Each time it seems we’ve possibly reached peak depravity with this cult, they up-level, e.g., posing with thumbs up in front of a gulag with disappeared people — the vast majority of whom have no apparent criminal record — & making fun of a clearly emaciated person.

Notably, in his media availability in El Salvador, @vanhollen.senate.gov truthfully keeps saying that Abrego Garcia was "illegally abducted" and "disappeared" instead of the more antiseptic, and factually incorrect, "deported."

The entire POINT is to cultivate an obedient press and docile population that accepts accusations without pushback. The fact that the administration’s accusations are increasingly overtly ass-damp is a feature, not bug.

ICE has just sent an innocent 19-year old young man named Merwil Gutiérrez to El Salvador to die in the same concentration camp. He wasn’t even their target, and they kidnapped him anyway. Jesus Christ, people. Wake up.

The President stood in the Oval Office yesterday and declared that he wants to send "homegrown" Americans to a foreign gulag.....and the NYT doesn't even have a single standalone story about it. I continue to not understand what undergirds the bizarre decisionmaking of their masthead editors.

I also wrote a bit about how the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) is delivering a lot of the "abundance" in broadband that Ezra Klein claims to be looking for. He just didn't mention it because he either didn't do research, or it contradicted his book thesis. Neither of which reflect well on Klein

We knew exactly what this administration was going to do because it was written in Project 2025. Folks can be surprised at how quickly it has moved, but no one can act like they didn't know.

A gay makeup artist. A father & sheet metal union apprentice. A teenager seeking asylum. What do they have in common? Trump’s secret police disappeared them to a gulag in El Salvador & won’t bring them back. Andry José Hernández Romero Kilmar Ábrego García Merwil Gutiérrez. Remember their names.

12 Dem Senators and 48 Dem House members voted for the Laken Riley Act—allowing US Govt to deport immigrants on the mere accusation of a crime. As you see those 60 Dems complain about Mahmoud Khalil, Rumeysa Ozturk, or Kilmar Abrego Garcia, among many more—please know they enabled this fascism.

“gangs” in the form of hierarchical criminal enterprises are effectively an urban legend. The concept functions almost exclusively as a tool for prosecutors to apply conspiracy charges and longer sentences to crimes committed by minorities.

How Did This Suburb Figure Out Mass Transit? “Transit ridership is off the charts in Brampton, Ontario, despite its typical low-density suburban layout. Here’s how the city got residents to get on the bus.” (spoiler: They ran more frequent buses. Your city can too.)

If Democratic congressional leadership don’t lead an en masse halt to all legislative business after today, I don’t know why they’re worth supporting. What moment could more demand a response of intractable and tedious opposition? Shut it all down, and refuse to budge.

Part of me is increasingly scared of commenting on politics here, but also a liberal Jewish Governor and his family were firebombed at home following a Passover Seder. This is not an unrelated type of event to sending unwanted citizens to foreign concentration camps. Silence feels like complicity.

You don’t have to be particularly sharp to decipher the code here. But if you need someone to say it, this is a major technology company and a sizable defense and intelligence contractor publicly declaring, with only the thinnest patina of deniability, that its cause is white nationalism.

The 30 permanent and 20 seasonal employees of Great Basin National Park serve 150,000 visitors a year, an industry which generates more than $10 million in visitor spending and is responsible for two-thirds of White Pine County's sales tax revenue. "Negative productivity" indeed.

i do not think the mainstream press is equipped or capable of covering ideological white nationalists and eugenicists as such, or even capable of noting that this is what they are. it is related to the wide belief that racism is simply a matter of manners.

I call it trying to prevent Trump from establishing a durable authoritarian regime. democrats should be singularly focused on being the opposition party, and that means refusing to collaborate with Trump on anything, at least without winning major concessions and checks on his power
