I know the nausea of talking to a man after the 11th Circuit stayed his execution. Promising to visit him. And then the Supreme Court lifts the stay and he’s tortured to death before you can even apologize for failing him. I have been through this more than once.

They're holding up a major escalation in Iran and a crackdown on abortion until after the midterms to limit political damage. To the extent that the last two years have been a right-wing smash-and-grab operation, the next two will be worse.

When an agency like ICE builds an environment where red flags don’t matter, where violence is minimized, where accountability is optional, this is what it produces. What happened in Texas isn’t a one‑off tragedy. It’s a system functioning exactly as designed.
