I’ve covered death row cases for nearly a decade and witnessed several executions. What happened to Christa Pike wasn’t an anomaly. It could happen anywhere. With another execution planned for this week in Texas, let me explain why. THREAD 🧵

Just as a practical matter I wonder how Dallas County inmates clear the voter ID hurdle (which to be clear should not exist). I’m sure jail ID is not on the list, and letting everyone access their property for their state ID sounds like a nightmare.

It’s really much easier to charge a nominal price. People trust you more.

Those of us who oppose apartheid, ethnic cleansing, and genocide should leave the word “Zionism” alone. We oppose apartheid, ethnic cleansing, and genocide. Keep the record clean. It’s wrong no matter who’s doing it or why.

very grim but the reflexive way that fox news is defending rape this week is both nearly identical to the kavanaugh period (can't trust her because she doesn't remember/she changed her mind) and proof that victim-blaming is the north star of state media even when the case is separate from government

“Originalism is an incoherent doctrine. It allows you to prove anything. Thus what it amounts to is a ritual invocation of the Founders, gesturing at this or that piece of text, before delivering whatever conclusion was approved on Fox News the night before.” www.liberalcurrents.com/we-have-no-s...

We Have No Supreme Court

The philosophical incoherence of originalism prevents the Court from performing its core functions as a supreme court.

Abortion is reproductive healthcare, because sometimes having a child can literally kill you. And I cannot tell you how it angers me that at the same time, Black women like Tierra Walker dying, RFK cut funding for research into infant and mother mortality, to fund his security detail.

I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life. If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

In 2014, I interviewed a Columbia University student who went from class to class carrying the mattress she was raped on—a protest performance piece to remind college administrators what they put on her shoulders. Twelve years later, we still expect women on college campuses to carry that weight.

He very sincerely is not. He may be distancing himself from an imaginary boogeyman that has been created to terrify (grand)parents, but he is absolutely dedicated to the health, safety, and full inclusion of trans kids and all Texans.

Maybe I’m old but I’d expect to be offered coffee at a job interview. Or frankly in any office. Bringing my own coffee would suggest that I don’t believe the place to be capable of basic hospitality. You bring your own coffee to the DMV.

I would almost guess that it’s just a straight up jealousy that anyone has escaped the forced masculinity that has been imposed on conservative men.

Having worked so hard to deny that “environmental racism” is anything more than a silly cudgel to create white guilt down at the local colleges, Dave finds out that not only is it a real thing but that somehow there’s not enough of it to protect him from data centers! Rough day for Dave.

It’s not “third-country deportation,” it’s an extraordinary rendition, complete with torture and enforced silence by the “host” country’s thugs. And it’s a direct consequence of never imposing punishment on the CIA for doing this during the War on Terror.

Witnesses say men were hooded and beaten in Equatorial Guinea. The autocratic government there is a partner in President Trump’s deportation program.
