to the evidence-based vaccine recommendations in place *before* all 17 members of the advisory panel were abruptly dismissed by the new admin. www.scientificamerican.com/article/see-... 🧪

Three years without the protections of Roe v. Wade. Three years of cruelty. Three years of women denied care, criminalized for miscarriages, and forced to cross state lines in crisis. Three years of the GOP screaming “freedom” while snatching away our bodily autonomy. (1/2)

I miss him so much. M On the 17th anniversary of his death, I share some of his best work. - KCM

It’s wild that in the video DHS posted in an effort to make the beating of an innocent landscaper (with 3 marine sons) seem justified there’s a masked ice goon pointing a gun at a random car passing by and they don’t seem to think it matters at all

Color me unsurprised. These must just be the first three that made national news.

FAFO

This is great campaign messaging. No wonder the establishment is so shook.

I don't even go here, but Mamdani wins

A federal officer cannot be “doxxed.” The public has a right to know who is operating in our government, especially if they have the power to imprison someone.

Funny, that.

I hope someone slips those Marines the names and home addresses of the goons who brutalized their father. In the meantime, their GFM: www.gofundme.com/f/justice-fo...

Every 5 years, the US wants to bomb a country to “save its women,” while stripping away rights from women across the US

The American people were lied to about Vietnam, with tragic consequences. The American people were lied to about Iraq, with tragic consequences. The American people are being lied to again today. We cannot allow history to repeat itself.

If you vote for or endorse Andrew Cuomo you hate women

Cable news suddenly keeps mentioning “sleeper cells” in Iran. Heard it at least 3 times on CNN. Unbelievable 2003-style reporting malpractice, just spitballing ways of making Iran seem like a threat to Americans sitting at home watching tv

Amen. Always hated leaving parties.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers. Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they? Hello?

Just working on my book and thinking about how LeVar Burton is probably the most beloved and unproblematic famous person alive in america today and I hope he’s doing well.

10/10 loved this book

ICE Illegally Tries To Impose Unlawful Rules on Congressional Visits

Two weeks you say?

Make sure to read and share Pascal’s sharp, important piece on what’s happening right now: It’s not getting the attention of other things but you can see a lot of forces are intent on wrecking devastation on Native voting rights. Tragic, but also crucial to see what tribes are doing in response:

Feel like this speaks to the idea that people who interact with LLMs a lot feel lonelier than people who do not.

Sigh
