Disappearing people without any due process is fascism — full stop. I’m sick to my stomach and we all should be.

I’m not generally a fan of cultural/academic boycotts — but Gary Wilder makes a thoughtful & thought-provoking case here for giving it a try at a moment of urgency when its not always obvious how to have agency www.insidehighered.com/opinion/view...

Every time I read about these law firms caving I think about the sporting goods store owner in the Sopranos who got in hock to Tony and how Tony’s crew ended up cleaning out his store and bankrupting him …. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bust_Out

Oh, this is what we're talking about today? "Birth rates" is a white supremacist dog whistle, full stop. If I hear any of you dweebs whine about declining birth rates, you will catch a swift block.

Don't you dare have a nickname you prefer, then. Or even a shortening of your name. Maybe students need to start reporting all of those, too.

People learn nothing. Arendt wrote so clearly about the increasing targetting of people, starting with non-nationals, then dual nationals, then a succession of undesirable nationals. Nothing will protect you. Fascism requires an ever larger circle of enemies to blame for its own failings.

Probably for the same reason they've pulled their punches about Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia being falsely held in a concentration camp in El Salvador www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Just another example of the genius level of the 47 administration. And yes, Rubio is the brainiac of the bunch. #DemVoice1

I used to select Dem primary candidates based on policy. Now I will aggressively try to destroy any Dem who says "we need to look forward not backward" and fervently support anyone who says "I will see these motherfuckers prosecuted and jailed if it's the last thing I do."

Maybe this is why the attempted coup in South Korea was unsuccessful. The former president is in prison now. While we have a dictator.

Keep talking about the Signal security lapse at the Pentagon. The media may have forgotten about it, but the voters have not.

In any functioning democracy the elimination of an extant department that protects children from lead poisoning would be a game ender for the entire administration under which it occurred. I’ll expect a strong statement from Chuck Schumer and some fundraising texts.

“The Salvadoran president offered to turn the CECOT into an extension of the U.S. prison system in exchange for a payment of $20,000 per individual per year.” The two presidents are basically slave traders in drag. english.elpais.com/internationa...

It’s surreal how fast the United States has fallen into a dictatorial regime. Checks and balances are gone, the president disappears innocent people into foreign prison camps, words get banned, and the Overton window shifts at light speed. I honestly wonder these days when they will come for me.
