It’s a good thing Congress isn’t alive to see this

I am looking for congressional leaders to come out quickly and forcefully against this. We need unequivocal opposition. We need theatric demonstrations of defiance. We need to see leadership. Trump will steamroll us all if we display weakness. Where are our leaders?

This is illegal. I understand you can't just say that as some sort of talismanic phrase. It being illegal didn't stop it, and won't stop the next naked exercise of power. But it is illegal, and it's important that we remember that. There need to be consequences for all of this.

The thing about the Khalil case is that it's very very good that he's free now but you can't have it take three months between "the government kidnaps you off the street for no basis reason whatsoever" and "a judge makes them let you go." You just can't.

Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium. ICE says it wasn’t them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? They’ve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.

What’s common knowledge in your field but shocks outsiders? It takes about twice the effort to make a functioning door in a video game as it does to make flying superpowered character that shoot lasers and bombs.

Once in New Haven I passed by Oliver Stone walking the other way in a crosswalk and had no idea who he was. When I got to the other side someone said "Hey, that's Oliver Stone".

This is an out-of-control paramilitary agency, taking orders from radical white supremacists, operating outside the law and attacking Americans and states. Shut the whole thing down

The military isn’t being employed to carry out an immigration policy. The immigration policy, and especially the way the administration is choosing to carry it out, is an excuse to call out the military.

I always thought of this as "go time" personally, but Clown Time has a nice ring to it. My productivity strategy over the years has basically become to spend 75% of my time laying the groundwork for clown time, 5% of my time doing the actual thing, and then the remaining 20% recovering.

Trump's anti-market economic worldview on display. He believes that spending money is a sign of weakness. This is the same logic as his claim that last week that the precipitous decline in shipping volumes at the country's ports is "a good thing, not a bad thing," because "we lose less money."/1

No sir, I am not offering to bribe you to get out of this parking ticket, that would be corrupt bribery. I am merely offering to pay $200 for that half-eaten sandwich you are holding right now, an entirely different and non-bribe related payment that I have valued based on how incredibly hungry I am
